Christmas in Colorado!

We got to spend 2 weeks in Colorado for Christmas this year! I was a little worried at first that it would be stressful with the kids and them working and then having a really full house but it was actually really good. We got to stay in the basement so we had our own space and everyone got along so well. It was such a good Christmas break! I am lucky to have a great Mother and Father in Law! My kids got spoiled rotten and the extra hands that love feeding and bathing the kids was awesome!

Christmas Eve was really fun. We all got some cute Jammies and Brooklyn and Taylon did a little show for us and the little ones joined in. Then they waited for Snakes to get home from work so they could open presents. He had the best singing welcoming committee. They were beyond excited to see him!

Finished out the night with reading a story!  Then off to bed so Santa could come! And somehow I have no pics of Christmas morning. She got a cute little doll that rides on one of the horses she got!  Such a fun Christmas. Here is a cute pic of Mimi feeding all her little eaters!

One day we went to this place called It’s in Colorado Springs. It was a really fun place with rides and a fun play area for the little ones and a pizza buffet! Basically a child’s heaven!

Isn’t he cute!

Another day we went Ice skating! Ronnee enjoyed it but after told me that the ice hurt her feelings! lol

The girls were awesome and it was freezing!

And another day they went up to the mountains to play in the snow. I sent Tyler with the camera and he only got a few pics before he says it quit working. It was working when he got home so who knows!

The kids had so much fun together! We all had such a good time!

We left the dogs with Mimi and Snakes to keep them entertained after having all this excitement! 

Ronnee misses her dogs dearly and everyday reminds us that they belong in her Flamily and we need to get them home!  When she realized they weren’t in the car with us she got the saddest look on her face and big crocodile tears streamed down her face. It was so sad. Cant wait for her to be reunited  with her best friends!

Christmas party!

We had a little Christmas party at our house with most of our friends here in the area!  The kids had a fun time playing and making messes and the adults had fun time eating a drinking! We did a white elephant gift exchange which was really fun! Lots of funny gifts and some really good ones too!  We are so lucky to have such great friends!

We sold the pool table so that room is now just full of toys and the kids love it!   And Cutler thinks he is big and has to play with the big kids!

 

And before we headed to Colorado we let the kids open presents at home so we had less stuff to take with us!

Cant wait for it to be warm so we can take the wagon outside!

Here are some other fun pictures!

Love these 2 little bath babies!

Our life…

So back in July the Albuquerque territory for Cardinal Health opened up and they knew that Tyler was interested, so they let him know about it before they put it out for everyone else to see. Since they love Tyler they were so excited when he told them he wanted it! So in September he started working for that territory! They told us we could take our time moving since they no we need to sell our house and move! So for now Ty goes to Albuquerque every other week until we move!  And until October he was working both territories. Busy busy!

We have been going back and forth trying to decide if we should sale are house or rent it. We tried selling it but we only got 2 VA loan offers and we would have to come up with 8 or 9 thousand dollars just to close on it so we now have decided to try and rent if for now and hope and pray that the market really does pick up and we can sale it then! We are meeting with a Property Management place on Wednesday to see if we can get this process started!  So to say the least we have been stressed!

It really is hard being an adult and I cant wait for us to get moving and get stress over with! We are going to Colorado for a couple weeks for Christmas and when we get back right before New Years we hope to find good renters and start packing and moving!  

Our life in a stressful nutshell!

8 Months for Cutler!

This little boy is so full of life! He crawls and climbs on everything! When he hears any music he dances. He just cant help himself! He loves cars and anything boy. He pushes everything and anything he can around the house.  He loves making messes and is very proud of himself after he gets done!  

He loves food still and eats all the time! He is getting 4 teeth on top and so he chews on everything and is a drool monster!  He is a pretty easy going kid during the day. He just crawls around getting into trouble and occasionally I lose him. He is pretty good at just staying where ever his sister is. Where she goes he goes. I found them the other day in the mud room trying to get to the paint!  Little stinkers! Nights were rough before but now with teething they are longer! He wakes up a ton and could nurse all night if I let him! TEETH POP THRU ALREADY!   He got his first sickness when we were in AZ. He got a double ear infection and a nasal infection. Such a pain but he was a pretty easy sick baby as long as someone held him! lol  He is weighing nearly 18lbs! He is going to catch up to his sis in no time! I am sure cant wait to sit on her and get her back!

Ronnee loves her brother and loves that he follows her everywhere for now! She is normally pretty good to him but the other day I caught her sitting on top of a basket that she put on him. The little brat! But he still thinks she walks on water!

Love these 2 little rugrats!
