What we're up to!!

Well no pictures this post. Just thought I would do a little post about what we have been up to. If not for you then for me since I am horrible at journaling. Right now we live in Oro Valley, AZ, which is just North Tucson. So far we like it better than Glendale, AZ, but still really miss Colorado. Tyrel is working for Atlas Copco being a field service mechanic. So far he is working mostly in the shop to do some training, but will soon be on the road. Of course I am not looking forward to that part. His boss just asked him yesterday if he was ready to be on the road and how his wife felt about it. Tyrel told him his wife is fine with it. Well not really, but in order for Tyrel to really get down and dirty doing Diesel engine work he needs to be in the field. Not a lot happens in the shop and he won't be able to learn a lot there. So for that reason I am fine with it. The few times they have sent him on the road he has loved it. Also when he took the job we knew it would include traveling, but felt it was the right job for our family. They hired him also with the intensions of transfering him to Colorado in a year. I can't wait to move to Pagosa Springs, because with Tyrel traveling I rather be by family to keep me and Cooper company while he is gone. Here is Tucson I don't really know anyone. I do have family in Mesa and Cooliage, but it's kind of a drive. It is so nice though to have Tyrel done with school. When he works at the shop he works from 6am to about 4pm. So he does get home early which is a big change from his original schedule of only home fore lunch. Cooper and I are doing great at home. He cracks me up. His little personality is starting to shine. He still loves to dance and is starting to try some new moves. I already see his imaginationg starting to grow. He is starting to give rolls to the toys in his hands. He learned how to shake his head "no" even though he doesn't always quite understand when to use it or that no means stop. He'll shake his head no when he is getting into something he knows he shouldn't, but do it anyway. He has the biggest grin and the loudest laugh. He laughs at everything. It catches everyone's attention and it very contagious. He does it sparatically and over the littlest things. I had to take him out of sacrament and relif society because he laughs too much. When we visit family or friends they can't believe his laugh. He also learned to put his head on the ground and bum up in the air and look upside down. He thinks it's hilarious. He is great at entertaining himself. He will play in his room all by himself and even shut his door. Even when he is crying I still think he is cute and can't believe he's mine!! I am still processing loans for Starwest Mortgage at home. I haven't really done any in a while, due to moving and then a two week trip to Washington, and then a week trip to Colorado. Now I am finishing one and have two more on the way. They are pretty easy to do, and don't take up too much time. The only projects I have going on are scrapbooking, which I love, and kind of decorating my apartment. I didn't do anything in the last one knowing we were moving. Even though I know we are moving in a year here also, I was just bored of white walls so I had to do something. Well that is enough for now. Our little family is doing great and couldn't be happier!!! Hope all of you are your families are doing great too!!
