Trucks, Tractors and Trains

Great Grandma came to visit.

Hello from Alamogordo! I know it has been awhile since we've posted a blog, but life has been busy! We moved in early Feb. and then Dathan and I had to make a trip to CO for a couple of weeks. While in CO Dathan had surgery on his tear ducts, which unfortunately it looks like it only helped one eye and we will return for another procedure soon. We are settled into our new home and slowly meeting new people. I have enjoyed going to a local MOPS group and meeting other women. Chad finds his job challenging, but enjoys it so far.



Dathan is 17 months old and doing great! It has been an adjustment for me to be a "stay at home mom", but I'm learning and finding more and more joy in it. Dathan keeps me busy between playing outside, reading books, playing in any water he can find, climbing, and just being busy in general. He repeats almost everything we say (SCARY!!!) and surprises us with new words all the time. He loves to talk about and point out trucks, tractors and trains whenever he has the chance. He is beginning to put two words together, but still has his own language for the other million words a day that he says.
