January

Well, it must be January.  We have stayed busy but nothing really exciting to post about so I will share with you a few of our daily adventures.

First, each day involves at least one game (usually multiple games) of basketball with Daddy and one safari ride on the lion.

Our week wouldn't be complete without a BYU Basketball game or two- thanks Gma & Gpa for the Game Day outfits!

McKay is such a BYU fan that he likes to sleep through most of the games.  Here he is half asleep catching the end with his dad just to make sure they won.

There is always something to climb over- whether it be a chair, the car seat, laundry basket...you name it and McKay will find a way over it. 

McKay has decided it is his responsibility to daily clean out my cupboards and drawers.  (Notice the clean out- he doesn't bother to put any of it back in!)

Well, that about sums up our happenings...for now.

Happy New Year

We had one last hurrah before closing out the Holiday season and went up to my family’s cabin in Provo Canyon.  There was a lot of snow and McKay loved being outside.  We relaxed, ate a lot, and played games.  It was nice to spend time with my sister and her family one last time before they headed back to Indiana.

For New Years Eve we held the Annual Wright Pool Championship and by pure luck- I took second place!  It was fun and Matt is threatening to beat me next year.

McKay is crawling and getting into everything- literally!   Here is one of his latest discoveries.

 

Does anyone know a good way to print blog pages?  I want to print mine but don’t know how- let me know if you have any suggestions…

Christmas!

We enjoyed a wonderful Christmas break.  We were sad Matt had to go back to work but it is nice to get back into a routine.  We celebrated Christmas with my family on Christmas Eve and then spent Christmas Day with Matt's family.  It was nice to relax and enjoy spending time with our families.  Santa went all out this year and Matt and I got a laptop- it is fun!  Matt also gave me an Apple Cookie Jar which I am very excited to fill up after my Christmas sugar high goes down.  McKay got all sorts of toys, books, and clothes, but he was mostly interested in the wrapping paper and boxes...  McKay is crawling now and NEVER stops moving- and I mean never.  He squirms around even when he sleeps.  Here are some pictures from our Christmas- notice how I never got a picture with McKay looking at the camera and smiling...

"Mom, these boxes and wrapping paper are fun!"

I made my two of my nieces these tutus for Christmas. They turned out so cute so I have to brag-

We hope you all enjoyed a Merry Christmas too and wish you a Happy New Year!
