2015 - the next chapter

Well the blog has been down six months and a few things have happened. We said goodbye to our bestest friends, packed up our tiny condo at the beach, loaded up our cars and drove halfway across the country to our new home. My parents met us here, helped us unpack, Noah flew back to San Diego to tie up loose ends, drove to Denver for a second time, we celebrated Christmas, we all got the flu, we celebrated New Years, I started a new job and the kids started new schools. We've been in Denver for a little over a month and I guess it is starting to feel like home. Like a nice, cold home. :)

The kids have probably adjusted better than me and Noah. Finn loved school from day 1 which has been a huge relief. He is now a Teller Tiger instead of a Pacific Beach Penguin. His new buddies are Charlie and Zoey. Sophia and Emmett are still together at a preschool/daycare and both seem pretty happy. It's a montessori and Sophia has loved having all kinds of new independence. Sophia quit sucking her fingers (major) and Emmett is cruising around all of the furniture and threatening to walk any day.

Here are a few pictures from the last couple of weeks and I promise to get back to my old blog-posting ways.


Our new house!

Somewhere along the 1800+ mile drive...

Making Christmas cookies.

Opening stockings - Bapa got a bottle opener made out of a rock!

I love his face. Bundled up and jammed into the stroller.

What we've been up to

It's been cold and snowy! We got almost a foot of snow on Monday afternoon and the kids had a snow day on Tuesday. They got hours of TV in the morning and then Noah came home and we all went sledding. The hill by our house was absolutely packed with kids. We had so much fun. Emmett cried and cried, saying "brrrr" until I threw him on a sled with me and flew down the hill. He cried the first time, and then loved it after that. Sophia and Finn were both so brave. Noah build them a jump and they both flew over it on the sleds over and over again. Finn loves to shovel the sidewalk. Noah snowboarded a couple days over the weekend so Finn was the man of the house - shoveling so Sophia doesn't have to even walk on the snow. Ha! Sledding! I went to a fun wine tasting party with other Teller moms on Saturday night. This was the welcome to the party.  Story time! Oh Emmett. 

Sophia turns 5!

Our little bunny turned FIVE last week! I can't even believe it, a whole hand. She took lollies to school for her classmates, and then we had a party at La Jolla Rec Center on Sunday. Complete with a bounce house, pizza and a cake big enough to feed at least 100 people. Seriously, the cake was ridiculous. Apparently I ordered a full sheet instead of a quarter or a half. Oooopsies. I think five is gonna be a great year for Soph. She has made lots of new friends and is so happy to go to school everyday. I'm so happy she's in TK, she is loving it. She got a new bike from us, and lots of cool art stuff from friends, and her first Barbie! She also got another Wonder Woman costume from Nay Nay, thank goodness. Cruisin' on her new ride. Now we just have to get rid of those training wheels.  The actual night of her birthday she requested pasta so we went to Filipi's in PB. Hadn't been there in at least a decade and it did not disappoint. The waitstaff sang her ...

Our trip to Croatia

Helloooo! Well, we've had a few things going on so the blog has been neglected. But I want to post pictures from our last two trips this summer - Croatia and Italy. The first week of August, we flew to Split, Croatia and stayed there for a night at an Airbnb. Split is a big city with a great downtown area full of outdoor cafes, a huge jewelry market and is a main port to a whole bunch of Croatian islands. We spent 5 amazing days in Croatia - we absolutely loved this place. Gorgeous scenery, friendly people, very touristy with people from all over the world and inexpensive.  One of the many beaches in Split...     Noah bought a sweet raft for the kids. He about passed out blowing it up. Afternoon at the beach. Me and Finnster looking for a lunch spot. Sophia became a little fish this summer. She loved all the hotel pools and lakes/oceans/seas we came across. She met a friend this day, Thea, who we played with at the beach all day and then coinciden...
