HAPPY JANUARY!

Meet our new neighbors- they are all over our complex and right outside our window!

Happy January to all! I thought it might be fun to post some day-to-day photos to show you all what we have been up to. Last week Dan went back to school after having had almost a month off. Back to reality- good to be back on routine with preschool, cleaning, naps, etc., but life is just not as fun without Daddy at home! We forgot how tiring it is for him to juggle working nights and school during the days. He and Corom having been falling asleep at 7:30 every night. (Don't let that early bed time fool yah- Corom still wakes up multiple times in the night- hence me being too tired to blog at night!) It hasn't been snowing for the last few weeks, so we have been trying to get outside to play. We love walking around looking at the snow and the deer that have moved into our complex. Over all, we are just having fun. Spending so much time inside with the winter, Noelle's imagination just runs wild. How fun it is to play! Corom is now on the move and crawling all over the place. I was cooking and I looked down and he was at my feet! We are just crazy about this little guy- he is such a joy and happy-happy! Hope you are all doing well! Enjoy the pics-

Noelle and I had a dance party tonight! Too bad you can't see the one of me!

Look at this happy kid!

What a wonderful day when they start eating finger foods! Just another step
towards freedom for me! (And he loves it too!)

We used Noelle's pink piano to play primary songs for family home evening!
Noelle enjoying family home evening dessert!

My favorite time of the day is bathing the kids together in the morning.
This towel ritual makes them laugh every day!

Corom is now big enough to cruise in the red car! (Sorry-I didn't rotate)

She can now ride her trike! Last summer she was too small! Yeah Noelle!

She wears this outfit everyday! Hey- when you find something you
look good in- you want to wear it-right?

Noelle likes to pretend that the photo albums are lap-tops!

Fun, fun! I wish the kids could play together. Maybe you guys could come for Easter! I'm hoping Julio has a job by then.

I laughed out loud at Noelle in her dress-up outfit! At least, I hope it's her dress-up outfit and she didn't take a page out of Auntie Gina's fashion book. We wanna see dancing Tami pictures!!

I loved looking at all the fun pictures. Gosh, I miss those babies!!! We've got to schedule our next visit so we can have something to look forward to. Love you all. Mom

I can't believe that little boy is growing so fast! And that dress-up picture of Noelle is priceless! I told Dad that it surely will be shown again when she is a teenager- and then she will say, "Why did you let me dress like that?!?" (right, Gina?)
Miss you all and look forward to seeing you next month (inclement weather will be better than dust!)

Those are great pictures! What fun. We are sure glad you guys moved here. I also loved the one of Noelle dressing up and Corom smiling. He is such a happy baby.
