Nap anyone?

What two year asks for a nap???? I swear our little Kallon sleeps sooo much, a lot more than your average two year old. Not that I'm complaining I actually LOVE it, but its so funny to me. Here is what happened to bring on this thought. This morning Cory had a tennis match and had to be there at 8:30. I decided I would wait until Kallon got up that we would meet him later because as much as I love chasing a two year old in the heat 6 months pregnant I decided it would be best to just catch the last bit of the match. Kallon woke up about 9:15 and we ate breakfast and I finished getting ready. We got to the tennis courts around 10:00 and Cory just finished losing the second set. He won the first so now he had split sets and had to play a third. Kallon and I sat on the picnic table and watched tennis and he was being suprisingly good. He would sit by me then climb on the table, then get down and run around the table but he never ran off like usual. Its not like he used a lot of energy running away from me. We got home around 11:30am and Kallons says "Mom, I want to take a nap." I said no not yet its still too early, do you want to watch a movie or play a game?" NO. Then I said "well lets wait a little while and then we will go take a nap." With that I went to my bedroom to go change. As I came back out Kallon was not where I left him, so I went looking for him in his room and guess what I found. Kallon laying in his bed with his plethera of stuffed animals, blankets, his fire(pacifier), and his eyes squeezed closed. I asked him if he was sure he wanted to take a nap and he said "yes mommy leave, I can sleep, then go to park, close the door!" WHAT!!! He is such a little smart alec, but if he wants to sleep I am sure not going to aruge with him!:)

We made it!

After three LONG days of driving and just in time for a pretty serious hurricane approaching we have arrived in our new home of San Antonio Texas! We got here Monday night and unloaded with the help of Jared, Jennie and their friends (thanks you guys). My mom and I have been unpacking ever since and I think we've done it except for three boxes in Cory and I's room that I really don't want to open. So other than picture and curtain hanging I think its done-hallelujah. I actually really like our apartment. I was so nervous to see it but Jennie approved so I knew it couldn't be that bad. Its just a little scary moving into a place you've never seen before. It's way bigger than Mckinley manor and we have two bathrooms and washer/dryer hook-ups and a dishwasher!!! Its pretty sad when you get all worked up over having your own dishwasher!:) Anyways we are in a gated apartment complex which is nice. We are on the third floor and have a great view out of our balcony. I am very happy with it so far and now that it looks like an apartment instead of a storage unit I think we will really enjoy it. As far as San Antonio I don't know yet. My mom and I ventured out Tuesday afternoon and I couldn't find what we were looking for so I called Cory on the verge of tears asking him how to get back to the apartment. I knew that I could have just turned around and went back the way we came but I thought I knew the city pretty well becasue or our one week vacation here last summer-dumb assumption. I do not know where anything is and its very frustrating. My mom and I don't even leave the apartment unless Cory is with us to drive or tell me where to go. Poor Jennie has gotten quite a few phone calls from Cory asking her to look up directions for us. I think once I drive around I will figure it out-I hope. The city is a lot bigger than good 'ol Pocatello Id. The other reason I don't want to leave the house is the humidity! Its awful, I feel like I can't breathe when I step outside and the worst part is that is doesn't cool off at night-not at all!!! That is going to take some getting used to. Kallon is doing well but I think he knows that something is different. He is sooo cuddley since we've been here and that is not Kallon at all. He never wants to sit still but there has been no major meltdowns. He also did so well on the way down. I think we watched Cars about 6 times in three days in the car. He only cried 10 minutes the entire trip and it was when we were just pulling into San Antonio-he is such a trooper! Cory has an interview tomorrow so cross your fingers that he gets it. Its a little scary not having any money coming in. We are doing well but we miss home. We stopped at Carlsbad Caverns on the way down so I am posting some pictures of that. If you ever get a chance to go I would recommend it!
