New Stuff

So, we have been busy. Sorry for no pictures this time, but I just thought I would let everyone know what's been going on. First, it is official that Matt is not going back to law school, instead he got two new jobs. One part time at the apple store, and one full time that is more of a 'career' at Northwestern Mutual as a financial planner. He starts the apple one this Saturday, and the Northwestern Mutual one officially in August, but he has to take three tests in the month of July to certify, so he didn't really get away from studying.

Next, we are moving to Castle Rock; which is about 2o minutes south of where we are now. It is really close to both of Matt's jobs and we will save almost $300 a month in rent because it is further from Denver city. We move on July 18th. I am excited about the move. Castle Rock is small town with lots of open space and horses and cows and such around; but we live seriously one minute from the Castle Rock Outlets and there is every store and restaurant around so we don't get the small town out in the middle of nowhere feel. Also, our friends Sam and Becky are moving to the same apartments next week because Sam also got a job at Northwestern Mutual so we are excited for them to be around.

And just in other news; Jonah is talking like crazy. He now says THREE words, which are "ma", "da", and "uh-oh". So hurray for him. Mikelle is doing well and getting pretty sassy. I hate taking her anywhere because she pretty much refuses to listen and we leave the park, pool, museum, whatever, with me dragging her out and yelling and almost swearing at her; but she is still a sweetheart some of the time. I am seven months pregnant next week and things are going good there.

I'm so sorry but feel peace in knowing that this must be a stage...the whole refusing to listen/obey when you know darn well they understand you.

Wow! And congratulations! Castle Rock sounds like a very nice place to live.
You paint a funny picture of Mikelle, but it's probably nor funny at all while it's happening.
Can't wait to visit Colorado and see you all, the old babies and the new babies!
Take lots of snaps (naps and snacks). Your big day is just around the corner. Love ya sweetie.
