Odin

 I'm really bad at updating but I thought I would post about the new addition to our family.  We welcomed Odin on October 8th at 12:48 pm after being induced. The kids were so excited to meet him and I was so excited not to be pregnant anymore. This was by far my hardest pregnancy, I'm just glad it was my last.  We are so happy he came to us healthy and we have enjoyed him so much.

 I never did pregnancy pictures with the others so I thought I would try for a couple since it was my last pregnancy.

 He came out so perfect at 8 lbs. 1 oz.

 

We blessed him on November 12th. Eric gave him a awesome blessing. We had lots of family come and join our celebration!

A week of snow & fun

 Eric had a week off work to play. We started the week off with a camp fire and then headed up the mountain to teach this cute little guy to ride a snowboard. Eric and Riot snowboarded everyday and I joined them on their last day to see how well he had caught on.  He loves it so much and I couldn't believe how fast he would haul down the mountain. 

 Out to Pizza at our favorite place, Pier 49!

Now bring on the sun!

Finally some fun!

 We finally decided to have some fun. A couple weeks ago we took the kids to the monster truck rally in Salt Lake. It was fun and very very loud.  The next weekend we headed to Las Vegas for a couple nights to explore the town with the kids. I remember being there before I had kids and thinking who would bring their kids here. But there was a lot of kid stuff to keep us busy and not to many fluzzies for the kids to look at.  It was nice to get out of the cold and enjoy some warmth. We headed to Hoover Dam on a nice sunny day, Riot even said he missed the cold because it was to warm. Crazy kid.  Then we headed to Saint George to stay a night with my cousin and his family. The kids had a blast playing with cousins.  The last day we headed to our friends house in Richfeild and had lots of fun playing with friends. It was so nice to get away.  That next week Eric and I celebrated our 8 year anniversary and headed to Salt Lake for a night by ourselves. I can't wait for Spring to get here and be able to live again.
