Kourtney's First Picture Studio Experience

After taking hundreds and hundreds of pictures with our own camera, we decided to go to a picture studio and have some taken there. After arriving to Kiddie Kandids and getting Kourtney ready, they took her in.
They did so well with her and took some great pictures. Here are a few pictures from that day.





We caught Kollin playing with the toys on the wall...so easily entertained!

Her first play gym experience

First off...forgive me, some of these pictures aren't so great.
We were in Utah last weekend, and after doing some apartment shopping with Grandma Sue, we stopped at Del Taco. Kollin wanted to see how Kourtney would like the play gym, so they wandered in.
She loved watching 2 other girls play in it, so Daddy thought he'd give it a try and take her through. She liked climbing the steps and looking out the plastic window, but when they got as far as the confined tubes and the dark slide, she didn't like it anymore. But she was SUCH a trooper, and of course, Daddy had fun with his little girl! :)

A girl and her Daddy

Kourtney LOVES her Daddy. In the last couple days, she has cried when he says goodbye, puts her down and leaves for work. I think it is SO great how much she loves him. Of course who wouldn't? He plays "hide n go seek" with her, "wrestles" with her, and lots of other fun games! Here are a few pictures of "a girl and her Daddy".


So fun with Daddy!


Hugs for Daddy!


Hide N Go Seek with Daddy!

The Many 'Dos of Kourtney

Over the last couple months, Kollin and I have taken some pictures and have collected a range of hair 'dos on those pictures. Here are a few of our favorites! :)


One ponytail...her FIRST ponytail!


Cute barrette


Two ponytails


WACKY morning hair


WACKY....Mohawk?
(We had to try it once)

So...How do you use this?

Using a spoon. Its so simple. Grab it, spoon some food and put it into your mouth. Mmmm, yummy.
Think again. For a 9 month old, its a bit more tricky. We gave Kourtney her first oppotunity to feed herself last week. Peaches to be exact. Needless to say, they were everywhere, in a matter of seconds.
After a while she figured out to put the spoon in the bowl, then put it to her mouth, but she still didn't get any food in her mouth. And then, after loosing the spoon off the side of the high chair, she picked up the bowl and played food finger paint. By the time she was done, she had peaches in her hair, on her face, arms, body and legs. It was SO messy, but SO much fun!
Of course, we all know that we'll be trying it again...but maybe we'll try a different food, eh? Something less messy?

Welcome to Life With Kourtney!

Its about time. We've started an eBlog! This way we can share with our family and friends all of Kourtney's achievments and updates without sending out email after email....after email.
I hope I can keep this up so you can enjoy watching her grow up (almost) as much as we do!
