Weekend in Salt Lake City

Catching up with Uncle Benny.

Meeting Sarah.
Heading out for Dane's first ski run.

Waiting in line for the lift.

Catching the chair.

Away they go! Dane thought the lift was a blast. He called it his "helicopter ride."

Zooming down the hill with Daddy.

Making a friend.

Ben and Sarah.

Mugging with Brother.

Dinner at the Rodizio Grill, a Brazilian steakhouse.

After a swim.

First tracks in the new snow before we headed for home yesterday.

Big Boy Room

A little over a week ago, we made the transition from Dane's nursery and crib that he had slept in ever since we brought him home from the hospital to his new room with a "big boy bed." He must have misunderstood me, because he calls this his new "good boy bed"!! He did pretty well and only fussed a little the first two nights at bedtime. He really seems to like his new room. His old room waits empty for little Joey's arrival.

A kiss for Daddy before bedtime.

January in Nevada

As in every place we've lived, Nevada has its ups and downs. A definite "up" is this view from my window as I eat breakfast on a January morning. I absolutely love these trees- we have two of them in our backyard.

Daddy and Dane share storytime.
Dane always insists on pushing his lawnmower into Teddy's doghouse, but he gets very upset when he can't get it turned around in such a tight space!

Daddy and Dane on Saturday. Mike's organization helped sponsor a Resolution Walk and 5k at a local park. It was a beautiful day with temps in the 60's.

Next weekend, we head to Salt Lake City to meet Benny and Sarah for some skiing/boarding. Of course, I have to stay off the slopes, but it will be nice to have a little weekend away!
