A baptism and cute kids!

Emma's friend Austin was baptized on Saturday in Martin's Cove and we were able to attend. It was such a wonderful baptism and the spirit was so strong. Here are Austin, Porter, and Emma. These little boys are such good friends of Emma's.
 
 
The kids had new outfits from Grandma Becky so after the baptism we took some pictures then Emma and I went to the bathroom and Robert took some cute ones of Jakob.








 
These two are my favorite!

Best Buddies!

 
I found these cute pictures of my cute kiddos! They are such good buddies! I love that Emma can read to Jakob. 
 






First Day of School!

I can't believe this girl is a second grader! We sure love our Emma. She brings a lot of joy and love to our home. She is smart, spunky, loving, beautiful, kind, I could go on and on. Her teacher is Mrs. Mischke and she seems great! Her brother gave her a big hug when she got home today. I think he is going to miss her a lot. We are all going to miss her!
 
Here she is at her back to school open house! She was so excited to have her own desk!
 
Here is a fun one of Jakob just because.





 
She is in a bigger school that is for grades 2-5. She was very concerned about not knowing where the bathroom was. So cute! Here she is in her classroom.

Exciting News!

Baby number 3 is on their way! I'm due on my birthday February 15th! I'm 13 weeks now and finally starting to feel better. We are so excited for our newest little peanut!!!
 
 
We found out on our trip to Minneapolis and about 5:30 in the morning. We were completely shocked after deciding to take a break from fertility medicine.

 
 



Swimming Lessons!

We have been doing swimming lessons the last 3 weeks. Emma has been doing great and is now in level 3 and working on her strokes. She is working hard and I'm so proud of her. She loves to get better at things and do her best. We got lucky this second session she is the only person in her class so for last week and this week she has had private lessons. We have one more week and I'm excited for all she can learn! Jakob has just been doing lessons for last week and this week. His Daddy comes on his lunch break to swim with him. He loves it! He has no fear of the water and will jump right in!
 
 



 

 
 

 
 


Rodeo with friends!

 
 
We had a fun time at the rodeo with some friends this last week. Of course Emma's favorite thing is the cotton candy. We went with our friends Trevor, Mel, and their daughter Tinsley who is Emma's good friend.

Fun Weekend!

 
We had a fun busy weekend. On Friday night we were in Laramie for a doctor's appointment and then afterwards headed to Cheyenne for some much needed shopping, including school shopping! Emma was super excited. She is quite the little shopper.
 
 
On Saturday morning we went with our friends, the Willdens, to a parade for fair week here in Rawlins. Here are Emma and Emma with the junior rodeo princess.

 
Sunday was Daddy's birthday!!! It was also kind of a crazy day. Emma had to come home from church to get some relief for some serious mosquito bites. She is a little bit allergic to mosquitos and while she went out for a little bit to play with her friends the night before they ate her up. Poor baby! After the medicine she felt a lot better!
 
Our Jakey, fell asleep on the floor Sunday afternoon. He has been so hard to get to take a nap. It's so funny when he does this. He plays and plays and then just lays down and falls asleep! What a cutie!
 

 
Then after a special dinner of homemade pizza. We celebrated Daddy with cheesecake!
Happy Birthday Daddy!

Sinclair Picnic

Another Sinclair Picnic in the books!!! We had a good time and Emma was able to hang out with her friend Tinsley. Jakob loved the fire truck!
 


 
He didn't love the bouncy house. :(

 
Emma loved the water slide! Jakob was a little too little so his Daddy took him to the playground.


 
I was so proud of Emma and how great she did on the climbing wall. She challenged herself and pushed herself to the top! Daddy even joined her on a couple of runs.




 
Emma and Tinsley with their air brushed "tattoos." We also took some fun pics in the photo booth but Jakob didn't really want to do it so they didn't turn out great.
 
We had a great time as a family!
