PLEASE MEET DEVIN JACOB COLON

My sister-in-law Shasta had Devin Jacob Colon on Saturday January 10Th, 2009. He weight 8 pounds 2 ounces, 21 inches long. :)

I cant begin to explain how excited we are, its so crazy how fast time flies. It feels like Shasta was here yesterday for our wedding and was barley pregnant and now we have a wonderful new nephew. I feel like a crazy women making them send me pictures every 2 minutes lol. Its sad though that they live so far away. I wish we were all closer to watch our kids grow together, maybe one day. For now occational visits and pictures will have to do. I love my two newphews, and cant wait to squeeze them both.

Congrats Matt and Shasta....

Merry Merry Christmas!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Christmas day was crazy, even though we only went to two places after our house it seemed like forever.

We started our day at home opening the presents under the tree. At first Carson was all about it, ripping off the bows, shaking the boxes and playing with the toys still in the box lol. After awhile it was me opening his present because he was running around screaming. As you can tell I didn't put any of our house pictures up (that is for good reason lol)

Our 1st stop was my mom and dad (Grandma and Grandpa Colon) When we got there my mom was cooking too much food, by the time we left there I felt like a whale. Carson once again wasn't too interested in opening presents. He ended up getting lots of toys and clothes. My favorite was the telephone that he got, every time he is at my parents he runs to their phone and turns the speaker phone on and plays with all the buttons. They thought it would be a great thing to get one for just Carson and he loved it.
Carson in his room ready to get the day started.

Uncle Matt and Auntie Shasta got Carson a band set and here is Carson trying to play the harmonica lol. It was pretty funny

Here is the phone that my parents gave Carson. He was putting the phone up to his ear and laughing

Justin was showing him his moves with the instruments

After my mom and dad we headed to Grandma and Grandpa Fagering's to open the remaining presents. My favorite here was his football toy chest, now we have a place to put HALF his toys.

As you can tell Carson hated being put inside the football

I love this picture

Carson got the live Elmo and he tries to mimic it

Auntie Jen got Carson a Tee Pee and I wanted to play too

PEEK CARSON

TAADAAA.... Here is the full view of the TEE PEE

Christmas Eve With The Fagerings....

Christmas Eve was spent with the Fagering family, we had so much fun. This year it was at Jay and Erika's house.
It was awesome to see Carson run around with all his little cousins. The Fagerings know how to party let me tell you :)

Carson got a present from Santa, it was a box of crayons lol.
Playing with little Jake, they were so cute

Snow Snow Snow.....

Wow, when the news said it was going to snow who knew it would to the extend that it did!!! It was awesome, We haven't seen this much in years. I hate driving, but LOVE playing in it. After being stuck in the house for about a day in a half we made our way over to grandma's house. Jen came home for Christmas and we were excited to see her. It was an quite the journey, but it was worth it.

Carson loved the snow, all he wanted was to get down and walk, it was pretty funny because the whole time all he wanted to do was go down the hill. YIKES!!! I took so many pictures that it was hard to choose which ones to post.

It was such a fun day... here is Justin going down the hill, Sue and Ken have the best hill ever....

Auntie Jen couldn't get enough of Carson!! :)

He is so cute!

Carson had a long day, it was so cute how he fell asleep, he loved the snow and so did we!!!!!!!

Dear Santa.....

So.. this was interesting...This was our second attempt for Carson to see Santa. Our first attempt was on a Saturday. The lines were out of control, we were probably in a line that would have taken us 2 hours to get to the front. As we were waiting Carson was getting a little impatient, so we would take turns holding him and letting him walk around.

All of a sudden I seen Justin's face and it looked like he had spit up. Come to find out Carson had peed all down the side of Justin's shirt, pant and was dripping on his shoes!. I sat there in shock all I could do was laugh. So that was that, we ended up going home and we decided that maybe a week day would be better.

Grandma Sue and I took him that Monday. We had just gotten back from going to Seattle for his photo shoot and filling out paper work. When we got to the mall, there was NO people so we were very happy. When it was our turn to walk up to Santa, Carson seemed OK. The tables turned as soon as we put him on Santa's lap. He was pleading for help like we were leaving him.

I can't remember how many pictures they took but it was a few they even tried sitting Carson by himself in the chair and Santa standing behind him. No go!!!!

This was the best one out of all of them, and WE love it. Very classic, something to look back on and laugh.

ENJOY!!!

THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO VOTED....

Baby Carson Placed 2nd Place in the baby battle contest.. CAN YOU BELIEVE IT????

Carson was full of excitement as you can tell... He couldn't believe it just like the rest of us. lol

After waiting about 45 minutes after they were suppose to announce the winners, Grandma Sue and I were going crazy. The suspense was nuts and the worse part is I had no one to talk to in person. Carson was taking his 3:30 nap and Justin was not home yet from work. All I did was pace, pace, and refresh the page about 100 times.

Finally the winners were announced.... I WAS SHOCKED.... I didn't know what to do with myself. I was thinking.... "Do I scream?" "No wait, Do I get a pillow and scream into that?" "Do I or should I wake Carson in all the excitement?? " What I really wanted to do was jump off our back balcony.. hahaha

I was thinking does that really say 2ND place above his picture. Out of all the 900+ babies, Do we really know that many people to vote??

Justin and I want to say THANK YOU for everyone taking the time to vote for Carson, not only that but spreading the word for strangers to vote. We are so overwhelmed with excitement. We still don't feel this is real, whether it was third or first, we did not care. It was the fact that out of all those babies Carson made it and won!!!!!

Now Carson has to go do a photo shoot with the rest of the winners.... woohoo

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU .............
