Family Portraits over Spring Break

The last weekend of Spring Break we went to Rockport to hang out with Lanny, Holly & the kids. We had a great time as we always do with them and at the beach!! We took family portraits while we were there. Holly and I had a great idea of taking them on the beach. We got everyone dressed and we went to the beach, it was still a little chilly and a little windy but we thought we would try. Colton fell asleep in the car on the way over and we get out and it was Freezing and Blowing 90 mph! Cody and Lanny thought we were nuts but went along with what we had invisioned. We walked down to the beach and it was way too windy and the tide was out and it just didn't look nice at all. We tried and it just didn't work like we had wanted it too. We went back to the house and took the pictures in front of the big beautiful oak tree they have in the front yard. They came out looking really nice. This summer we will try the family picture on the beach again.



Goofy kiddos!!
I Love the bond that the two of them have. It is so special!!!


St. Patrick's Day


St. Patrick's Day this year was during Spring Break. Aunt Chandra came up and visited for a couple days over our break. We had a great relaxing visit. Chandra, Colton and I met Cody at Hooter's on St. Patrick's Day and enjoyed our green beer. Colton was dressed in his green gear and looked adorable. This was his first trip to Hooter's.

About a week later we met Jon, Michelle and Cole at Hooter's. We had the boys take a picture with the girls. Colton had his Hooter's onesie on that Cody had gotten him a while back.
He sure is a McCutie!!!
Laughing!

Happy St. Patrick's Day from our happy family!

Daddy's Hat

Colton Loves Cody's hat! Well, he really just loves hats! He loves to pull down on the brims and chew on them. He enjoyed wearing his camo hat but now he has discovered how to take it off. He learned that quickly because we would put Cody's hat on him to play and he learned how to pull it off so he could hold it and play with it. I'm sure he is going to love wearing hats just like his Daddy does!
Watch me, I'm going to get that hat off!
See, I told you I would. This brim sure does taste yummy!
I'm ready to go fishing Daddy!! When is our first fishing trip?
   

6 Month Pictures

We took 6 month pictures of our little man. We set up our own studio in the living room and took pictures. We have been blessed with such a wonderful little boy. We love taking his pictures and we have so much fun doing it.

Let's Rodeo Houston

We took Colton for his first Rodeo experience in March with Uncle Jay & Aunt Shannon. The five of us had a great time walking around the grounds. We didn't go to a show but had a great time walking around. Colton did great and had a great time!
All dressed up in his jeans and button up shirt. This was his first time to sit in the stroller looking out and he really enjoyed it!


Family time at the Rodeo!

Valentine's Day

Happy Valentine's Day! We got Colton a few things for his first Valentine's Day. He now has a blue camo backpack with his name for us to take places and so Dad has a bag to carry instead of our Vera Bradley diaper bag. :)

Colton sent Penguins of Madagascar Valentine's to his friends and teachers at school.


Looking at all of his goodies he got for Valentine's Day from Mommy & Daddy!
Presents to Colton's teachers.
