The last while has been so crazy. We got a call about 2 months ago saying we could have this place for a cheaper rent and it is closer to school....so we packed up, found renters for the old place, cleaned and cleaned, had some mishaps, and now we are offically moved. It has been really awesome to be out of basements and actually have WINDOWS you can SEE out of. (Actually we have 12 and I love it!!!! So do the kids.) Still have a little more unpacking to do, but we are pretty much settled. Last week Danny got called into the Branch Presidency as 2nd Counsler and me as 1st Counsler in the Young Women's Presidency.

Our First Meal in the new place: Pasta with Red Sauce and Juice
Definetely going to need a bath

Just got out of the bath from eating pasta. Lydia's face cracks me up every time I see this picture. Then of course Doctor Joe. Hilarious!

Joey's handy work at Grandma Z's house:
A couple weekends ago during Thanksgiving, while visiting Grandma and Grandpa Z, Joey was being too quiet so I went to investigate. When I got into the master bathroom I discovered Joey and all Grandma's drink cups lined up along the tub along with some in the tub. He was very proud.

DECEMBER
Lately we have been really enjoying going to the mall and playing with our friend Ethan and his mommy every Monday and Thursday morning. Joey and Lydia both love going there and it is great for them to have a chance to play with so many kids.

ALL BUNDLED AND READY TO WEATHER THE COLD

Winnie the Pooh had to come with us one time too. He rode on Joey's shoulders and even got to go down the slide and have a snack.

My Recent Rescue from the DI.....much to Danny's dismay. I just figured my sister Laura would need something to put her clothes in.....and I don't mind using it once she is gone. Pull my leg.
This is after I cleaned off all the coloring and stickers. Must have been in a little girl's room. For now it is staying as is until I can decide what to change it to.*

Burst my heart! Joey and Lydia are watching a show together.
Joey is so cute with Lydia...always mindful and watching out for her. Today while playing at the mall, another little boy was picking on her and trying to take the stroller she was pushing. Joey came out of noware and socked the kid. He got put in time-out of course but I was a proud momma. I will have to watch out for him.
