A Day in the Park

Today was the most gorgeous day in Denver, so we had to get out and enjoy the beautiful fall weather. Greta loved watching the leaves fall, and even tasted a few. Here are some of our favorite pics:






Six Months Old!


Its been another busy month for Greta. Nonny, Boompa, Aunt Debbie, Uncle Adam, and cousins Lincoln and Kason came to visit. 
Cheering for the Wildcats

We thought it would be a good time to try her first solid food - GREEN BEANS! Couldn't tell if she liked them or not, but she took them down like a champ! She also tried carrots, squash, sweet potatoes, and zucchini this month.
Yummy Green Beans
Uncle Adam and I ran a half marathon that weekend. it was tough, but we both did great!
Greta seems unimpressed
The next couple of weeks, Greta hit some milestones. She learned to sit up, and she popped out her first two teeth. 
Showing off her new talents - sitting and drooling (check out her two bottom teeth)
She also hung out with her friends

Trip to Breck



It is definitely feeling like fall around here. Last weekend we went up to Breckenridge to see Uncle Pepper, Aunt Willow, and cousins Benna and BoBo (thats right, they all have nicknames already). But first, cousin Carm and Carl and second cousin Cora stopped by on their way to the airport to meet Greta. I can't wait for the day when they are in ski lessons together! 

What a difference 5 months can make

Cousins and their babies
We had a relaxing and fun time up at the cabin, and had a little time Saturday in town to take some pics with the changing leaves. 

Family portrait. We got a few others that may end up being our christmas card

The wind was chilly, so Greta sported her cute owl hat
I don't want to leave!!
