Christmas Traditions

We went to Colorado for our annual Christmas time fun!  We were able to stay for a week and enjoyed the snow.  The boys were out playing almost every day, building snow forts with Wayne.  While there we also celebrated my Birthday by doing whatever I wanted that day.  I chose to go to the Humane Society to talk to all the animals and go to the movies... We saw SING and it was great!!  We have watched it about 6 more times since getting home!  Such great music and the best part is that there are not really any scary things in it like most kids movies these days.  We also took a day to take the boys to Telluride.  We have been before but Cody didn't really remember.  We played in the snow with Rooger then went to have lunch at a little Chinese restaurant that had great food!!  Wayne was even able to get Cody to try soup!  Afterwards we took the boys on the Gondola over to the Mountain Village.  We had only gone to the top of the mountain before so it was a surprise to all of us that there was such a cute little village on the other side.  We loved it!!  We walked around the shops, stopped by the ice skating ring and had some Starbucks before heading back over the mountain. 
At the end of the week we didn't want to leave but knew we'd be back when things warmed up again.  :)

Rooger loved the snow too!

It's like a snow jacuzzi! 

Can't believe I stayed out so long.

At the end of our 2.5 hr hike the neighbors came out and gave the boys snow shoes. 

Visiting the animals. The boys really wanted to take this kitten home.

.......Shake N Bake........

These might be difficult to understand but we wanted to share them anyway, they kinda look like little aliens right now. LOL Baby B (aka: Bake) was being very difficult today and did not want to be photographed much. Baby A (aka: Shake) was really liking the photos and we were able to see a lot more of him or her. Everything is looking good with me and the babies! We go back for another ultrasound in 3-4 weeks. :) Baby B (aka: Bake) squishing its head and trying to hide. Baby A (aka: Shake) waving to us

Quick trip

Image
So the dogs and I made a quick trip up to Durango this past weekend to just get out of the heat and hang out at the house. Although I ended up working on the house with my mom and John it was still a very nice weekend. On Friday (after about 4 hours sleep) mom and I delivered an area rug for a client and had lunch & wandered around town with Mickie, it was a very nice day! On Saturday we ended up power washing the whole deck and going to dinner and having margarita's in Bayfield. Sunday morning we got up and after realizing that the rain might just stay away for a little while mom and I re-stained/sealed the deck While we were doing all of this John was laying stone on the three pillars in the front of the house, they turned out awesome! We then went into town and had some ice cream and watched all the bikers. It was hard to come home on Monday, the weather was soooo nice and cool, however Wayne was patiently awaiting for my return and had steaks on! Yummmm!!! Here are a...

Ultrasound Photo Updates

Image
Ok, I turned the photos sideways so that it kinda looks like they are sitting up. (Seems to be the only way my mom can tell so I thought it might help others as well) We are just shy of 24 weeks.... Only about 12 weeks left to go WooHoo!! Wow some days it just feels like it is flying by!!! Guess I better get crackin on the room! We went for a check up today and I was telling the doc that I thought baby B was just kickin up a storm, but she informed me that it could actually be either one because both of their feet are right next to each other. Baby B is definitely the one cutting off my air supply though... sitting right under my breast bone it feels like!! Baby A is sitting farther down so my bladder gets hit with that one. LOL The first photo is Baby A (Shake) I thought it was a nice profile, we had another one of a wave (always seems to be doing that!) but it was a little blurry. Second photo is Baby B (Bake) sucking a thumb!
