Happy Holidays

So the pictures uploaded backward but that's fine since it's already 2011 and I'm just now posting on the holidays. We had a great time here at Chateau Cowart. Here is Grant wearing a "2011" crown I made for him on NYE. He did not like wearing it and I had to bribe him with a roll-up to get this one pic. Next, is the two of us showing our eyes hanging on Christmas Day. Santa brought him a desk and he seems to enjoy his space coloring and pretending to cook. A few weeks before Christmas we went to meet Santa at Alpine Country Club. Grant loved eating the buffet food and Santa was cool too. Josh made a safari snowman for our back yard. It's been a fun start to the winter season.

July 4

My oh my the summers going by so quick! The 4th of July came and went in a flash. Josh was in the Park City Parade on the Spur float, so Grant, some friends and I watched from the front window of 350. Grant ate a red white & blue strawberry and looked very presidential despite his purple face.

This Christmas was the best yet! Having Grant around makes everything more fun. He was really getting into opening presents and enjoys all of his new toys. In the picture on the right is his Inchworm who measured him today at 29". He is getting bigger each day and is sitting up and grabbing. Gone are the days where he just kick-kicks his legs; he now roles and scoots.

Josh is working super full-time because this is the money making season. So we have wonderful mornings together as a family. Christmas morning was obviously quite special. I hope all my dear family and friends are having happy holidays too!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

Cheers to 4th of July

This 4th of July Josh was in the Park City Parade on the 350 Main float.  Although I really wanted to be on the float, I chilled on Park Avenue at the Everett House and watched the happenings.  It would have been awkward if me and my big belly were parading around with wine on a float that said "Cheers to 125 Years", so I gracefully bowed out. The weather was great and 350 won an award for the float.  It was my favorite of the entire parade!

Father's Day

This Father's Day we BBQd and played croquet with the family at Kim & Randy's.  We had a blast!  My pregnant belly must have been good luck because I won a game!  Below is Grandpa Randy being the family photographer.  He set up a fun croquet course with wizard sticks and the Eiffel tower!

Josh is the best husband in the Universe and if how he's been caring for and pampering me is any indication, he is going to be the greatest Father to our baby boy.  These last few weeks of pregnancy have been exhausting and Josh is always around to help me out.  He quick to help me out of bed and off the couch. . . he does all the heavy lifting.  He even gave me a pedicure which looks better than the salon job.  I'm going to miss being the center of attention once Grant Montgomery Cowart arrives in less than 3 weeks!

Mother Lover

It was an exciting Mother's Day because our family added a mother-to-be to the ranks.  In the past, I've celebrated my wonderful mothers and grandmothers while at the same time celebrating my non-motherness (any reason to party).  However, this year I was able to embrace the my inner mother and show off my growing baby bump.  We BBQ's with Kimmi and Granny and delivered this painting to Merry.  It was great to see all the family.
