Visit to Colorado Part 1

 We went to Colorado in the beginning of September for 5 days.  We packed them full with visits with family and friends.  We went to the Dinosaur Museum in Woodland Park with Papa and Nana.  It was a lot smaller and unimpressive than what he thought it would be, but we got some donuts afterwards at the Donut Mill which were DELICIOUS!

Peek-a-boo :)

Why give Caleb "regular" toys when there are hoses around?


The "Box Tunnel" that Papa built for Caleb and his friends, but more for Caleb.  He had SO much fun crawling through it with the flashlight Papa found him.

Apple Picking

For Labor Day, we decided to go apple picking with our good friends, Nate and Ashley.  The weather was mid-high 60s, just perfect!  Here is Caleb rocking his "baby sister" before we left.  I love my kiddos in their striped hoodies!
Here we are walking the orchard, picking some apples.  Caleb LOVED it!
I think he enjoyed eating the apples more than picking, they were all pretty small-his size for holding and chomping.


There were a few animals at Tuken Farms which Caleb enjoyed seeing and saying their names.  He has gone from saying "baaa" for sheep to just "sheep."  It is crazy how over night he started saying the animal names one by one.

Here is our happy, chubby girl!  This hoody is WAY too small for her now, but I wanted one last picture.  The picture below is the first day we brought her home from the hospital!  She has grown SO much!  She is such a happy, smiley, talking baby!

She has been rolling to her side lately, so close to her belly in these pictures.  It only took her a week to start rolling fully to her belly!  Caleb rolled from his back to his belly only once as a baby, he preferred his back to his belly, so thats how he rolled.  We shall see if Anna Kate learns to roll from her belly to her back too.  Right now, she gets so frustrated laying on her belly for too long that I have to try and teach her to roll back-silly girl!

At this age, of 4 months, we learned from the doctor that babies' salivary glands start really kicking in and they find their hands, so that is why she is found drooling and chomping on her hands all the time.  It doesn't mean there are teething, which according to the doctor, she isn't. 

Activities in the Burley Household

Caleb found Jarred's socks and shoes from church that morning and decided to put on "daddy's shoes, daddy's socks."  Caleb is talking SO much more, its so fun, but can also get a little frustrating.  He repeats the same thing over and over again until someone comments on what he is saying.  Oh, let the good times of talking begin!!
Putting the shoes on.
Ta da!!!  So proud of himself!
Cheerleading pose in her sleep-too cute!
A little later I found Anna Kate with her little hands gripped as she slept.
I have been slowly collecting more items for Caleb and I to do.  With the cold weather approaching, I wanted to have some activities for Caleb to do while Anna Kate has nap time.  We do crafts at storytime, so I thought I would get similar items for home.  Here is Caleb with the glue stick and some construction paper I cut up for him.
Here is Caleb painting!
