1st Zoo Trip

This weekend we took Colbie to the Seattle Zoo.  It was her first time and she had lots of fun despite the fact that traffic sucked, it was super packed with people, we didn't really feed her much and we couldn't find where we parked our car.  Can you tell it was not the best trip for Jon and I.  Atleast the weather was great!  Hopefully our next trip is better since we bought a year long membership=)


She was not afraid of anything!



She liked the gorillas

Watching the flamingos

The elephants were her favorite.  They were easy to see and they moved lots.

Can we see the zebras next Mom?

New Walker

For some reason Colbie has decided that walking while holding onto our fingers is more fun than her toy walker.  It is also much more painful on our backs so we created a new walker that works for everyone.  Colbie even gets to bring bear along!

This is our Snap N Go Stroller (the carseat snaps inside) which we no longer use for our big girl

Happy St Patty's Day

11 months

Just one more month and our baby will be a big one year old.  I can't believe how big our little angel is and how fast time flies.  We love you Colbie Ryan!

-She can't get enough walking (with help of course).  We have seen our first tantrums this month whenever we try to take a break from using the walker or walking her around while holding onto our fingers.....yikes.  This girl loves walking and also enjoys stepping on and kicking any item that's in her way. 
-Can stand alone briefly (about 5 seconds)
-Points at everything
-Can't help but shake it and sing along to any music she hears
-Has started making animal noises....so cute.  Can do a dog, squirrel (clicking sound, she prefers to do noises of animals she actually sees) and her favorite is a bird.  She says "ka, ka" we have many crows around our house.
-Lights up when we go outside.  We can't wait for the weather to improve (its been snowing)
-New favorite food: all types of berries.  She is starting to be a very picky eater.
-Is working on her two top teeth
-Can crawl up our very steep stairs

Cruising

Thanks Katie for giving us this walker!  Colbie has not stopped using it since we brought it home (just yesterday).  She loves it.  Not too bad for one days practice=)

Dancing Queen

Colbie has become a dancing queen.  She dances to any music she hears.  She really gets her arms into it and recently has started shaking her head and booty too, quite cute!

Best Friends

Although there were three adults taking photos at a rapid speed, we were still unable to get a picture of all three girls looking at the camera!  However these are much more fun!  They are so cute and are really starting to interact together.
