I have a sitter!

Ryker is officially sitting now. He is still a little wobbly but gets better everyday.  Of course his sisters and Jayce are so good to sit by him to catch him if he starts to fall.

Meet the newest member of our family.

This is Rambo.

He is a 5 year old Belgian Malinois (pronounced mal in nwa). Rambo is a K-9 with the Highway Patrol and Dustin is now his handler. We are excited to have Rambo as part of our family and for the changes that he will bring to Dustin and his career. Dustin had to give up a brand new Charger that he was only weeks away from getting for the K-9 patrol car but he says it is worth it..   Koda isn't too sure he likes Rambo but we are hoping they will get along or we will have to find a new home for Koda. 

Kenzie's birthday party

We had to have Kenzie's party a couple of days early so her dad wouldn't miss out on the fun since he had to be out of town for a few days. I do believe the princess got everything she wanted and more!!  (her list was very specific: Lots of Barbies, and a purple princess bike)
Thanks everyone!

Where's the baby?

I love it when the babies discover the 'baby in the mirror'   everytime he gets in his toy he looks for the baby now. It is SO cute.

Just for laughs here is Kenzie when she was the same age doing the same thing:

Ryker's 6 month photo shoot

Warning...  there may be a LOT of pictures on this post. I can never choose....   

What a cutie!!!!

and I haven't had a chance to show off this picture yet either so:

ooh and this one too...

Love my kids!  Haylee got her hair cut too so I will have to snag her for a photo soon.

Happy 6 months Ryker

Where did the time go?



Today Ryker is 6 months old.
He weighs 15 lbs 10 oz and is 25.1 inches long.

We will get some new pictures done as soon as his legs feel better from the shots.

Easter/Conference/Birthday Weekend...whew

Does that title make anyone else tired?

Anytime my birthday is around a weekend it is always Conference weekend. This year we added Easter to the mix too and it made for a great weekend. We went to Ephraim Friday and Saturday.  KJ and Leah and Cheston all made it down too.

We hunted for Easter baskets

And Easter eggs

This one is priceless! She kept screaming and running around. 

Ohh!  even little baby steck got her eggs.

and decorated Grandma Fran's gravesite.

and celebrated my birthday (I am 24.99 + shipping and handling now)

my mom got me a cute willow tree family.

I got a new purse, the wii fit plus game, New Moon (yay), lots of cards, a little money, a shirt from my friends, and some really yummy scents for my melter. I felt so spoiled.

Sunday we went to Dustin's parents and hung out there. His sister and her family were down. The boys were so cute together. We put them together and they would try to grab each other (they are only 8 weeks apart).


Monday (my actual birthday) I went to lunch with some friends and read a book all afternoon, and then we ordered pizza and watched a movie all together. It was a great day. Thanks to all who sent birthday wishes. I appreciate it!
