I Love My New House, Guys!

I love going up and down the stairs - I think it's funny to give Mommy a heart attack and try to go down forwards instead of backwards.

I love my new playroom where ALL my toys can be out and I can spread out and play with them everywhere and make a big mess if I want to.....

..... and I love having my friends over once or twice a week for all the playdates Mommy sets up for me!! (I love it when all of Mommy and Daddy's friends come over all the time too). ;)

I love the big open spaces where I can run (and have Daddy (and Mommy) chase me)! I love making BIG messes..... ooops!! I love helping Mommy clean up! I am trying to love my pool, where I can swim outdoors and play with the balls indoors.
I love my new room. I sleep SO good in here!
I love my backyard and being outside - there's SO many fun things to explore and pick up! My head hardly looks up!

I LOVE the train that comes by - although I can't see it from downstairs, I still run to the windows and try anyhow. It excites me very much.
I love all the railings - it's fun to be able to see everything!
I love Mommy's new washer and dryer - it's fun to watch the clothes spin around.
I LOVE living really close to ColdStone Creamery. Ice cream is definitely one of my favorites. =)

I love SO many other things about my new house - but as you can tell, I keep my Mommy and Daddy on their toes so they don't have much time to blog about all the other fun things that I love. =) Maybe someday. =)

Fun Day Outside

It was such a nice morning here in our new little city. So we decided to drag out our bikes, hook up Noah's new bike trailer and take a ride around the neighborhood and up the Santa Fe Trail.


While we were out riding around, the train came rumbling down the tracks, so we had to stop and watch it. Noah was in HEAVEN!! He is absolutely crazy about the "tain." =)


After we got home, we decided to fill up the baby pool and let Noah swim awhile. He was not a fan. Next time we'll fill it with pretty warm water - or just let him swim in the hot tub with us while wearing floaties. ;) He DID like to play with the hose and his toys and splash around outside of it though. Oh well, maybe next time. We tried.






While Noah napped after his big morning, Greg worked on some more of the upgrades around the house, Jen shopped for house things online, and we rested a little bit before N got up.

Later on in the evening, we went out to dinner with Cheryl and Bob and tried a new restaurant here in Monument. We even got to sit "outside" and enjoy the great weather! (As we were leaving the restaurant, Jen ran into an old friend from high school and had fun catching up for a few minutes. Can't believe it's been 11 years!!!!) Then we had C & B over to "play" and have dessert. Noah was being insanely silly and loved all the attention he got from them. =) They really are like a 3rd set of Grandparents to him. ;)

It's been a fabulous day. =)
