DAVIS
Davis is...pretty chillax. That really is the best word I have to describe it thus far. People are friendly, the environment is pretty (not to mention cool), and there's a lot of fun stuff to do with the kids. The first whole week we were here Owen woke up every morning asking "go to the park?" It is literally 5 or 6 houses down, and HUGE...kinda hard to say no. So, we venture over to the park daily, sometimes two and three times, even in the dark!
Some of the great things about Davis so far: 1. Park 2. We ride our bikes everywhere, even to Church! 3. Kid friendly (seriously great) 4. Yummy local food...great pizza, thai, and other places to eat 5. Awesome downtown, farmers market, and local events
Yaya came for a visit and we had a blast! Check out the pictures! We welcome all visitors :) Owen and Harper are growing up so fast, and enjoying every minute!
KIDDOS
Owen got a major haircut! (As did Aaron and I). He is learning Davis language "park, downtown, train, tunnel, Co-Op and Nugget (grocery store), and a new favorite Frozen Yogurt." After pretty much stalking the park daily for people Owen has made friends this week and is starting to play with kids instead of mommy! Owen has been riding a two wheeler for a little while now, which is so much fun. Other than two year old tantrums and fits he seems to be pretty healthy and happy. Night terrors have started up again, even in the day time...prayers for restful sleep are appreciated! They are still unsure if any of it is related to Beckers, but hopeful that it's not.
Harper has been walking for about two months now and she's flying! That girl sure is determined. Her favorite things at the park are walking up slides, swings, and a springy horse. She still has NO teeth! Amazing! However, she sure can devour some food. She eats all table food, except cottage cheese. She is starting to answer questions, usually with a nod or "yah." Yaya taught her how to shake her head No! She loves playing on bikes, push cars, or anything that has wheels. She just got her first helmet for our bike trailer and is adorable in it. Oh yeah, Harper will be one on Halloween...I cannot believe it.
Both kids started going to BSF with my on Thursdays (Bible Study Fellowship) and are meeting new people, and experiencing new things. They love being outside. We are working on a schedule, and trying to get them both to nap at the same time...which is so nice when it happens!
Here's some recent pictures...enjoy!

Too cute!
Oh yeah, thanks cousins!!!
Always putting on a show (Owen received this guitar from his Big Bear class as a going away gift. It is a beautiful reminder of how we will always be connected, and how important music is!).
Learning to rock, like her brother!
