New digs



Well, we are back from Idaho and in our new townhouse! It's AWESOME. So much room, I hardly know what to do with it! Zach keeps commenting about how far away from the TV the couch is, and I keep telling him that it's not moving any closer! We painted the living room - thanks to Auty and Loren for the recommendation on the paint color! We love it. I'm going to paint the boys room and our room too, but they will be a little bit. I'm still trying to get the boys back on schedule after all our vacationing!
We had so much fun in Idaho with Zach's family. We took Keegan to the fire station while Bwana was working and we got the full tour! It was really awesome. Keegan even got to see the fire pole and watch the firemen wash the truck and ambulances! Todd and Zach got a great kick out of me putting on Todd's gear. For those of you who aren't familiar with fire trucks, their air packs basically make up the back of their seats. The backrest of the seat has some prongs that hold the oxygen tank in place, so when they jump in the truck, they just stick their arms through the pack straps, cinch it up, and they are ready to go. Anyway, I sat in Todd's seat (being the captain, he gets the front seat! awesome, huh?) and put my arms through the straps, etc etc. Todd tells me "Just lean forward and the tank will pop right out." Yeah right. May I take this moment to remind you all that I did just have a baby 3 months ago, along with major abdominal surgery..... So I lean forward and tried to put a little oomph into it. Todd and Zach bust out laughing as I'm flung back into the seat. Honestly, I think it was glued in. Well, eventually I got it out, but I don't think I've ever seen Todd laugh so hard. Oh well, anything to give him a good laugh, I guess!! It was fun though, Autumn helped me make some baby announcements for Kayden, Keegan loved spending time with Sugar Mama, Bwana, and all his aunts and uncles. We can't wait to get back at Christmas time!
In other news, Kayden weighs 14 lbs!!! WOO-HOO! Shocking isn't it?! I can hardly believe it. He weighs as much as Keegan did at like 6 or 7 months! I'm waiting for it to quit and for him to turn skinny overnight.... We shall see I guess.
Well, I know I don't have hardly any pics with this one, but I promise to get some up soon!!
