Few quick pics
No update on the move quite yet…house prep is taking us much longer than expected. Chuck is on his way to Seattle soon though - so hopefully a job is on the horizon.
We just got back from Memorial Weekend up north - first trip with 2 kids and I can’t really say it was relaxing, but still fun. Colin insisted on listening to Frank Sinatra much of the way up and back and while we were up there. Today he sang a full version of “fly me to the Moon” for everyone at the park, while he was swinging. It was pretty funny.
Colin has become quite the little computer whiz now. He is playing games and using the mouse all by himself and everything. He can play this Sesame Street game where you pick the objects that start with the letter for hours on end. He is still obsessed with Tivo. When he was about 18 months he pulled off the sticker and then was super upset that “Tivo broke” - so now he uses Tivo as a verb when something is broken. For example we went to return bottles at the grocery store and the machines were broken (man was he upset), as we were leaving he said “We can’t use them? They are tivo’d?” The other day he also told me that his bunny has “Tivo ears” - because it looks like the antenna (rabbit ears) on the Tivo logo. He doesn’t even watch that much TV…but he has always been a sucker for corporate logos.
Not to leave Holden out…poor little sweet guy…he is doing well. Sleeping in his crib and he has started to roll on his sides. He talks up a storm - so I have no doubt he will be able to hold his own with Colin. He is also a drooling machine - thought he might be getting teeth - but it is a bit early. Colin likes to give me parenting advice and often tells me, in the midst of Holden screaming, that “Holden is crying mommy”
Colin also said that the bunny was angry, apparently because it has Tivo ears. Who could blame it?
Hey, Jessica, it’s your long lost coworker from Lariat. Jen just turned me on to your site.
I liked the note about your son listening to Frank Sinatra and singing “Fly Me to the Moon”. My 3-year-old daughter Audrey is currently in love with Tom Jones. Check this out:

Theo started getting teeth at about 3 months. So maybe that IS what all the drooling is about.
