A Week of Fun!!

We have had lots of fun this past week so I decided to post some pictures! The first ones are kind of random.

Collin just had to have his shoes and sun glasses on even though he was in his pj's without a shirt and we weren't going anywhere. I think he thought just maybe if he had them on then I would take him out of the house.

Collin's new favorite thing to do is watch Mickey Mouse Club house. He wont move from the couch for the entire 30min. It is so nice but I am going to have to be careful to limit how much he will watch a day. He would watch it all day long if I would let him. He fell asleep watching it the other day.
We drove to Oregon last wed. for a big family reunion. We went a couple days early so we decided to take a trip to the Portland Zoo. It was a lot of fun!

We rented this cool stroller for Collin. He loved it!


Sitting in the Eagles nest!



Riding a horse with Aunt Sarah!




I loved the Polar Bears. We got to see one jump into the water and swim around!





Riding on Uncle Greg's shoulders to see the monkeys!






Taking a ride on daddy's shoulders too!
The reunion was a lot of fun too. There was a lot of people so it was pretty crazy. I didn't get any pictures because I spent all my time chasing Collin around keeping him out of trouble. He loved being outside for about 3 days straight! Some of the things he did......Threw rocks in great grandpa's strawberries, used a push broom to sweep rocks, threw rocks at cars, ate the rocks, oh did i mention that he played with rocks!!!! He had so much fun! He would cry when we would open the door to the hotel room and say no ni night. He just wanted to be outside forever! I thought he would be horrible on the car ride home, but he was a little angel! Thank heavens for Scott being smart enough to buy a portable DVD player to hang on the back of the seat and a Mickey Mouse DVD! Lets just say I think I will hide that DVD for a long time. I am pretty much sick of listening to the same thing over and over, but whatever keeps him happy and it sure did!!
The next day after getting home from Oregon Scott and I just wanted to be lazy, but Collin wasn't having it. He of course wanted to go outside so we decided to be nice and take him to a splash pad. He loves playing with water right now so we thought he might enjoy it. He Loved it!



He would stand under the buckets that dump water!


When it would dump on him his face was so funny. This isn't a very good shot of it but it was so cute! He had his mouth wide open in shock and would run to us and then go do it again!

Playing with the fountains!


His cute little smile!!



We are having so much fun with Collin right now! Even though he is trouble he has such a cute personality! He is a joy to be around and is learning so much every day! He is the joy of our lives and we can't remember life without him!
