This picture kind of gives you an idea of what my hair has been like since living in a humid climate.

4 months old!

Collin just turned four months old on Friday and so today I took him to his appointment and he is doing great, if you can't already tell. His stats were:
-19 lbs. 9 oz.
-26" long
Collin is the sweetest and best baby, which is a huge blessing having the three little dudes. I just wish I could stop time for a while and keep him the way he is without getting any bigger, it goes by too fast. He has started to giggle, which pretty much just melts my heart every time he does it, and is more interested in things around him. The doctor said, because he is so big, to get him started on rice cereal now instead of waiting until six months, and I was so excited! When I told Ryan about it, he said we should forget about the rice cereal and give him some of Omaha's famous beef. :) I love kissing his scrumptious cheeks and pinching those thunder thighs, I'm so glad he's my baby!

We made it to Omaha and are loving it! I've posted some pics and have a few more I will post soon. The move went really well and the boys were awesome the whole way. It was so great to have Ryan's mom come out with us, it made it that much more fun coming out. We are so lucky to be living where we are at, the people welcome you with open arms and treat you like they've known you forever. Omaha is so much prettier and more green than I expected. :)I love our little home and am so happy there is more room to spare. Noah and Jax are also loving it here and are adjusting quite well. They have lots of new friends and practically live outside.

Ryan started school a few days after we got here, but was able to paint a few rooms and tile the bathroom countertop with granite before the beginning of the semester. I love my handy man and am so proud of him for pursuing his dreams while taking care of his family at the same time.

I think the best part for me is that we live by the other nine families in the class that also moved out here at the same time. We all became instant friends at the beginning of school last fall and feel so lucky to have them close by. We've already had a few BBQs and fun get togethers since we've been here and are looking forward to the next three years here in Omaha!

This turkey was roaming around in our back yard.We love seeing the fun little animals they have all around here; luckily we haven't seen any snakes yet!
