Settling In




              We missed Daddy!

                Our apartments





              First day of law school
                                                                  







So we are settling in pretty well.  Mikelle talks on her play phone to about everyone we know in Utah, and I'm serious about everyone, I think she is wondering now why we haven't see them for awhile.  We bought her a potty training toilet tonight and I was planning to start tomorrow, but she was so excited, she has already peed on it three times.  She wanted to go on it so much that she finally sat on it once and said " no pee, too hard", we told her that's because she has no pee left right now.  I am hoping that she catches on really fast.  Jonah is also walking now.  He thinks he is the stuff.  He walks mostly but still crawls a little.  He also said his first word, "MAMA" of course, although I don't think he knows it's a word, I think he is just repeating what we say. He is also getting a molar in and has been sleeping horribly, so I hope that ends soon.  Matt finished his first week of law school, he spent 70 hours there this week.  I am already sick of it. I haven't been up to much besides trying to keep the kids busy and keeping Mikelle from watching Caillou all day long, which is her new obsession.
Anyway, we all love it here.  There is a lot to do and the kids have seemed to adjust very well.  There are a lot of really cool parks here and lakes and rivers and the kids love playing in the water.  The pictures are from Redstone Park and the Platte river.  There are also awesome thunder and lightning storms and the kids love thunder now.
