Crawling in Colorado

Well, we are safely ensconsed in our new apartment in Longmont, Colorado. There are still a few boxes sitting around, but we are getting there. It seems like the last few months are a blur!  Ever since Thanksgiving when Chuck got the job offer at NEON, our lives have focused on packing and moving.  Now we're here and starting to find our new "normal."  Walter was considerate enough not to start crawling until we moved so we only had to baby proof one house :)  Now he's a mobile machine and explores every nook and cranny of our little apartment.  Luckily it's a pretty open layout, so its easy for me to keep an eye on him.  He is "talking" a lot and says Da-da-da-da all the time.  We're working on "Ma-ma." :)  Here are some pictures of our westward migration and Wally being cute :)

This is the family on the morning we left.  Our hair is a little crazy since we spent the night on the floor(I am now officially too old for that).  I was sad to leave Wally's decal in his room that Chuck put up one leaf at a time.  But at least we have a picture of it :)

  Chuck driving...like a boss!  

Bruce, Mary Jane and I also took turns driving the Penske, but Chuck took a few extra ;)

This is the view as we are getting close to the apartment.  

Yes, I can walk outside and see mountains every day!

After two full days and two nights on the road, and some help from an awesome crew of movers, we landed here....

Don't worry, it looks much better now!  Usually....

Earl began exploring right away.

So did Wally!  He starting crawling the first week we were here and pulling up the next :)

Playing with Grandpa Bruce.

Bath time fun!

It was cold for a few days when we first got here, but the average temps have been around 50 since then.  It's awesome!
