Lando/Sadness

Erica and Landon went back to Alaska on Saturday for her last year of school. We are really going to miss them a ton - it was a great summer! I know Erica's camera was broken, so I figured I better put up some Landon pictures for the family to see.

Landon really enjoyed this swing this last week. He laughed everytime he swung over to someone!
Here's Lando and his mom chillin' next to the tree. They look so much alike.
Landon loved hangin out on the sidewalk and grabbing everything he could: sticks, ants, grass, whatever. Erica kept having to stop him from putting stuff in his mouth.
These soccer balls were a big hit. Thanks Arctic Circle happy meals!
Here's a laughing guy in his pajamas. He has some ticklish thighs!
Landon and his wonderful Grandpa with a favorite toy, the remote. They were best buds this summer.
This was after a shower. His hair actually stayed sort of flat, and it made him look so different. We miss you guys already!

Videos

Erica showed me how to put up some videos. Some of these are old, but all are cute. I pretty much put these up for when I'm bored at work! Enjoy.

Relay and more

Here's a nice morning picture of Carter and his pal Abbey. He's a very snuggly baby - I'm not sure for how much longer though! He's starting to get very busy.
This is Landon's fun play center that Carter now also enjoys. He doesn't turn yet, but he plays with everything if we turn him. Look at his cute little chubby legs!
We were at the Relay for Life on Friday from 3:30 to about 10:30 (with a nap at 5)and both boys were so good! They played in the sand while we did luminaries, and took a few laps in the strollers. Here we are hanging out by Grandma's Montana Orthopedics tent.
These are Carter's cool pajamas from our friend Carrie. Kyle decided that when they were unbuttoned he looks like Elvis in a jumpsuit. It's ironic that Landon's cards are spread out behind him - sort of a "Viva Las Vegas" thing happening!
Tummy time! He's getting a lot better at tummy time, and he doesn't hate it as much now that he holds his head up so well. He likes to watch his aquarium toy and talk to it.

We went to a wedding reception on Saturday to see one of my best friends. Here's Carter and his "Aunt" Alicia. Her husband Aaron and Kyle are in the background. They got him some really cute stuff too - Thanks again!
I thought we needed a big smiling picture. Even when he's sad, he can always muster up a smile for his buddies!
What a little sleepy guy! He fell asleep with just his diaper on the other day, so Abb and Jord got him all nice and warm. He looks so cute with his hands clasped.
Abb, Jord, Erica, the boys, and Laney took a little trip to Emerson last Thursday. I think Carter enjoyed his future school. He went sliding with Jocko...
And flying with Abbey. I thought I had a picure of Landon, Erica, and Laney too, but it appears to be cut off. Anyway, Landon enjoyed the sand and Laney's leash. They have a good time while I'm at work!

Getting so big!

I (obviously) really like this onesie. He always looks so calm - just checking everything out.
Here's Carter's new favorite thing in the world - his thumb. He's getting pretty good at getting it jammed in his mouth and sucking on it like crazy!
This picture is a bit odd. I found a four leaf clover in the yard and put it on his head. Maybe it's a good omen for the lucky little guy.
Here's Carter having a nice chat with Grandpa. I like how you can see Landon pulling out grass and playing with it in the background.
This was right before we went outside. He was having a nice chat with Grandma indoors. He's just a happy baby!
This picture is funny. This is about 6:30 in the morning when I was about to change his diaper. He was making a very crazy face at me.
The boys love this book about Jango and Spike visiting the farm. I love how they are both really looking at the pages. They're going to be smart - I can tell.
Carter got a cute new outfit from Aunt Diane and Uncle Art on Saturday. I love the little pockets on the shorts! We had a very nice visit.
Here's another outdoor picture with my boy and my dog. We were just hanging out on a nice summer day. Could it get any better?
One of my best friends (Dana) came to visit on Saturday morning from Kalispell. She brought her little cutie, Jada, who is 9 months old. Check out that hair! Please don't check out my awesome look - pajamas.





New Toys

Grandma Patsy brought back these cool monkeys from Las Vegas. Carter (and Laney) have been having a good time with them!

Abb and Jord were having a good time taking pictures of this! They were so many different ones to choose from. I liked this face.
He sometimes tries to eat the monkey's face. There is a whole lot of bright green in this photo!
He really enjoys these new rattles that Erica got for Landon. They look like butterflies, and he holds them pretty well.
This picture just makes me laugh. Laners was rolling around above him and I barely got her crazy eyes in the frame! She always has to be next to her little man.

This is his duck that he plays with while I change his diaper in the morning. He loves that soft, silky edge.
My Aunt Diane and Uncle Art brought this new fun thing from my cousin Kathi for Carter on Saturday. He was a kicking fool - thanks Kathi and Josh!
It was so fun that he fell asleep under it on Sunday! I guess that he wore himself out being so big and strong.

Random Cute Stuff

Here's Carter hanging out with Grandpa in his new onesie. It says "What happens at Grandma's stays at Grandma's". Too cute!
Dad's teaching him one of his favorite things ever: how to play college football on Playstation!
Yeah! A fun little ride on Dad's shoulders. I think he enjoyed his time being tall.
I just thought this outfit was cute. My friend Carrie gave us the "Born for Basketball" romper and awesome shoes. He's really starting to enjoy his car seat toys.
Carter loved his Aunt Kelsie. They had a very good time together. Look at his crazy hair!
She was tickling him, and he thought it was so funny! We miss you Kels!
I love this big happy face picture. I was at work when they took this, so I'm not sure what he was enjoying so much.
Carter was trying on Grandpa's hat, backwards because he's so cool. This is such a big smile - I'm really glad I caught it!
I think he was chatting with Abb or Jord here. He's started to talk really loud and move his tongue all around. He tells some lovely stories.
He looks so cool here in his "Grandpa Rules" shirt and green sunglasses. I'm not sure how long he put up with those!
This is a bad picture of a very funny face he was making at Aunt Kelsie. He would put his chin and eyes down and give her sort of an evil little smile. It was hilarious.
This picture of the cousins is so cute. They love to stare at eachother. Landon likes to grab him too as you can tell!

Summer Fun

Abb, Jord, and I took the boys and Laney to C Street Park on Friday. They had a pretty good time there. They seemed to like the swings.
Here's Carter and his buddy Jordan in the pool on Saturday. He usually likes water, but this was a little chilly for him. He still liked being outside.
He did enjoy laying on the towel afterwards and spreading out to max capacity. He's a little goof.
Landon had a great time in the pool with his mom. He hung out with Jordan and some toys afterwards. His hair is really growing!

It's nice to hang out outside on those nice summer evenings. Even the mosquitos haven't been too bad lately.
Carter went to his first movie last weekend. We went to the Drive-In and watched the new "Harry Potter". He's such a good boy - had a bottle and went right to bed.
Wheee - some slide pictures! Landon was not so sure at first, but he did it. He'd much rather be walking in the grass.
Carter was a little surprised, but he seemed to enjoy it. Abb and Jord are great to have around!

July - August 2019

My friend Michelle was in town from Las Vegas. Her brother and sister-in-law always have a fun barbecue for everyone here in town. Dana, Jas...
