Catching Up

In addition to having a new addition, we moved when Colton was a week old. Papa Hansen came to help us and was a GREAT help. He and Mike moved everything throughout the day while my mom and I organized and put things away. Things went much better than I had imagined and we are starting to feel settled in our new place. I have even managed to locate more than just the dinner plates and toilet paper. With the help of both of our mothers, we have made the apartment our home.

Lydia loves having a playground right outside our door. There are also several neighbor friends just a few doors down that she can play with. It has been great to have people from our ward close by. They have been nice enough to watch Lydia so I can get some sleep.



When Mike's mom left yesterday, she took Lydia with her back to Ohio. We are supposed to pick her up over Labor Day Weekend. She was so excited to go see "Papa" Of course the horses, four wheelers and tractors add to the appeal as well. Here is a picture of her with her blanket and all she felt she needed to take with her. A back pack full of toys, a doodle pad, and a jacket. I am going to miss my little sunshine, but I am also excited to enjoy some quiet time this next week.
