*** i tell the story behind this picture if you keep reading***

CoLeMan Turns 7 Months and a OVERdue Denny Family UPdate

We took our little Coleman Swimming, he was a little scared at first because of all the loud noises but 5 minutes in the water and he turned into our little fish! he loved it, and now when he takes a bath he splashes and kicks like he is in his own pool. (Michael Phelps WATCH OUT) Coleman has also found his voice or atleast how to use it, he is babbling non stop all day long. He also has a new found talent of screaming and grunting. it cracks us up everytime he does it. He is trying to crawl and is getting so close, he gets up on his hands and knees in crawling position but then just rocks back and forth... we think it'll be any day BUT until then he seems content rolling everywhere. if he wants something he rolls to it. if he wants to go somewhere.. you guessed it... he rolls there. its great! He is loving solid foods especially peas. At his 6 month appointment (so a month ago) he weighed 17.11 and was 26 and a half inches tall. we have a growing boy! he is getting so big. he is so curious. me and nate always say when he can walk we are in HUGE trouble, we already have our hands full but i cant even imagine what it will be like when he can walk. YIKES. he is such a happy baby. He still isnt sleeping through the night and some nights i feel like i have a new born all over again... but we sure love you Coleman.

***(this is the story behind the picture up top)*** the other night i laid Coleman down for the night and he wasnt even a bit tired but it was getting late so he needed to go to bed. so i tried to rock him to sleep and he wasnt having it, so i finally just laid him down in his crib and walked out of the room. he was silent for a long time so i thought for sure he had fallen asleep... boy oh boy was i wrong! i went in to check on him and he was reaching for his mobile and rollinh from one end to the other... he looked at me and gave me this look like... What? your the one who put me in here! all i could do was laugh and pick him up. but before that i snuck in and took a picture! it was a priceless moment. one of those i will cherish forever!

Coleman you melt our hearts everyday.. atleast once a day and most days atleast 1000 times :) keep growing strong! love you happy 7 months bubba.

Nate is still the BEST husband and Dad ever! he wins the award of the century! HE IS SO AWESOME and working so hard. he makes Coleman laugh so hard and me smile everyday. He is busy working with Twin D and the young men in our ward. He goes about life serving, smiling and loving life. you never hear him complain and he is always willing to help me whenever he can! he is so amazing.

we finally decided to let maverick back inside (for those of you who dont know who Maverick is..well he is our Dumber than DUMB shi tzu... emphasis on the shi), only because he got a very needed haircut and bath.. so since he is clean we thought we should keep him that way.

Coleman and Maverick are buddies. Coleman just laughs and laughs when maverick is around

so i have the cutest story about Coleman and Maverick,

Today i went to drop Maverick off at the groomers. i loaded Coleman in the car and then put Maverick in the back seat with Coleman. Cole laughed and screamed (his good scream) and giggled the whole way there. well when we walked into the groomers Maverick saw the groomer and started barking and growling and trying to protect Coleman.it was pretty cool. so we got things all figured out at the groomers. so it was time for me and Coleman to leave and maverick to get his long over due haircut. well i walked out of the doors... without maverick right? well Coleman just started crying... and it got even worse when i put him in his carseat and maverick wasnt there to keep him company. they are buds!

i thought that was such a cute story though. SORRY to ramble. :)
