here are a few more pics from the last little while (the whole 3 months felt longer and more crazy than these pictures!!!) now we are moved in and getting settled!!!

here is some pic after we "pre packed and moved all our stuff out to show the house--crazy times!!!! i am going to miss that house (lots of memories and it was a nice house) -- we had fun in it!!!!!---also look how big the kids are!!!

here are some pics from this last 3 months

WOW a lot has happened ......ok Emma started crawling (like 3 months ago) she now thinks she can do every thing cole and laci can do!!! (i feel like she is 1o and a half months going on 10yrs old!!! ) stay little for a while Emma!!! emms can also say the word done and she will use the sign for milk -- sooo cute!!! ;-) Cole and Laci are 2 and a half-- talking up a storm and now know all the alphabet, and the sounds each letter make!!!! (reading here we come) and laci can count to 10 no problem. Cole isn't as interested in just counting... he and laci do recognize letters 1-20 and can name 1-10 if i point to them. crazy!!!!! i and so proud of them and all the kids are so proud of what they can do!!!
Oh yea and anohter thing --- we moved!!!! we sold our house on Tioga in this crazy unpredictable market in record time (9 days) ;-) I was torn the whole time (i loved that house )
but we found a bigger one in rio rancho. and the kids have a whole big living room for a play area!!! it's great!! we have been living out of boxes for a while since we decided to up the Tioga house up on the market!!! We actually had to do a "prepack" 10 big loads to good will, 20 -25 big trips to the dump, and wittling our stuff way down to fit in tote and boxes in the garage. that only left us with one suit case of cloths each and a few toys and beds!!! (it looked amazing!!!) i told jason if we didn't sell it we should leave it all packed up and then go thru the boxes in the garage one by one and just get rid of more stuff!!!! we really emptied the house!!!! then we actually sold it before we had offered on the other one!!! it has been hard moving and triple hard with 3 kids under 2 and half!!! we still are not unpacked but we are getting alittle more settled!!! and the kids love the new house!!!! (we got it a a great price in a great area and once we change the bathrooms alittle and kitchen alittle ---- it will be amazing!!!) ...... any way here are some pic.....
