Visiting Grandma & Grandpa in Colorado


Click here to see our Colorado pictures!

We just got back from a very snowy week in Colorado where we had a fantastic time! We spent our days cozied up by the fire or out playing in the snow. The weather wasn't too harsh - in fact, the days were sunny and clear, and in the evenings it would snow several inches giving a fresh coat of powder for the coming day. I don't think I have seen such great snow in Colorado in years!

Uncle Steven joined us this trip, but Daddy couldn't make it since he had to work :(
Luca is flat out obsessed with his Uncle Steven and just at the mention of Steven's name Luca breaks into song, dance and hyperactivity. It is really special to see the connection the two of them share. (Also endearing to see Steven interact with someone who is at his level of maturity - hehe)

During this past week Luca's speech seemed to advance quite a bit and now he is speaking in little sentences - like:

airplane flying in the sky
mommy's cookin' in the kitchen
ridin' in my new car
take it off
don't like it (used to be "like it" when he didnt like something)
fill the cup with water
my hair is wet
riding the bus
there goes a taxi cab
dadda has a hat on
play with gears (thanks for the great toy Marilyn & Don!)

Also, the Mother Goose book we received from cousin Marcia is always in demand and he is reciting some of the verses:

cow jumped over the moon
peter piper picks peppers
rockabye baby treetops
row row boat on stream
in the cupboard for a bone
