Morning at Home

This morning Colin and I stayed home and hung out. He is getting some new teeth and trying to get over a cold but he was still in a great mood. Here is what our morning consisted of.

Colin rocked Curious George while watching ELMO~
Colin helped me vacuum. Mainly he would hold the cord so I couldn't go any farther and laugh. In this picture he is turning it on, I wish I could have taken a picture 2 seconds later when he jumped against the wall because it scared him.

Savannah was peacefully sleeping on her rug when Colin came in with his airplane spinning in her face. She didn't stay there for very long.

Being Adorable - then off to bed.

Weekend Activities

Matt and I went to the Husker game on Saturday. They sure are fun and always amazing to see the die hard fans there. On Sunday Colin and I went to visit the newest members of the Hughes family. My brother Mark's dogs had puppies - 10 pure bread labs if anyone is interested in a puppy for a Christmas gift.

Enjoy the pics!

Halloween went well! We are recovering today from the late night.

Gorilla Reminder

I just love this photo...How things have changed

Gorilla Update

Yesterday Colin and I could not stay inside when it was 73 degrees outside, so we made a trip to the zoo. Our route at the zoo usually includes the tigers, the bears, the gorilla house and the aquarium. We started at the tigers and Colin growled at them he also growled at the bears. As we ventured into the Gorilla house I was excited to see his reaction. The gorillas are always SO entertaining. We were walking in and there was no one around besides a gorilla right at the glass. I put Colin's stroller right in front of it....needless to say not a good idea. Colin started crying and that was it for the Gorilla house, well at least he recognizes them now. The big excitement was the aquarium. He loved running through there and saying fish. The penguins were the best. Stay tuned for our zoo inspired Halloween Costume!

Happy Halloween everyone!

Arbor Day Lodge

This weekend the whole Hughes gang headed to Nebraska City to the Lied Lodge. The kids have so much fun. This year on Saturday we made our way to the pumpkin patch where Colin liked sitting on the pumpkins. We also went into their Apple store (no computers here) and Colin tried to take a bite out of every apple. We didn't stay in there for very long! Saturday night all of the kids and dad's went swimming. The game of chicken was played all night and Colin loved the pool. He cried when we would take him out. Matt decided he had to get out when his lips were a dark shade of purple. He had a lot of fun though. I thought for sure he would sleep all night after that long day...at 4:30 he woke up and said "done"! The Steele family was a little sluggish on Sunday.

Matt's Family Visit

The new Omaha Pedestrian bridge!

Matt's parents and sister came to visit this past weekend. I didn't have my camera out this weekend so I am borrowing Grandma Steele's photos that she took. It was so good to see Matt's family and Colin always has so much fun with them. He was looking all over for them once they left. We will see them again as we head North for Thanksgiving.
