IDAHOME!

It was so unreal to me driving into Idaho Falls and thinking this is my home again, with my family! We got there Monday night and Tuesday morning we were able to move into our home. My mom watched Ryker the whole day - which he didn't seem to mind at all! Kev's family helped us unpack and unload. So we were able to get mostly unpacked on Tuesday. Having an actual house sure made it easier to unpack, because we had a spot for everything! haha


 I got a piano for $75! I was and still am SO excited! Ryker loves playing it, so I actually haven't been able to play it very much because he just wants to join. But when we first got it, he was pretty funny he would pound on it and then very seriously play one key, then pound all the keys, then play one key. Then when I had the sheet music up, he was pointing at it with one hand and playing with his other. We may just have a pianist on our hands.

I also went to my first garage sale where I found a little lawn mower. The face says it all. 

The first week we visited Lowes quite a bit. Our Basement isn't all the way done, so we were trying to get the electrical done so that we could put the TV down there and have no one get electrified. We - mostly Kev- also spent a week putting up a fence. And it loos pretty dang good! It's so nice to have a fenced backyard!

 He loves yogurt. And in Seattle, whenever we would eat yogurt, we would eat it on the ground...I don't know why. But the second I get the yogurt out he plops down on the ground.

We walk to the Elementary school almost every morning to play....play with the wood chips, put the wood chips on Mozzie, put them in our mouth, put them on the slide...you get it. That is his favorite part. But he is starting to get more excited about the slides and other toys. Mozzie didn't like being left behind, so she started running up to the slides, and going down them with us.

Snapchat still cracks me up and Ryker is into it now and just laughs.




 


He loves playing with the hose. He kept trying to get me with water, so he would drag the hose - behind himself, it would spray him in the back, he would be shocked and run, then we would do it all over again. 

We have loved being closer to family and back in Idaho Falls. We are so grateful for the chance to come back here!


Last Month in Seattle

We enjoyed our last month in Seattle, it was so unreal that we were moving!

 I can finally start doing his hair... kind of, he has such an interesting hairline.


 He wanted his shoe on and I was to lazy to take his clothes off haha

 He absolutely LOVES walking Mozzie
He thinks he is old enough to eat by himself. It takes forever! And if I touch the spoon he has a major meltdown. But I guess he needs to learn.

 We went to the Locks, saw lots of fish and people :)

I love this picture. The second he saw the stairs he went straight for them, with no hesitation as to how tall they were.

 Seattle Temple

Can't see it very well, but Kevin was flying his helicopter. Ryker thought it was pretty cool. Mozzie was terrified!

I had the chance to go to Pike's Market with my friend Danielle. I wish I would have gotten a picture of the two of us. I already miss my weekly outings with her!


We always went to Don's house for Sunday dinners. Ryker loved playing in the water and usually always ended up just in a diaper.

 Packing Fun. Ryker is into everything! Climbs unto everything! He keeps me quite busy!

My mom flew to Seattle to help us drive back to Idaho. So we showed her around some things. We went back to the locks.
He just loves to do what we do, loves to help us push the stroller. Notice the twinner shorts on my boys :)


He loves any kind of animal, insect, ...really anything moving.

Then we showed my mom Gas Works park, to show her the cool view of Seattle.





I'm so glad my mom helped me drive back to IF. There is no way I could have driven my car by myself with Ryker.
