In July we took a trip to Utah to visit the family. Costen loved seeing everyone and he really loved the music room at Granny's. There wasn't a day that he didnt play on the drums.

Costen loves dogs! In fact, my mom thinks Costen learned to squeal from my aunt's dog. Here are some pics of when Costen crawled into Lucy's cage. He just loved it, until he realized that the dog was on the outside and he was inside all alone.
Costen thinks I am silly for wearing this on my head, so I put it on his.

Costen has learned how to eat with utensils and gets mad when I try to feed him the messy stuff. He is so independent.
Costen has started standing on his own and even dances without holding onto anything.
Costen was so tired that while mommy was doing dishes, he laid on his ball and fell right to sleep. What a sweet little boy he is.
Costen is also a little daredevil who climbs onto anything and everything.
The Jackson's gave Costen a dog that turns into a doggy pillow. He just loves his little dog.
Here he is getting into his wipes and about to pull them out all over the floor. His daddy, who is watching him, is encouraging him. lol
Aunt Mimi and Uncle Gaga brought over a giant bear named Dudley for Costen's birthday. He just loves his Dudley and says good morning to him everyday.
Grandpa and Grandma Kelly sent him his first tractor on wheels. His daddy just loved it! However, Costen was deathly afraid of it. The truck is very loud and moves. When Alan would hit the button, Costen would scream 'bloody murder'.
For Costen Birthday Party, we threw a Gator game party in Gainesville and had everyone over to grill, play and watch the game.
All of the kids had so much fun in playing in the pool.
All the adults enjoyed watching the children have to much fun.
The fountains were a big hit. There was even a time when Costen sat on them. lol
He is his birthday cake. This is publix's version f a gator. lol They made the cake for the wrong weekend and had to rush this order. Either way, it was delicious and a big hit.
Costen had is own little smoosh cake! He did quite get the smoosh part, even though we practiced a few weeks prior. He isn't a big fan of getting his hands dirty. lol
With turning ONE, we were able to turn his carseat to face forward. This was a very exciting milestone in his life. Everytime we turned our heads to look at him he squealed with laughter, wiggled his arms and kicked his legs.
He started taking baths in a big tub. The reason he wasnt is because we only had a shower at our old place. He loves his new bath that fits all of his new toys!
He also loves all of the extra room that comes with the new house.
Costen also learned how to stand on his head. hehe I love when he does this.
