Landon goes to college!!


Landon's sporting his new UW sweatshirt from Auntie Jennie! We always thought he would be gifted... but college at age 1?!? Really?!


Landon was quite the hit on campus. I smiled as I heard people say, "he is soooo cute!" It is not a common sight to see such a little dude strolling down the halls!



Check out Landon's new crib! We managed to squeeze it into the dorm room. Who sits at a desk anyway??






The quote of the weekend came from a guy who shouted out the taxi window, "Hey baby! I am talking to your child!!" Too funny.






Gelato was a hit for us all. Landon thought it was just for him... the spoons and bowls were just his size. Freeziac is still #1 tho ;)


After all that fun it was time for bed. How does Aunt jennie climb up here? Don't fall down!

After I taught my online class, I met up with Landon and the girls at the farmers market. It was nice but DMS is bigger ;) My aunt, Martha, and my cousin, Jack, met us and we headed to the favorite local pizza joint. They have the most interesting pizza creations. I bet get they are slammed at 2 am!


Jennie and I split the mac & cheese and the chicken pesto pasta pizzas! Yummy :)

Jack had hamburger with french fries and BBQ sauce on his pizza!




We sure did eat a lot this weekend. Landon is tasting yogurt for the first time for a snack in Jennies room.



That night we went out to dinner for some burgers and shakes. Landon bopped to the music that was blasting in bar area one room over!


We had a great day! Jennie decided to "check in" at some parties since Landon needed to get to bed. He was already up way past his bed time :)



Can you tell that he is exhausted?!




Martha picked us up Sunday morning. Jack was making pancakes for us! Landon was buckled in like a big boy (his car seat was in my car and the drive was VERY short)!

Jack made baby pancakes just Landon's size ;)

It's fall! The leaves are littering the ground :) Landon had a blast playing with the cousins (2nd cousins or whatever their official title would be...)


It was so nice to see everyone on our spur of the moment trip!


Landon's new favorite is biting apples. He carried around that apple all day. It was like a teddy bear to him. He would take a bite, walk around, drop it, pick it up, have another bite...



Maddy and Jennie needed to get some studying done so the rest of us walked to the zoo. It turned out to be a beautiful day!



Look at the cute mittens that Muff found from when her kiddos were young! I need to find a pair like that. I love the string that keeps them on!


Lions, Tigers and Bears... oh my! This was Landon's first time at the zoo. What a nice zoo it was! I can't believe that they are able to keep it free for all! How great is that? They said that it takes over $100 dollars a day to feed one lion. They must do a ton of fundraising!



It was so funny b/c we actually had to teach Jessie how to carry Landon. One foot in front, the other behind and rest him on your hip... it took a few min but then he looked like a natural :) Landon's holding on tight!


We spent a while at the playground. It was nice to have helpers :)


Up and down, up and down...



WEEEEEEEE!!!!


Jessie helped Landon pick out an animal to ride on the carousel. Every kid has to go on a carousel once and a while!


Jack & I got to ride the train. The conductor truly loved his job and it showed. So fun :)


The train was sooo cute. Love the different animal prints. I want to get a toy train just like this for Landon to play with ;)

Then it was back to the playground for more fun. Jack climbed this rock. I was trying to teach Landon...

Baby steps ;)

Here is Jack at the very top! Its hard to imagine that could be Landon some day...



I had to get a pic of this!

Thanks for taking us to the zoo!


Don't you just love attic's!?! Muff had the highchair that all 3 of her kids used! We should have thought about this earlier ;)

Landon is still carrying around his apple :)
Before we left town, we had to see cousin Katie. She didn't get in until 7 so we met her for dinner. Landon was a great trooper. All he wanted to do was go to bed... at least I knew that he would sleep the entire drive back :)

Thanks again! We had so much fun. Hopefully next time Tim will be able to join us :) See you all very soon in FL!!!
