January in one post

Man I have gotten so behind but I am determined to do a quick catch up on that past few months. So here are a few highlights from January. 

Birthday parties with friends. Air hockey is always a hit. 

Brookey is sure she is a part of Camilla's group of friends. So sure. :)

Spencer snuck into primary one Sunday and he loved every second of it. He looks so big to me. Spencer is attending nursery happily for the most part now, which we are grateful for. 

Night time with C man. He likes staying up later than the other kids and sometimes we cuddle in the big bed and he reads. 

Morning snuggles and reading books. I have so much fun with these two. 

And some solo shenanigans with Spencer.  

I went to Houston to run a race and Aaron had a party with the kids while I was gone. Sonic for dinner and for the win. This is why the kids are so happy when I go out of time, life with Dad is way more fun. 

I had a great race, the Houston 5k was huge and just what I was hoping for. I got under the 20 minute mark and finished 3rd overall female. I was super happy with the race. 

Then I ran some cool down miles, changed in the back of the car and drove home to my family. 

We had some crazy weather for a couple of days and Austin pretty much shut down, schools, businesses, etc. Except Aaron had a huge meeting already scheduled so they got everyone hotel rooms in down town so they wouldn't miss their meetings. When I found out I would be home bound (I HATE being home bound) for possibly a few days I went to Walgreens and got a few gallons of blue bell, it was delicious every night. 

During our snow days, we played play doh and ran laps and did a group work out, watched movies and read a lot of books. 

A sweet note Camilla wrote Aaron. He loves getting these notes. Sometimes they get it, they hate for Aaron to leave each day but seem to know its important. 

Aaron went on a camp out with the young men in our ward. It was a fun time and he took Josie who tried to take over Aaron's bed. 

We had a celebration for Brookey who made it through 5-0 reading lessons. Can't believe she is half way done. Way to go Brooke. She works very, very hard. 

Carson got a new cello teacher who we really like. He has private lessons every week and then small group lessons 2 x a month. So far it has been working well. 

Lots and lots of miles run, I have been going up to Round Rock to run with Jeana in the trails around her house. It is so pretty. 

Carson got his wolf in cub scouts! Go Carson! 

Instead of a pinewood derby they did a lego robot battle, it was pretty awesome. 

We spent some time out at our friends, the Larsens and had so much fun. Aaron got to do some shooting and loved it. 

The kids always love it out there, it sure seems like an idyllic life out there. 

Science projects happened. Camilla did hers about apples, of course, her first love. 

Brooke and her friend Legend. 

Brooke loves to help me cook any time she can. 

Carson's science project was a fidget spinner math project. 

Brooke was so happy to see Cadey at the science fair.  

Camilla's project was great, Carson had swim that night but his project turned out great too. 

Phew and that's January, on to February!
