Rolling, Rolling, Rolling

So its been a while.....my apologies, but nothing SUPER exciting has been happening the last couple days. Cole and I spent another week on our own. Dave works for a company that for a good portion of the year takes him out of town during the week from Monday through Thursday. He really likes his job minus the traveling part. Hopefully he'll be working closer to home here shortly so he can be home in the evening.

I recently got a promotion at work, however have not been able to start my new job until a replacement starts, then I'll train that person...then finally start. I'm looking forward to the new challenges. So we'll see how that goes.

Cole started rolling about a month ago. Now, he's rolling around like CRAZY! Before long i'm sure he'll be crawling! Can't believe the time has gone so fast! Here's a video of Cole rolling for everyone to enjoy.

A few firsts

Saturday January 2nd Cole turned 5 months old.......and got his very first haircut. Dave said he did SO well! He looks super handsome! He looks so much more like a little boy now instead of a baby.

I wasn't able to be there for Cole's haircut because I got an invitation to go snowboarding for the first time ever. Lets just say that I probably won't go again.....not worth the pain. I honestly think child birth was easier than snowboarding.....not to mention less painful! I'd rather spend my time at home with my family anyway.

New Year's Resolution

Welcome.

This is my New Year's Resolution, I've decided to start a blog.The blog is to keep everyone up to date on our little family.....Dave, Cole, Copper, Buck & Myself. I hope everyone enjoys it.




Christmas was wonderful. We spent the day at home with my mother and Dave's Dad, along with Dave's sister Krissi and her husband Wade. The weekend following Christmas we got the opportunity to stay at a beach house in Lincoln City with Dave's Mom's family. The weather was unbelievably GORGEOUS!!! Didn't even rain once! We went to the Newport Aquarium, Lincoln City Outlet mall, and even had a huge Seafood Feast complete with crab and gross things with shells. EWWW. Dave was nice enough to grill a steak for me since I don't like seafood. Here are some pictures from our holiday weekend.
