Finally! He's Here!

This is the bus he came in on. There were two of them and they were honking as they turned the corner. It felt like we were waiting forever.

Riley looked right at us and didn't see us, so Adam had to chase him down.

It was so good to see him, but we were ready to get home and warm. It was about 3:30 by time we got home. Riley is still a little off with his sleep, but we're slowly getting used to having him here. The kids follow him everywhere and want to climb and wrestle and play. He looks pretty good, hu! (elli's picture was blurry and didn't work out)

Getting Ready for Dad

This is the sign we made for Riley. There's a long fence along the road where everyone hangs up their welcome banners. Too bad it fell off before Riley could see it. I think the fabric ripped in the corners from the wind.

I woke up the kids about 1 o'clock in the morning. Here we are waiting for the buses. It was cold and Elli and I were getting pretty grumpy.

Sunday

The Primary President took these pictures a few Sundays ago for the Primary bulletin board. They turned out really well, so she sent them to me. Good thing I did their hair that day!

Who's Kids Are These?

I couldn't believe it when I saw it either! Good thing I have proof! They CAN be nice!

It's just me and Amy again since Adam and Elli went back to school. She plays and watches her show. We shop and visit friends. So nice.

Aquarium with Grandma

My mom came to visit for Christmas and one of the things we did was go to the Aquarium. Getting her to get in a picture is like pulling teeth, but she agreed to this one. Amy was CRANKY and wouldn't cooperate. She ran away. We had such a nice time having my mom here. I forgot how lonely it is until she left.
