quick update

The famous Retro Rocket. It is a fun toy!
Coranelle and Charlie are fighting for the rocket.
Chaos before bedtime. The girls are rockin' out on the piano!
Adelaide eating a caterpillar!
Amy getting her baby fix at dinner, since her baby was with a sitter!
Feeding Adelaide her bottle Friday night. Adelaide came along instead of being left with a babysitter. After an hour of being away from my own baby, I was missing her and excited to hold another baby. Sad, huh?
Here's Coranelle in our snow storm! We got over a foot last Tuesday. And, I have lots more pictures of the past week, but for some unknown reason, I am having trouble loading them. I'll post them soon!


I just realized I haven't written in a while. I guess that's because we have been busy with all sorts of fun activities and people!
This past week was Heidi's spring break, so Coranelle and I got to see her Tues, Thurs, Fri, and Saturday! It was fun to take walks with her and have someone else to entertain and enjoy Coranelle. Heido helped me plant the first part of my garden, so I am excited to see things start to grow!
Friday, I did not have to watch Mia because it was her parent's spring break. So, I got to go to swim class again, and then spend the day with my mom and Heido. All four of us went out to lunch in Boulder and got to browse the Title 9 clearance sale. Anyone who knows me, knows how much I love that store, but can never afford it unless I am using gift cards from my dad. So, I got some new pants, shorts and shoes, for a great deal. Coranelle was really good all weekend, despite having a cold. She was just happy and ready to play! We left her with Bruce and Heidi Friday night to go into Boulder to celebrate Amy's birthday. She has gotten so much better at staying with her grandparents. She didn't even cry when we left! She just played with them until she wore herself out, and then they put her to bed! We got to enjoy dinner on a heated rooftop and drinks with friends. Saturday night we had Amy, Vann, Charlie, Ken, Jenny and Adelaide over for a greek dinner to celebrate Amy's birthday. We had a wonderful time. The babies all went to sleep around 8 in their pack n' plays and we stayed up until midnight playing games and laughing. It was really fun and I am just so happy to have couple friends on the same page in life as we are. Our girls are going to have great fun growing up together.
Yesterday, Coranelle was the happiest I have ever seen her. She was just all smiles and giggles all day. She was happy to play, ride in the backpack during walks, she took long naps and ate well. It was fun to see a glimpse of her personality as she grows up. I really enjoyed spending the day with her and Ryan yesterday.
On a side note, we watched Food Inc. last night. If you have not seen it, I highly recommend that you request it on your next Netflix order or rent it. It was very eye opening and I think we will be changing the way we eat from here on out!
I also got to talk to my dad last night, who is home in NM after a LONG, miserable winter in Florida undergoing radiation. He is happy to be home! It was great to hear Kyle playing in the yard in front of him. I know he must be so happy to be back with his wife and toddler again!
Stefan and Rachael moved into their new place in Broomfield this weekend. We hope that having them closer will mean that we can see them even more!
Alright, that's all for now. Coranelle took a 30 minute nap and is rearing to go, so I think we'll head out to Whole Foods and see what we can find in the way of grass fed beef or cage free chicken. Watch Food Inc. and you'll know why!
