We had such a blessed year; Kyle & I celebrated 6 years of marriage, we found out we were expecting baby #3, bought a mini van, Finley turned 3 in June with a fun Rainbow Art Party and Rowynn turned 2 with an awesome Teddy Bear Picnic party in September and on October 1, our third child and only boy, Emerson Kyle was born weighing a whopping 8 lbs 14 oz!
We camped out with our friends the Sraders and rejoiced when they brought home their son, T. James & T are such awesome kiddos! They cooked many meals for us while I was big and preggo and generally pampered us. I look forward to pampering them as they are expecting #3 this year. And I can't wait until T's adoption is finalized! We had many play dates, enjoyed many fun times at the water park, went back to Sandy Lake Amusement park with my parents, went on a mini vacation to east Texas, and attended our annual family reunion. Both of my in-laws turned 60 and are a continued blessing in our lives.
Finley started going to Awanas and started dance lessons...and she performed in her first recital. Rowynn got her first hair cut, and Emerson smiled, laughed and rolled over for the first time. Finley learned to ride a bike, learned her letter sounds, how to tell imaginative stories, some simple math, and Rowynn learned some of her letters, her colors, fun songs, and begin talking up a storm...the girls and I had fun with our "homeschooling!" The girls got obsessed with princesses and castles and have fallen in love with audio books. They have enjoyed cooking and taking care of baby brother.
Kyle went on a out-of-state business conference, went to see Pentatonix in concert and got a raise. We enjoyed a snow, made many crafts, went to a concert at church, had family pictures made, and we took the kiddos to the zoo for the first time with Kyle's parents.
What a blessed year!!
