This past weekend, we made a trip to Colorado. Mckay's brother, Evan, and his wife recently had a new baby, just a few weeks before Dallin was born. They decided to bless little Porter on Sunday, so we drove out for the blessing and to spend the weekend with Mckay's family. This was Dallin's first road trip! He did pretty well, for the most part. He really likes riding in the car, especially with the radio on, so he slept really well for the first 3 hours of the drive to Denver. After that, he kept getting fussy. I think he realized that he was alone in a car seat and he wanted people to pay attention to him. And the elevation changes as we drove through the mountains were probably bothering his little ears. The 8 hour trip turned into a 10 hour trip, but we did make it there safely.
This is what Dallin did while we drove.
Here he is with Grandpa Easton
And with Grandma Easton.
And here is the man of the hour! Porter!
They're oxygen buddies! Keep in mind that Porter is about 2 weeks older than Dallin. Somebody really likes to eat...
Dallin and I with cousins Porter and Alex.
Aunt Annie and cousin Graham. This picture was actually taken a few weeks ago when they came to visit us in Utah, but this looked like a good place to put it in.
Here he is all dressed up for church and ready for the blessing. He's yawning there, not crying.
Mckay had this Beanie Baby moose in his room, and Dallin liked holding onto it.
We had a lot of fun on this trip. It was good to have a little break after the long winter semester to take off from work and from stress to spend some time with family. Dallin has a lot of people that love him. And he has a really great cousin his age that he gets to grow up with and play with. Porter is so sweet and cute and he's gonna be an awesome little guy as he continues to grow up. We can't wait to get to know him better.

Are those dinosaurs on Dallin's tie!? That is too awesome. I want one just like it.
Man he is a chunk! He has put on quite a bit of weight lately. I saw his double chin last night. You should get a picture of that! I'm glad the trip went well.
No wonder he's getting bigger, all he does is sleep! His eyes were closed in every picture. I second the tie motion.
Thanks again for coming! We enjoyed seeing you guys! Can you e-mail me the pictures of Dallin and Porter together? I want to get them up on our blog as well...thanks!
