Jalen showing his big toothy grin...4 on top now and almost 4 on bottom!!! Also his new favorite thing to do is to walk all by himself from one person to another, he can take 4-5 steps by himself!
Jalen invading Jude's personal space yet once again!

my new centerpiece I made for the fall...can't believe it's almost or is already, here!
Our laundry room, loving the new washer and dryer...they play music when they are done, kind of scared us all at first!

Walking in the new home
Jalen loves walking around the house with his walker and is getting pretty good at it too, just have to re-direct him when he runs into walls and furniture but he thinks it's hysterical. More pictures of the house to come tonight so keep checking back.

Getting settled in
So we are getting settled in and I thought I'd try to get a few pictures up. Our room and the spare room is still in boxes for the most part but I will keep posting pictures as we get rooms set up. Jalen's is almost done but he's sleeping so I didn't want to wake him with a camera flash, I'll post more tomorrow. Jalen got another tooth in this past week so he now has 4 on top and 3 on the bottom, looks like number 4 is coming in soon too. He also is loving walkign around oour furniture with his pusher/walker and we got a great video that I will post tomorrow of it. Jason has worked for 3 days now and so far so good, his 80 mile drive might get cut down to 60 from a new way he heard about so he'll be trying that out on Monday. The girls (Ali and Laila) are adjusting well too, they do like thier big backyard when we are out there with them, but don't really know what to do if we aren't. Hilary and Jude are coming up on Tues-Thurs to help get our house in order more and play and my mom will be here by next weekend to start watching Jalen until we can get him into one of the day cares he is on a wait list for. I start work on the 28th (1 week from Monday) and am excited although I have been enjoying being off a working schedule since the 4th of July, back to reality! So far we are enjoying it here in Ada. Everyone is really nice and we actually have more stores and restaurants than I thought, although so far I have spent about everyday at Walmart. Well, let us know what you think and check back tomorrow...more pictures to come :) Good night!
Jalen's sad face..."I miss all my family and friends in AZ"
A view of my cabinets in the kitchen..they are really deep and spacious which is so nice to finally have more room and not have everything so crowded.
Our kitchen with a view of the inside of one of my 2 pantry/cabinets...again, very nice to have and not have to store everything in containers in the garage. The fridge is pulled out some because the molding at the bottom sticks out a little too much for the fridge to slide in so we're waiting on them to come out and fix it.
another view of the kitchen...black granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, walnut finished oak cabinets
The living room...nothing on the walls yet but the bookshelves are almost back to normal. The goal is to sell this TV and get an LCD to hang on the wall :)
Our new couch and love seat...microfiber, just arrived today! Notice the big gray mass against the wall, that is our new lovely dining room table (top) covered and just waiting on the legs to arrive since the store forgot to send them with us...so we are eating at the breakfast bar for now.
A view from the entry way/front door area.
The back corner of the living room, now Jalen's corner. Still have some decorating to do but it is nice that he has his own section now.
Daddy and Jalen napping in Jalen's chair

Holding hands/paws with Laila
All packed up in AZ and ready to go to OK!

Happy Birthday Grammie!!!
Happy birthday to you...Happy birthday to you...Happy birthday dear Grammie...Happy birthday to you! I love you and miss you sooooo much and hope you have a wonderful birthday today. I can't wait for you to come visit me again soon. Love you lots!
Happy Birthday Grammie
We thought you'd like this one Grammie...this is Jalen's new thing...he has learned how to spit and thinks it is funny, especially after we tell him "no". The worst is he loves to do it right after he takes a bite of food so we almost need to start wearing protective gear during feeding times. He's gonna be a handful.

Jalen's 1st Football Game
Jalen went to his first football game last night, ASU vs. Idaho State and ASU won of course! We only stayed until half-time since it was already way past Jalen's bed time but he did pretty good. A little hard to get to bed afterwards but overall he was a very good boy!
A happy child with snacks and relaxing on Boompa's lap
Concentrating on the game
watching the fireworks
with Auntie Julie and Uncle Brian
At home befoire the game
this is my football face...grrrr!
