11 Months

You are continuing to master your furniture cruising skills and have also started to buzz around the house pushing your walking toy. You go so fast on the wood floor and it is terrifying but there have been no major incidents so far.

Within the last four weeks your top two teeth have made their way out. You officially have a "toothy" grin now. I think you have two more on top that are about to poke through. Now that you officially have four teeth you have started eating some cafeteria food at school like pot pie, steamed veggies and mashed potatoes. 

Your new trick is "where's the birdie". We have a wooden bird on our mantel that you are fascinated with. When we say where's the birdie your face lights up and you turn and point directly at it. When we say where is mommy or daddy you look really confused:) Oh well at least you know where the birdie is!

Sergeant Daddy


Today your Daddy was promoted to Sergeant. This was a huge accomplishment for him! Brox you and I are very lucky to have such an amazing guy in our life. In addition to his success in his career he is respected and loved by everyone and is going to be an amazing role model for you. We love you Sergeant Colunga!


Sporting Grandpa Jame's State Trooper hat. Looks pretty cute!

Fun Fest


On Saturday we went to Fun Fest at the Dallas Czech club. You had so much fun being passed around to everyone and crawling all over the dance floor with Braden and Mckinley. You took off crawling and the priest almost tripped over you. After that I tried to keep you closer to the table but you were ready to cruise around with the big kids.

First School Pictures

I was so excited when I found out you were having school picture day. I carefully selected your outfit and even sent a comb with you to school! Even though these are extremely cheesy school pics with dorky backgrounds I will cherish them forever because you look so darn cute! (I especially love the fake fall foliage in the second pic) Nana and YaYa are excited about their prints to. 




All Star Carnival

 We walked over to St. Thomas Aquinas for their annual All Star Carnival. You tried ice-cream for the first time and were a huge fan! We had some dinner, wine and ice-cream and you enjoyed listening to the music and watching all the kids run around like crazy. Fun family outing (even though Daddy stole tickets from a church fundraiser on accident)


Playground with Daddy and Uncle A

 We spent another day at the playground and this time Daddy and Uncle Adam got to join us. You love swinging  and hanging on the bars but are still a little unsure about the slide. I can't believe what a big boy you are. Seeing you get to interact with all the playground equipment made me realize you are not a baby anymore. Long gone are the days of you just laying on the blanket at the park. You are ready to explore and see the world!
