Our Trip to the Oregon Coast

In July we went on a much needed vacation. We headed to Newport, Oregon. Here is a picture of the bridge in Newport. The weather was actually really good the whole time we were there. We had so much fun! More pictures are to come.

Walking Machine

Here are the pictures of Alaina walking. She's walking all the time now. She falls a lot but she still gets up, and that's the important thing. I also discovered that Alaina is finally getting her first tooth!

Alaina's Walking, Oh No!

Alaina starting walking this week. Crawling is still her quickest mode of transportation, but soon she'll be steady on her feet and be walking all the time. Looking at her you have a hard time believing that she's even capable of walking, especially since she's only 10 months old! I'll have pictures soon.

Alaina's First Ponytail!

Alaina's hair is finally long enough that I can put it in a ponytail. I've been trying to be good about putting her hair up everyday. I hope that by starting young she'll let me do her hair when she's older. Maybe.

What The...?

Last month Tony's friend put on a hot wing cookoff. While we were eating Alaina reached over to Grandpa Foster's plate and took a rib bone. She proceded to chew on the bone for quite a while. Her appriciation for good BBQ is starting young.

Our "New" Trampoline

A few months ago Tony's parents FINALLY sold their house in Carey, Idaho and bought a house in Meridian. Their new house came with a trampoline so they let us have their old one. Here Carson is showing it for you all.

A Parent's Joy

Every mother has to take a picture of their messy baby. This occation Alaina was eating carrots, and with every baby she wants to feed herself. Isn't she just so cute?!

Samson "the trained dog"

In April and May of this year Tony and Samson went through a 10 week dog training class. These pictures are from the day of graduation. Samson graduated 3rd in a class of 30. The later picture is of Tony, Samson, and April the woman who teaches the class. I would say the class was a big success. We took Samson on recent trip to the Oregon Coast. We wouldn't have dreamed of doing that before the classes.
