First post

Hello everyone. Thanks to my dear friend Lynn, Mike and I finally got a blog started up. So, in this first entry of ours I will try to get everyone caught up. I was out in California for about 10 years and in the last 2 of those 10 I met Mike, got pregnant, had Lilly Rose Gisbert, and moved to Colorado (I don't know why I didn't try to space that out a little better, but that's the way life goes sometimes). So, thanks to Lynn (once again) and Sam, we are staying with them in their beautiful home in Colorado. I met Lynn out in Cali and I am so glad I did because she one of the greatest people I know! Her and Sam moved out to Colorado about 2 1/2 years ago. They have two enormous dogs (Pepper and Halie) who Lilly seems to enjoy looking at. Halie loves Lilly and is a little protective of her, the other day I think she got mad at the jumper thinking it was hurting lilly in some way, so she starting barking at it or Mike (telling him to take her out). It is very pretty out here, we are able to go outside and see the mountains everyday. It is a bit chilly right now, but since I grew up in Minnesota I definitely know cold and this is nothing compared to out there. I am a stay at home mom for now... I'm not sure how long I will be able to do it, but I'm loving the time I get to see Lilly grow.























Lilly is the love of my life.. along with Mike of course. She is growing so fast and she is only 3 months old (ok not until Dec 5th, but still). She is a little colicky, which is keeping Mike and I on our toes. Everyone tells us that kids that are colicky turn out to be very smart, which is a good thing because once she gets to be older and makes all kinds of money she can buy her momma a good home to go crazy in. She is not doing much lately, but I can tell she is getting frustrated with just sleeping, eating, and getting nice dirty diapers for mom and dad to change. She loves morning time, bath time, and getting car rides. She has just experienced her 1st snow yesterday...she didn't seem too amused but I think Mike liked it (since he hasn't seen to much of it growing up in Cali).



















Mike is doing well. He is trying to get used to the Colorado living. I think he finally realized he cant wear shorts and flip flops the whole year round anymore (I even caught him in a beanie today!). It is hard for him because he misses his son Sean terribly, but he is very excited to go home to visit in December. Sean is his 3 year old son from a previous relationship. He is the cutest little boy who loves spider man, the silver surfer, and candy. He is the best big brother to Lilly too. I cant wait to go back to California again so we can see him.





























I will try my best to continue to keep this thing up and everyone informed on our lives out here. So goodbye for today.

oh.. btw.. GO VIKINGS! (they play the Bears tonight!)
