The Climber

Tate's new favorite thing is to climb up onto things, onto anything. He climbs on his step stool, his lawnmower, his wipes container...anything that will make him that much taller to reach those things we thought were out of his reach. With his growing and now his climbing, we may have to start hanging things on the ceiling.

Zoo

We visited the Denver Zoo today. I went about a week ago with a college hockey teammate and her three boys, and Tate had so much fun that we bought a membership. So today Tate wanted to show Nick around. Tate loved the leopards, lemurs, and tigers best today. It is a really great zoo, so I am sure we will get our money's worth.

Our Stuff Arrived

We finally got our stuff today and Nick's car arrived last night. Unfortunately, there were some problems. Our bed got chipped up, Tate's bookshelf is broken, and Tate's highchair is definitely not up to safety standards anymore (the legs don't lock)...hopefully we won't find more problems as we unpack. Also, Nick's car showed up with a flat. Now onto the fun of trying to get reimbursed for this stuff.

On a happier note, we got out and had a lot of fun over the weekend. Nick had work off on Friday, so we drove to the Coors Brewery. It was a decent tour, though the plant was shut down so we didn't get to see the process in motion. The three free beers at the end were definitely nice. We then checked out the Cherry Creek Mall which is walking distance from our new apartment. Saturday we went back to our new neighborhood which was hosting an art fair. We walked around, saw some cool art, and ate a lot of fair food. Sunday, we drove up to Boulder for lunch and to visit our friends Matt and Conner.

Now back to unpacking...
