Will's new room and Update

Here are some pictures of Will's new room. I was finally able to take them after his nap yesterday. I love his little room and he enjoys playing in it and reading the books. Joshua and Will both love our new house. The other day Joshua said 'I'm excited not to go to our old house again' I think the moving process was a little much for him and he is glad to be in one location.

I cannot believe Will is 13 months old!!

He started crawling on Mothers Day and it one week he went from not crawling to crawling, pulling him self to kneeling, and being able to sit up from being on his back or belly. He is so mobile and it is cute watching him get to where he wants to go. His physical therapist was thrilled to see him improve so quickly. I still need to get in touch with a physical therapist here in Ft. Collins though, he still slouches pretty badly so we need to work on his back muscles.

Will eats no more baby food. He loves yogurt, mac and cheese, fruit, green beans, really anything we are eating he likes to eat. He just likes food. He likes drinking water and Pedia-sure (I give him half Pedia-sure with half milk). The doctor suggested giving him Pedia-sure to thicken him up. Will likes trying to eat with a fork and can take the food off the fork in his mouth but cannot get food back on it.

Since we moved into our new place from day one 11 days ago he has slept through the night!!! I guess he just cannot share a room with anyone. Before we moved out of our old house we had him sharing a room with us so Joshua could sleep better. I am so glad he sleeps here!!! What a blessing for sure. At our old house he was waking up every 3 to 4 hours and would nurse 2 to 3 times in the night. During the day he would nurse twice. Since he has been sleeping so well here he no longer nurses at night and he dropped a day feeding. The last time I nursed him was two days ago so we will see if we are done. I have a feeling we are and at this moment I am fine with it. Yesterday I was not so we will so what comes of today.

Our new house!!

I finally have pictures of our new house. I took them yesterday. I'll take a picture of Will's room when he wakes up from his nap. We just had a garage sale today and already took our left overs to the thrift store so I'll take a picture of our garage soon.

Moving out of our Laramie house

Day one of moving.

Last Wednesday we took a trip to Ft. Collins to sign the lease, move our huge television and leave one of our cars here. Here are a couple of pictures of that event.


My friend Roza who came down with us to help us get the house ready to move into. Fortunately the place was already cleaned so we didn't need to do any cleaning.

Moving is coming along

All of our closets are completely packed and the kitchen is completely packed. All we have left to pack are some toys of Will's in the living room and little odds and ends that will fill one box per room probably. Today I was able to get the oven, freezer, and light covers clean. Michael helped me clean our patio. Our address had been changed, we got our bills switched over. All we need to do is get some plastic wrap stuff for furniture, get the truck, load it, and leave. We are ready for the move to happen that is for sure.

Tomorrow we will drive down to Ft. Collins to take our T.V and some other odds and ends that don't fit well in boxes. I want to clean the bathrooms, kitchen, vacuum and if needed shampoo the carpets in our new place. Then on Thursday we will load everything in the truck and leave.

I am really glad we aren't moving too faraway from Laramie. I do like the people but I do not like the weather (it snowed here yesterday) and am looking forward to being closer to my sisters in Denver.

Boxes...

I have been very busy boxing up our items this last week and have no where else to put boxes really. Today I plan on getting more boxes and will probably be finished packing, aside from some clothes, toys and a few movies that is. Here are some pictures of our house piled almost to the ceiling with boxes.




All that we need to pack in our closets are our clothes!


Joshua has had fun drawing on the boxes.

Dot Art

While in Texas in January 2009 my cousin had Joshua and her daughter make some art using bingo doters. Joshua thought this was the best idea ever and had a blast. Since then the idea pops in my head that I should get some too but I never did. Well a couple of days ago, while at the dollar store, I found some bingo doters. I was so happy I bought all the colors they had (only 4), that night Joshua had a blast making pictures with these easy to use/mess free paints. Here are pictures of his creations!


My favorite one!








His first one.
