All Aboard!

We have had a couple of VERY exciting weeks. Here are just a few things that have happened:

-We went house hunting, fell in love with the third house we saw, and put an offer on it
-That offer got accepted two days later
-Tommy took his first airplane ride
-Crystal and Tommy visited her family in Salt Lake
-Tommy learned how to hold toys and how to bring things to his mouth
-Ben got a promotion
-Ben went on his first official business trip to Monterey, CA
-Ben, Crystal, and Tommy went to Eugene, OR, for another business trip
-Crystal chopped off her hair
-Tommy got his swaddle blanket taken away
-Ben lost 10 pounds
-Ben went river rafting
-Tommy learned how to sleep more than 30 minutes at a time during the day
-We went with our first hike with Tommy

Now we are home, trying to get things back to normal and pack up our apartment to move at the end of the month. Our new home is in Goodyear. We are sad to leave our awesome friends in Mesa, but we are so excited for the adventure of meeting new friends! Here are a few pictures from the last couple of weeks.

Congratulations again on the house, what fun adventures! Alex is also putting things in his mouth now, it's so fun to watch them gain new skills!
Good luck with the move!
