We are Here

I've been out of the blogsphere for so long, but after our big move it's taken me longer than i thought it would to get back into the routine of things. In fact, i'm not there yet and not sure i ever will be again. oh well. The trip went well and we are all adjusting. We are so thankful for all the help from my parents and Ryan's parents and the dear friends who helped us pack up. So much has happened since we've been here, but for today just wanted to let you know that we are indeed here and doing well! Here's some recent pictures of the kids. They are growing like weeds!


Rory with "short hair like Lydia"(her best friend in El Paso)



I made Ethan a cute little stack of pancakes for breakfast one morning. However, he didn't really appreciate my attempt at cuteness. Instead he picked up the entire stack and took a really big bite.My sweet desert boy trying to come to terms with the grass. When we first drove into Colorado we stopped at a rest stop and let the kids run around barefoot in the nice soft deep green grass (something we didn't have in El Paso, at least not at our house). So we put Silas down in the grass and he immediately started sobbing and would not stop until we picked him up. He is just now (2 months later) starting to be okay with being put down in the grass. Poor boy!


Look at this stinker. He's so cute. His first two teeth popped through at 4 1/2 months. He rolls and pivots and tries to get up on hands and knees ( so far without much success).
