For those of you who have not heard yet, Darren and I have made the decision to move to TEXAS!!!!! This is something that we have been talking about for a long time and finally decided that it is the best time to do it. We put our house on the market in April thinking that it would take a while to sell because of this economy and ooops, it sold in only 40 days! So, we have moved into our 5th wheel! We are living in a campground just outside of Falcon, Colorado. We have decided that we wanted to spend the rest of the summer here in Colorado to get in some camping and riding! And....we're not crazy enough to move to Texas in the middle of the summer! Maybe crazy enough to live in a 5th wheel for 3 months with a very busy 17 month old...but not crazy enough to move to Texas in the middle of summer :) So, our first week here at Falcon Meadows Campground has gone pretty well. We are still trying to get settled in and organize things. I have to say that this move was pretty difficult. It was so hard to decide what to put into the camper, what to put in short term storage, and what to put in long term storage. I'm sure that we will find out soon that we put something in long term storage that we REALLY need! I am also learning what I can live without. As you can see from the following pictures.....there is A LOT that I think that I can't live without! Thank goodness for a camper with LOTS of storage. Now, lets hope that I didn't overload it so much that we can't pull it :) On the plus side...when we go camping, I won't have to pack a thing! We'll just move our house to the forest :) HAHA! It's amazing how many people do this camp living thing permanently. Some of our neighbors here at the campground have been here for 7 years!!!! I don't think that we will stay here that long :) Our plans are to move to Granbury, Texas after Labor Day in September. At this moment in time, we're not sure where we are going to live when we get there. We will probably do the camper living for a while longer....if we have survived til then. :)
On to a different subject! August! He is growing up TOOOO fast! He is now 17 months old and going through what has to be his terrible 2's! But, we love him anyways! :) The most amazing change that we have seen in him this past month is how much he is talking now. I really need to write down all the words that he can say really well. He is getting a pretty extensive vocabulary. Some of his favorite words right now are plane, bunny, down, done, two, blue, bath, shoe, mommy, daddy, baby, bottle, water, and of course the dreaded.....NO! He is very independent now and has to do everything himself! He is starting to cut his 13th tooth! He loves to make people laugh and is an absolute goof ball!
This is the mess that we had after we moved out of our house into our camper. Still trying to get that cleaned up and put away!
More mess
And more mess. This is why I can't find anything right now. I know its somewhere....just don't know where :)
Note to self: Don't leave box of wipes out so that a certain 17 month old gets a hold of them. I have to say that he did pick them all up and put them back :)
This moving stuff is pretty cool! August got a ride on the couch
Sitting on something that I shouldn't be sitting on!
Cool Dude!

We went camping for the first time this summer and August had a blast. It was super dirty and dusty. I finally gave up on trying to keep him clean. August fell a lot and would just dust him self off and keep going. Problem was that most of the time he would dust his hands off on his face!
Uh-oh! Fell again
I found this neat little stump and tried so hard to get August's picture on it. He refused to look at me and smile at the same time. He wanted off that stump so bad! Here are the best that I got!
