Halloween!

It was poopoo's first Halloween and we dressed her as a little lamb. So Tyler and her were the lion and the lamb. On Friday night we went to a Halloween party at our apartment complex. It was a lot of fun. Where we live there are a lot of old retired people so they loved little Ronnee. It was pretty entertaining to see all these old people dressed up. They were having a good time. There was a man dressed as a prostitute in a little short dress and he refused to sit like a lady so he was showing his goods off Tyler said. I was so glad I didn't get that view.
And on Halloween night we just hung out at home and passed out candy and played cards. It was a fun Halloween but I am sure next year will be way more fun because Ronnee will actually know what is going on.

Pics of the little one...

Tyler couldn't catch her smiling with the camera but I caught her with my camera phone. Isn't that smile the cutest!
She makes some funny faces in the bath. Despite the looks she really does enjoy bath time.

And she loves watching the fan. She laid there for forever just smiling away. She is such a happy baby. She turned 6 weeks. Went by so fast but we are loving every minute of it!

Ronnee finally gets to meet more family!

This last weekend we got to have Ivy and Rachel come for a visit. Ronnee finally got to meet an Aunt and a cousin. Now they are definitely the favorite! We had so much fun with them and were sad to see them go. We went shopping, to a pumpkin patch...
Little Ivy, the one who would have enjoyed it the most, slept. So we put a pumpkin in with her to prove that she was there.

We also took a trip up to Tahoe to see the colors again...

Ivy Jane was just as enthused with the fish as I was. It smelled way worse then last week. Lots more dead fish. We also carved some pumpkins... here is Tyler's

Mine hahahahaha
And Rachel's. She did a double sided on. You can tell which 2 have the talent.
And for the most part we played with the girls... Aren't they the cutest witches. Thanks Rachel for the hats!
And the Cutest little lambs. lol
And while we adults carved pumpkins Ivy babysat Ronnee. It was so cute to watch her. She loved the baby.
Thank you for coming and visiting Rachel! It was so much fun! We miss you already!

Tahoe in the Fall!

The beautiful fall colors! We took a drive to Tahoe to see the fall colors and enjoy the wonderful weather. It was so nice to walk around and smell the fresh air. Something that there wasn't to much of in San Jose! Little Ronnee slept the whole time but I am sure enjoyed the ride! We took pictures with her to prove that she was there even though she slept the entire time!




Not only did I enjoy the fresh air but I learned a lot about salmon. Did you know that after they spawn they DIE! It is spawning season so there were a ton of fish just hanging out up there until they died. So there were dead fish everywhere also. So weird! They turn a bright red color also. Pretty cool to see!

1 month ALREADY!!!

I can't believe she is already a month. It has be a fun adventurous month. She is getting so big. Probably well over 9 lbs and growing like a champ. She is a snacker when it comes to eating which isn't the coolest but what can you do. I try to get her to eat for longer and she just wont. She sleeps pretty good but can sense when I am going to put her down. She likes to stay up late and I hate that but at least we nap during the day. Poor Tyler has to wake up early and she normally wakes him up with her loud eating in the night. Never thought a kid could eat so loud! She thinks it is a party or something. She holds her head up and loves staring at lights and bright things. She is starting to smile for us and loves just listening to her daddy's voice. She just stares at him when he gets home from work. She is probably going to be a daddy's girl so I am enjoying the fact that she loves to cuddle with me. We are loving being parents!
It is crazy to think that my baby is a month and has only met our parents. Which is just one of the sad parts of living so far away from everyone! BUT GOOD NEWS that is about to change, not the distance part, but Rachel and Ivy Jane are coming to visit us in a week! We are so excited and can't wait to see them. Ronnee and Ivy are probaby close to the same size. lol

For my Arkansas family...

GO RAZORBACKS!

Our new home!

Here is the scenery around our apartment complex. Isn't it pretty! Before moving here I had know idea what it looked like. I have been here before but didn't really pay attention.
Here is our walking path that goes around this little meadow. We have had some really beautiful days recently and we have been loving our walks! It is how I get my little angel to sleep sometimes. Last night we went on 2 walks because she thought it was party time at 10 pm. She forgets that her mom loves her sleep and likes to be in bed by then.

I will eventually take pictures of our new apartment, it is still not all put together. And will also take a picture of our cool pool. It is heated to 80 year round! Man I can't wait until I can swim. And it is just a beautiful pool area. The people here are so nice. We went to the pool the other day so that Tyler could be a kid again. And everyone was so friendly. There are a lot of older people that live here and a few families but everyone gets along. They have a lot of cool activities for everyone to get to know each other. I can't wait until we can join in. A few people in the office have had the flu so we have been keeping our distance. Can't imagine have a sick little baby quite yet!
So far we are really liking it here and I hope it continues to be that way!

Fun with the In-Laws!

Thank you thank you thank you thank you Ronnie and Terri for helping us pack up and move. I hope I wasn't to much of a brat and I hope you know how grateful I am for your help.
On Friday we took a trip to Tahoe because it was supposed to be cold on the weekend. It was still a little chilly but it was sure beautiful! Made me happier that we moved here. I love the mountains. Snow not so much but I will have to deal with it. Hopefully Ronnee loves it also!
Other then taking them to Tahoe and making them work like Mexicans we did a lot of shopping. Terri loves to shop and this is a whole new shopping area! It was nice to get to know where all the shopping areas are and to get to know our new home! I hope Ronnie and Terri had a good trip. Little Ronnee sure loved the attention and the love!
We went and took pics today and here is one of them. Isn't she the cutest!

2 week and 3 day check up...

Our little chunk gained 14 more ounces! She now weighs 8lbs 14oz. What a little chunky monkey! She is such a good eater. Obviously! We really like her doctor in Reno. I am not sure if Ronnee does because he dropped the stethoscope on her and hit her in the nose. She was so pissed. Good thing Mimi was there with her and I was filling out paperwork. Damn doctor! But other then that everything went well! She is getting so big so fast. Got to love those fat cheeks and big belly!

We made it to Reno...

On Wednesday morning we woke up and went and picked up Mimi and Snakes from the airport so they could help up pack up and move to Reno. Snakes was so excited to meet little Ronnee. It was so cute.


Packing was such a pain in the butt. We thought we were pretty much packed but then we started loading the truck and packing the rest of the house and it got stressful. How did we get so much crap. We almost didn't think that we would fit it all in the truck but thanks to Ronnie's UPS packing skills we made it. And after 10 hours packing we headed on our way. It was 11 pm so we drove and hour and stopped for the night. The next morning we woke and drove like crazy. We stopped in Sacramento to pick up a crib and see Elder Dalton. He goes home in 20 days! Then we drove like hell to get to Reno because we had a doctors appointment for Ronnee and 1:40pm. We literally pulled into town and walked into the doctors office. I walked in nursing little Ronnee so she would be happy for the Doctor. More on the appointment in the next post.
After the doctor we went to the new apartment and started unpacking. That went a lot faster then packing it did. We were all exhausted. Thank you so much Ronnie and Terri. We would have never been able to do it without your help. I was not much help and I still was exhausted from the move. I did a little to much on the first day and suffered for a little bit but luckily recovered fast!
We still are not all the way moved in. Tyler and his mom did a ton but I need to organize things how it works for me, so it could take a little while with the little one. But Tyler it will get done I promise! He would love for it to all be done now because that is his personality but he will be lucky if I get it done in the next 2 weeks.
Thanks again Ronnie and Terri! We owe you big time.
