Family Day

On Saturday we went and had a little family day, it was so much fun. just the 3 of us :)

 1st we went to Black Canyon National Park.. it was national parks day here in CO, so entrance was free! cant beat that. In Cassidys 26 years in Montrose, he never has been to the park and I havent either. It was sooo pretty! we loved it!

 Cassidy and Bentley on the edge.. I was nervous

 Driving around to the different look out points Bentley got to ride shot gun. I think she knew she was breaking the law..

 Cant see this pic too well, but Bentleys smile is just priceless! our little cheeseball!!

 We finished our day with fried chicken in the park. and a feeding the ducks day old bread...

We will most def be having more days like this one, just the 3 of us :)

September

Well another month has gone by, fall is in full swing here in Colo, we LOVE it!

 Grandpa Heidorn came to visit a few weeks ago! Bentley had lots of fun playing with him!

 Here is diesel and Bentley passed out. HAHA we were cracking up how dees is sleeping. who does that?

 Bentley is ready for the cold winter with her warm hat

Big girl is now 10 months.. She took her 1st 3 steps last week and did a major faceplant. I think shes a little nervous to try again.. shes only taking 1-2 steps at a time then sitting down and trying again. She will be up and grooving in no time. Shes a singer/dancer. Put on Barney and she moves! We are trying to get B to eat more big people food.. her favorites are fries, mashed potatoes, pb sandwiches, animal crackers and puffs. Her favorite thing to do is unload ALL of her toys and make a huge mess. She has 3 new teeth on top, still just 2 on bottom. She hasnt grown too much this last month, only put on 2 lbs.. bentley is such a diva in training, you cannot take anything away from her, she freaks out. shes still our little screamer and we love her soo much!!

August

Last weekend we up to Holy Cross to go 4wheelin. It was about a 3 hour drive there and then a 6 hour trail and then a 3 hour drive home! It was a long day, but lots of fun!

 Cassidy and I had to go to a 3 day business conf. in denver last week.. we made the most of it and went to a rockies game one night! We had cheap bleecher seats but LOVED them!! this is my new fave spot to sit, home run alley! there were 7 homeruns hit that night, SOOO much fun!

Our bentley is 9 months now.. where did the time go! shes such a handful but we love her to death and back. shes a little weed, 2 ft 6in and 20 pounds! shes in a big girl car seat, likes to walk like a big girl which she will be doing very soon on her own, has 4 teeth, 2 on bottom, 2 on top, hates to give hugs, likes to turn off the tv, loves to chew on cords, loves her dog, loves to play in the dogs food/water, LOVEs bath time, loves to eat ice, is a trouble maker, has called 911 twice, cant sit through church, loves her friends and is a social butterfly, loves looking at her self in the mirror, favorite toy is the computer key board, hates naps and sleeping, shakes her head no when she doesnt want something or doesnt agree with you, says mamma and dadda, babba and nananana (her words do not go with people, its just what she says) she sings the hymns at church; it is the CUTEST thing on earth, when we start singing she sings too, she wont drink out of a sippy she just loves her baba too much, loves to brush her teeth and dance in the car! we love our girl!!

I LOVE having a girl!!! bentley looked like such a princess on Sunday for church!!

CO & CA

2 weekends ago we went to Cassidys "Jester" side family reunion up at Ragged Mountain, which is our stakes girls camp. We had sooo much fun and it was so pretty there! Bentley had the perfect outfit for seeing her relatives!

 So fascinated by daddys spinning ring!

 This kid is standing up now.. she just did it on her own the other day.. i think she will be an early walker! She is so determined!

 Heres the enterance to R.M. We had so much fun ridin dirt bikes and eating smores!

 Last week we took a quick trip to CA! Bentley did awesome on the plane.. everyone kept saying what a well mannered baby she was. WHAT? my child well mannered?! everyone loved her, who wouldnt!

 Bentley got to meet her cute Neel cousins! she LOVED them!

 We went to the Monteray Bay Aquarium for my birthday with all the kids, it was so fun!

 My little poser! all you have to do is put a camera in front of Bentley and she cheeses it up!

 Cousin dog pile!

 Bentley got to wear her swimsuit from uncle miles and auntie chelsey! she looked TOOO cute!!!!

Our little diva is 8 months now! Shes crawling around like crazy. Standing up on anything that offers support, i.e. the tv, the couch, the table, Diesel, the wall. She is on the move! Shes still our little screamer and loves her tv. she loves to jump and be walked around. she loves her baby puff treats and cherrios. she is such a camera poser like i said before, she LOVES the spotlight and has to be the center of attention. we love u bentley!! stop growing up so fast!!!
