New Adventures


At only 10, well almost 11 months old now, Boston has been introduced to many of the fun places Utah has to offer for kids.  I think since he was cooped up for so long, Grandma Morris and I felt like he needed to experience everything in like....a Week!

Since June, Boston has taken a fieldtrip to Discovery Gateway, the children's museum downtown Salt Lake.  He's been to Liberty Park, also downtown where there are old-fashioned amusement rides, a water way, an aviary, and more.  He went swimming at the South Jordan Aquatic Center.  He fed the geese and took a hay ride (which he slept through) at Wheeler Farm, a historic place in Murray.  And just a couple of weeks ago he went to the Aquarium (where he enjoyed watching the kids run around all wild and crazy, more so than the sealife).

Hopefully we aren't overloading his senses!

Grandma would walk Boston but every 2-3 steps he would plop down. He wanted to sit!






South Jordan Aquatic Center July 17, 2010
Not too sure of the pool, so much going on around me!



Looking at the water dripping from a huge pipe!

Coolest buckets in town!


2nd Trip to South Jordan Aquatic Center, July 24, 2010
This time with Rickee, Natalie and Jessica











Wheeler Farm July 29, 2010








As soon as Boston discovered the water, the rest of farm was irrelevant.












Grandma was so excited to take Boston on a hayride...
Unfortunately, by the time we got to it...the heat had gotten the best of him!

Firsts to remember...

1st Tooth: May 19, 2010

(Sorry Boss, I didn't get a picture of your first tooth.)
This picture shows you with two teeth just 6 days later May 25,2010.



1st Haircut: May 23, 2010
I had hair behind my ears that was longer than the rest. Mom took care of that!
(sorry no picture, but i did keep the hair)

1st Shiner: May 25, 2010
I fell forward onto a toy. It gave me a good black/blue right eye.


1st Crawl: June 18, 2010
(I took my first official crawl on this day.  Dad was gone scouting for deer, but within a couple of days I did it so ALL could see).


1st Meal in Highchair: July 6, 2010



1st Bath out of the Sink: July 10, 2010
I love my Rubber Duckie tub.  It quacks when you squeeze the beak!  Mom was afraid to bathe me in the garden tub, so this is the first step out of the sink.



1st Time Standing: July 2010 ?
Don't know the exact date, but sometime in July you started standing up to things.  This picture was taken July 15, 2010.


Another picture of you standing up.  July 26, 2010.

1st step towards walking: August 8, 2010
You were standing up to the couch and Grandma Morris held her hands out and said "Come here Boston". You let go of the couch and took your first step towards walking before falling into her arms!
