Great Weekend!
We had such a wonderful weekend! Matt and Kristin came out to visit us and we all went to Breckenridge. It was so fun!
They flew in on Thursday night and at the last minute we were able to get a sitter and meet them at a local restaurant for a late dinner and some drinks. We talked and ate and had a good time. Friday morning they took off early up to Breck- about 2 hours away- because they were going to ski that day. Jason and I had decided that we'd leave at AJ's nap time; around 9am.
We got to the mountain, checked into our timeshare and unloaded our stuff. We went to lunch and froze our butts off as it was probably 15 degrees or so and windy and snowing. We still had a good time.
Later that afternoon when Matt & Kristin were done skiing, we met up at the on site restaurant for some great conversation and appetizers and just hung out. AJ napped in my arms and was such a good boy!
We didn't know until the day before that our neighbors Summer & Guido would also be there so we all got together for dinner that night. The guys BBQ'd while I put AJ down and then met up with everyone for dinner. Thankfully we were able to use the video monitor so AJ could sleep and we could enjoy the evening. We had a fun time chatting, laughing and play Pictionary :)
Saturday Matt & Kristin skied and enjoyed their day while Jason and I went snowshoeing. It was our first time and it was FUN! We put AJ in the backpack. It was sunny and warm that day and it was SOOO beautiful! We really had a nice time.
Sunday, we had planned to go to breakfast and then hit the pool (the indoor pool!) but with AJ's nap schedule we didn't end up going to the pool. We ate at a great local place and then had to head home.
It was a WONDERFUL weekend that really seemed long- in a good way. I felt like I got to spend some quality time with my brother and Kristin and that they got to spend some time with AJ. We'll get to see each other again soon in 2 weeks when AJ and I head back out to California!

Happy 8 Months!!
It's hard to believe, but Anderson is EIGHT months old today! Is it really March already?? Wasn't it just Christmas??? Didn't I just give birth?? I think as I get older, time goes so much quicker!
Anyway, with each week, Anderson gets more and more fun. He's doing so much more and is such a happy boy. I can pretty much be sure that wherever we go, he'll be happy- so long as he's fed, clean and not EXTREMELY tired. Even when he is tired, he tries to be happy.
Yesterday, I got a BIG shock! We were at a play date with a bunch of friends and AJ was sitting in front of a big toy box. I had walked into the kitchen for a second and when I came back out to check on him, I watched him PULL HIMSELF UP to the toy box! I couldn't believe my eyes! He's never done that before. He did it 3 times! I'm soooo proud! I'm going to try to get it on video here soon, but didn't have my camera yesterday.
AJ is also army crawling EVERYWHERE! Thankfully he hasn't figured out that we have more than just a kitchen and family room :) His favorite toys are the dogs collars, their water dish (which we had to move outside), rugs and the drapes! Why we actually buy him toys, I don't know! hahah!
He's also a very tough little boy. Now that he's moving everywhere, he knocks his head on things all the time and it's VERY rare that he actually cries about it. He just moves on to the next thing and it doesn't phase him.

Fun Day for Jason!
Yesterday Jasons company took he and some of his coworkers up to the mountains for the day and they got to choose an activity. They could ski, snowboard or go snowmobiling! He hadn't even been snowmobiling before, so he choose that. He had a BLAST!
He and his boss drove up to Denver where they caught a train which took them to Winter Park (2 hours away). He said some of his customers were on the trip too and he even closed a HUGE deal while he was on the train!
I'm really glad he was able to go and had such a fun time!

Hugs & Kisses
AJ is now at the age where he gives us hugs and kisses! It's the most WONDERFUL feeling as a mother to receive hugs and kisses. I will be holding him and he'll just quickly turn to me and wrap his arms around my neck and hug me- then he'll give me this huge, wet, wide, open mouth kiss:) I just hold and hug him so tightly because it just melts my heart! The only complaint I have is that he typically grabs an entire chunk of my hair when he hugs me and he's got a SERIOUSLY tight grip! I wouldn't change it tho; he can have all my hair so long as I keep getting hugs and kisses :)
Here we are at the Denver Aquarium today- what fun!!! He loved it :)
