Updates

Lets see life have been good...busy but good....business is good...Dylan is oh so wonderful....talking so much....though I can't always understand what he is saying... he is talking all the time......he is such a special little man that I just can't get enough of him.....we are fairly relaxed parents ...so far it seems to be working......but I guess I am waiting for the back lash of bad baby behavior....if it comes I guess we will adjust at that time....for the most part we enjoy his art and attempts at manipulation.....I must say though when we do get serious and put our foot down he usually falls in place with what we are asking ....it is amazing to watch him carve out his place in our family and the world......to watch him grow and become his own unique little person...with likes and dislikes...with little quirks....and his very own concerns....most days we don't sweat the small stuff...perhaps a blessing of being a older parent.....I guess only time will tell.............

So we got our new bedroom set....and we are really enjoying it so much...have bought a couple extra wall sconces that hold candles.....the windows should be done here in the next 2 weeks or so...then we will pick out window coverings....paint and call it good

Last week we attended a benefit auction for one of Collin's good friends.....I am glad that I have been so busy...it allowed us to be the winning bid on a autographed baseball bat from one of the star players of the Rockies...we are super excited to be able to get it for Dylan....we also managed to be the high bid on a 2 night getaway to Estes Park...at what looked like super luxury accommodations.......

Family is here for the weekend...Grandpa Moody got in yesterday....we headed to Fort Collin's today to pick out a new fire place for the family room....get me a much needed purse at the outlet store....pick up some new Lego's for Dylan at Toys R Us and rounded out the day with lunch at 5 guys burgers........yummy good and took Dylan to go play at a Jump House Play Ground...where he jumped, jumped, ran, climbed and jumped some more......for a good hour and a half....little boys and their energy....right now he is still running, jumping, climbing and jumping some more......Dylan seems to have boundless energy........

Tomorrow Aunt Carol and Uncle Herb should be arriving in the late afternoon.....we are planning a Saturday afternoon BBQ for friends and family.....Collin and his Dad are going to the opening college football game for the Wyoming Cowboys on Saturday night....a colleague of mine has pretty good season tickets and offered us her tickets for the game....only 2 so we thought it would be nice if we made it a father and son night....Monday we are thinking about heading up to Estes Park....and I believe I am going to be taking the whole weekend off....I have to work about a 1/2 day tomorrow....otherwise I should have the whole weekend off.....I am really looking forward to the time off with family..... well with that until next time
