September?

Ok, when and how did September get here? I really can't believe it. This year has FLOWN by and yet I always find myself wishing and waiting for the next best thing. Life couldn't be better right now. Earlier this spring we had put an offer on a house and it's a long story but to make it short, it all fell through. I am so glad that we didn't move! I have really enjoyed the ward we are in right now and it just keeps getting better. I feel like we fit in even though we're on the younger side of the bunch. We are also still nice and close to both of our families which is just a blessing and a joy. Another up to staying right where we're at is that we have the money to go forward with jake's business ventures. If you haven't heard by now, Jake is right in the thick of starting his very own company. It is called Decclo and we've been very busy. Fortunately I don't have to write all about it in this post, you can just click here to learn more if you'd like.

Jack is already 8 months old and barely started sitting on his own a couple weeks ago. He's kind of a lazy baby but I'm SO ok with that right now. He gets a helmet for his head in about 3 weeks. He's a little flat on the back left side of his head so a little helmet treatment for the next couple of months is the plan. He'll look a little funny but hey, better now than later and it will be in perfect timing for halloween season! Plus it will keep his head warm this winter cause he sure doesn't have enough hair right now!

Cooper is one heckuva funny guy. He really likes to push buttons....no not the electronic ones anymore. Mom and Dads buttons. But it's just so dang funny the hard part is trying not to laugh when we really should be teaching him something is wrong.... He is super energetic and loves to dance. He eats a sandwich and apples with peanut butter just about every day for lunch. He wakes up about 2-3 times per night and tries to come in our bed. That my friends, I do not laugh at. It's something we're trying to figure out still. We have bags under our eyes but we sure are happy with these two little boys of ours.

I am currently helping out at Klahowya HS with their volleyball program this fall. I have opted out of coaching club this next year in anticipation of being overloaded with Decclo. We are excited for this venture in our lives and we feel so blessed to be able to take a shot with this.

Well, there's the update. Look again in a month. just kidding, kind of :)

I heard about a mom getting her son's helmet painted so it looked cooler. I want to meet Jack, we are in Silverdale right now. Why haven't we hooked up yet?? I guess time flew by for us too! We really should catch up sometime...

So when the business takes off then you can pretty much move anywhere since it's over the internet... why not Idaho!:) There is a 5,000 square foot house that was built within the last 2 years that has been for sale since it was finished and they are already down to $275,000. It's an amazing house!!!:)
I'm glad things are going good for you guys though. Maddie just started sitting up within the past couple weeks too. And Co Co is a pistol but we sure love him!!!!! He keeps me laughing. I guess it's the age.

My little nephew had a helmet for about 5-6 months. My sister struggled with it more than he did. It will help a ton! What will be the funnest is when he is done wearing the helmet he will have so much more hair and look like a totally different kid when you finally get to take it off! Glad to hear that all is going well! Thanks for putting us under the Family listings! We definately consider you family!!! All our love!
