I couldn't stand it, had to give him a Christmas present early! He'll have the rest of his life having to wait until Christmas morning. :o)

He was afraid at first, but now he likes it. We wanted him to ride it outside, but now the weather is supposed to be cold. So, it looks like he'll ride inside and out.

See ya'll soon!

Canden was an Astronaut for Halloween this year. Friday, we went trick-or-treating downtown and Saturday we went to the Zoo! The weather was great... in the 60s!

No, he's not John Travolta... this is his "thumbs up".

Went to our annual Halloween (adult only) party this weekend. What a blast! Todd and I were Little Red Riding Hood and the Big Bad Wolf. Canden wasn't even scared of us when we got dressed up. It was a little weird feeding him dinner, though!

Canden helped us set the table the other night! I went to the closet to get paper plates for him, he grabbed them and put them on the table. He's getting so big! He's also a very spunky little boy and keeps us very busy.

Wow! It's amazing how fast time flies when kids start to walk. We'll be down at Christmas.

What a cute kid! And he looks fairly innocent.

He gets pretty excited over books.

Dad was VERY sick that night.

Big smile!

Grammy putting him to work at 15 months. :o)

The joys of a child learning to walk.

What's new:

Going back to Denver for the BBQ!
Mandy got a new job... more $$ too.
Canden is on the verge of walking. He's developed quite the personality and loves baths... getting used to the pool. He eats like a teenage boy already.... A LOT!
Short post, but I found the cord that connects the camera to the computer, so next post may not be so far off.
See you all at the BBQ!

He's One!

Over 4th of July we found out he likes Doritos.

This is his new cheezy smile that he started last week...silly!

Well, he has 4 teeth now!

He crawls, he walks while holding your hands, he's loud, and it's nearly impossible to change his diaper! :o)

What's new. He is growing pretty fast. He has learned how to scream too. We went to visit Grammy a few weeks ago and got to go to Evan's birthday party! We also got to see other people. He was just perfect on the plane and in the car... and he spent A LOT of time in the car. We will be back in May (for 2 weeks) and be able to see more people.

Todd is still working great and staying busy. He's home today due to plumbing issues... yuck! For those that don't know, our house was a rental for 10 years before we bought it; so there are surprises around every corner.

Looking forward to warmer weather so Canden can realize that there is a world outside our living room. haha

I blinked and he made a mess! :o)


Leave it to Metallica to put their copyright on their logo

He loves to stand all the time now.


We bought new clothes too!



Flava Flav!!!

This is the aftermath of his very first teether cookie. I had to wash him down twice AND change his clothes. haha

Grammy came up to watch the Bear while we went on vacation. Unfortunately, Canden was very sick the whole time we were gone. But, Grammy did a great job of taking care of things - of course!

We were pretty lucky to be able to go on a grown-up vacation!

Some new posts.... (delayed due to not being able to find that stupid cord that goes from the camera to the computer) heehee

Canden had his first same-age visitor for the Superbowl. He wasn't really too into sharing his toys. :o(

But, it was a fun time.

Hanging out with Dad before everyone came over for the Superbowl.

You can even see him hogging the toy.

He's a morning person!

January Visit

Grammy and Grandpa came up this weekend.











Sippy Cup Success!!















Went to the Sportsman's Show, so we had to dress for it!
