9 Month Babe

Embry is still so amazing. She is the best baby! She has had such a hard life since around December. She's been plagued with thrush, RSV, and an ear infection! But you would never know! She's just so pleasant all of the time! However, we are starting to see a little fire in her! It's awesome! I mean, I know where this fire leads - to INSANE toddlerhood. But I like that my kids are intense. They have strong personalities and don't back down. Embry is no exception. She has started battling her older brother now. It's hilarious. He'll usually give in to her because he can be a sweet brother. But she'll grab something from him and scream and not let go until it's hers.

January

Here's how our 2014 started out - with an awesome visit from the New Year's baby! Spending time with the Ruggles was the perfect way to bring in the new year! We miss our friends!

 Sunday naps are the best naps...


Liv was obsessed with the sweet baking basket she got from Aunt Megan. She is the cutest little baker and of course demanded to make them completely on her own. It was pretty impressive.

Livy's first musical number in church! She was so amazing! She definitely has Nana's Jordan blood running strong in her. She's such a natural when she performs and she's only 5! The best part was when she said that she prayed that she wouldn't be nervous and then she told me the Holy Ghost helped her not be scared. It was such an awesome experience to share with her. And yes, Nana is playing the piano for it. We wouldn't have it any other way.

This little dude became a sunbeam this year! He's been awesome in Primary.

Here's how Noah spent the last couple weeks in my uterus - completely on the right side just like all of the other babies! It was so painful.

Adam LOVES to help me vacuum. It's the best. 

I had no idea it had snowed like this outside and I had promised the kiddlies that they could go out and play. So we suited up and went outside anyway! Embry basically had her face in the snow eating as much as possible while we were out. Adam kept singing Frozen Heart and pretending to break up the ice. Liv decided to resurrect our snowman. Liv and Adam are pretty awesome at rolling snowballs.

Adam moved back into his room and we got him a new bed. He was so excited when he arranged all of his animals - he asked me to take a pic. 

The kids' last hurrah as our family of 5! Luckily, they think trafalga is the best place on Earth...

Grandma Sherrie got us this sweet magnet set that I LOVE because no piece is too small for Embry to swallow! Yay! The kids are obsessed with building new creations with these. 

 
These two are either best friends or worst enemies. It's nice when I get to see the best friends part.

Em loves the bubbles app which also allowed me to do this to her hair! It's getting harder to keep her sitting still lately.

Embry's one!!!

This baby turned one! I can't believe it. Her first year has been a whirlwind! She has added the sweetest little personality to our family. She has been the best baby! We are all pretty crazy about her!

I'm one!

Here's how we decorated...


The kids LOVED showing her how to enjoy a birthday!

And they loved teaching her how to open presents!

She loved her books!

Later that day, Liv had a field trip to the zoo! So we turned it into a birthday/field trip extravaganza!





After the zoo we headed home for dinner and cake with some family!

Once the day was over she was over the whole birthday thing...

Partied Hard

Later she scored some sweet presents from the grandmas! She was in heaven!
