Huge Update!

Okay...so I hope that if you are reading this, you have some time because this post is going to be quite lengthy! I have not been updating like a good little blogger recently because we have been so busy getting settled into the new house and most of our time has been taken up unpacking and exploring our new surroundings. We have taken quite a few driving trips around the area just to get a lay of the land. But since my last blog on for Archer's six month update, a lot has happened! Lets start with Archer...

Archer News - On October 8, we confirmed that Archer is now babbling "da-da" over and over again. He goes from yelling it to a very faint whisper. It makes Nick smile, although he denied that he was saying it for a little while, but on the morning of the 8th, Archer made it very clear to "da-da" exactly what he was saying! He is eating a lot more foods now, and we found out very quickly that the little man really hates peas! He seems to think they are quite nasty. We have tried them on several different occasions and I just don't think this is a food he is going to like. He does still enjoy his sweet potato, carrots, apples and pears. He is still trying hard to crawl with lots of bouncing and trying to drag himself on his elbows. Sleeping has been a tough subject. He goes from being a great sleeper for a few nights to hardly sleeping at all. We are trying to work out a schedule, and now that we are settled into the house I think (and hope) this will only get easier!

Colorado News - we LOVE LOVE LOVE it here. So far, Colorado has shown us that it has a lot to offer and I couldn't be more pleased. The scenery is beautiful...shopping is great and from the restaurants we have tried so far, dining seems to be wonderful. Our home on the base is just gorgeous. The dogs seem to be adjusting and are enjoying the full use of their back yard. Nick is learning his way around his new squadron, and we have a dinning out to attend tomorrow. Here is a tour of the house. Forgive me, because when I shot this, it was still a bit messy from the unpacking. Also, I didn't narrate because I think I have a highly annoying voice so enjoy! I also forget that I cannot rotate videos, so sorry you will have to watch it sideways!
