January

I didn't take too many pictures this month. Mostly just of Suki and Riley, haha. Riley loves having Suki and takes good care of her. Suki will sit on her lap while she plays the nintendo DS and she sleeps with her at night. She is such a sweet little kitty.

A few other happenings in January:

• Cooper locked us in the basement. Luckily I found a screw driver and so I was able to pick the lock! 
• Basketball started this month and so I had fun starting my new calling as the Assistant Stake Sports Director
• Riley: "Mom, I love you more than anything." Me: (get a little teary eyed). Riley: "Actually, I love you the same as I love Suki." Haha! I'm glad I rank right up there with her kitty!

Grandma Riley

The day after Christmas we went down to Nephi to visit Grandma Riley. She is so cute and sweet. Cooper calls her "GG Grandma", it's really cute. We grabbed some lunch and we all had a fun time together with Grandma.

Riley loves spending time with Suki. One night I went in to check on her and this is what I found. She sure loves her kitty!

Christmas!

Christmas was so fun this year! It was great being in Utah and being close by family. I think as the kids get older it just gets even more fun seeing how excited they get about everything. They also better understand that we are celebrating the birth of Christ and so it was fun being able to tell them the story of Jesus' birth.

All Riley wanted for Christmas was new kitten. We told Riley that we weren't sure if Santa would be able to bring a real kitty, but I guess we were wrong! :)  Ryan asked Santa for The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword game for the Wii. He had been so excited about it ever since Casey showed him the game trailer online. Cooper asked Santa for a new truck. Poor Coops ended up being so so sick on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. It was so sad, but he is a tough little guy and still had a fun day.  

Here's a video of Ryan and Riley opening their gifts from Santa

Kendall

We love our little Kendall girl! I get a little sad knowing she is our last baby...I try to savor all the little moments with her because she is just growing up so fast! She is a happy girl and such a sweet baby. She loves Riley and her brothers, and loves watching them play. They can always get her to laugh!
