Milestone

Weston took a few steps on his own tonight. No, I did not get it on video...stay tuned.
The days are getting shorter and wet...which is actually making my days really long since less daylight and more rain mean staying inside. Weston always wants out as you can see...



Had to get the famous mohawk look going. A bath is one of his favorite things and when you tell him "bath time" and start walking towards the bathroom, he will almost beat you to the tub. Wes is so proud of himself when he does something like crawling in the laundry basket or tub all by himself.
Feeding himself is nearly a must, and he has figured out that if you put something on a spoon and hand it to him, the spoon goes in his mouth. He doesn't always have good aim, and sometimes he has a little too much fun, like he did here with his oatmeal.

Fall is here!

It was a beautiful Saturday so we headed out for Weston's first visit to the pumpkin patch. It took a while before he would let me set him down, but once he figured out that the big orange things wouldn't hurt him, he was crawling all over them.





Another trip to Montana

While Danny was working in Missoula, Weston and I went for a visit and spent the weekdays at Grandma & Grandpa's house in Melrose. It was pretty cold and we even had some snow, so Grandma found him a new hat. He helped Grandpa with yard work......including inspecting his green tomatoes (while sticking out his tounge, a new favorite trick).
He managed to get himself stuck a few times...
...and has figured out how to climb in the tub all by himself. So far if I pull the shower curtain closed, he cries and thinks he can't get into it anymore. Just a matter of time before he starts pulling it back and discovering that the tub is still there.

California trip

Weston and I made a quick weekend trip to California to pick up some cows and a horse...while we were there he attended his first football game. He was really interested in watching the cheerleaders until half time when he fell asleep.
He wasn't too happy about waking up after the game and wasn't too interested in congratulating his cousin Anthony on a good game.He does like to watch the new additions to our little cow herd.
