Barrett has been doing great and will be 3 months old in just a few days. It is hard to believe how fast time has flown by. At his last check up he weighed 12.8 lbs and 20.75 inches. He is staring to smile and coo which is a ton of fun. He loves to lay on the couch and watch the ceiling fans.  He also loves his baths and makes sure he gets as much water out of the tub as possible.

**Stayed tuned in for pictures from our busy summer, Barrett is going to become a great traveler. We have auctions in Colorado, Tennessee, South Dakota, Minnesota, Iowa and Illinois. We also will be taking a trip to Mexico and back to Colorado for a wedding. **
