It's official!

We no longer own a home in Denver. The closing went well, and our house is SOLD. Work on the new home site is in full force! Cody is super excited about the backhoe and the dirt piles, and Tyler is not sure what to think, but knows it must be cool if big brother is so excited about it. We are excited to have our new home, hopefully by May!!!

Manny and Monique go to Vegas

We made it!!! Not to the city of lights, but the original Vegas...We unpacked the truck and got our rooms situated, but there is still a lot of work to do. At least for now we can sleep, and there is always good food when Dwayne Craig is around. Cramped quarters now, but hopefully our house will be ready soon! More to come about our new life soon.

Cody's new room, complete with big boy bed and spiderman sheets and blanket...Thanks Meme and Coco!

Mommy, Daddy, Tyler and Fish...Can't wait to have our own room!!!

More Milestones

He's mobile!!! Tyler can officially crawl anywhere he wants to go. Usually this is the entertainment center or to get at cords. He is also fond of Cody's toys. He hasn't found the stairs yet, and thankfully our new house will not have these! Tyler is much happier with this new found mobility, but Cody is not sure he really likes it much.

Tyler has 4 teeth, the two front on top and bottom...I have been unsuccessful in getting a picture, but will keep trying. To add to my insanity, Cody is also cutting his 2 yr molars...it has been a grouchy house lately.


Cody is still bigger!!!

Empty

As I pack my cabinets, drawers and closets into boxes, I am filled with an emptiness. I am sad to leave this house, or perhaps not the house so much as the memories I have built in it...the first house we bought, the house I brought my babies home to. This is the first time in my life that I will not be living in Colorado. The first time I will be far enough away from my parents that I can't just see them whenever I feel like it. I am realizing how many people I really am going to miss, and I am sad.

A new life

I am excited to begin our new adventure in NM. I was beginning to worry that we were going to sell our house before I had a job or insurance for the family, but God is good and has provided me a transfer with UPS. I start on April 1st...and no it is not an April fools joke! We also have an offer on our house it is amazing how everyrhing is coming together. I am excited to start a new chapter, but sad to leave friends and family in Colorado. More frightening to me is the prospect of finding a new doctor...yuck:( Let the fun begin!!!

Milestones!!!

Tyler is 7 months old and has finally cut his first tooth, after much chewing...on everything!

Life is good when you are 2!

Last weekend we had the priviledge of taking Cody to a monster truck show at the Pepsi Center. He was totally captivated and hasn't stopped talking about the monkey monster truck since we left. He is soooo cute!

New for the New Year!

Christmas was good to us all, both boys got more than they could have hoped for. Here are some favorites.


I love children, they keep things fresh. I don't have to make new year's resolutions in order to change my life...it is ever changing! I love how a good night sleep can cure all wrongs and the simple things make the biggest smiles. Tyler is now sitting up...mostly on his own. He can balance for almost a minute as long as there are no major distractions.

Baby it's cold outside

It has been so cold here the last couple of days, and I mean below zero cold, but Cody still wants to play outside. He is cute in the snow, can't wait to take him sledding!

It's the little things...

Tyler learned how to breathe through his mouth and he is so cute breathing in and out really quick, just to show me that he can do it! it really makes me laugh.
