We really enjoy the quiet of January every year after the nuttiness that is December. After celebrating New Year's with the Fitzgerald's (no pictures of THAT one!), we headed up to San Jose to visit with the Sosa's. Mom and Dad went to see "Wicked" in Los Angeles and LOVED it!! Mandi, Michele, and Mom went to see Garth Brooks in L.A., too. And, of course, we ended the month with our big finale....the fire in the kitchen. Wow! I guess we did have a busy month, we just didn't take many pictures!!

Owen lost his two front teeth this month! And on the same day! One tooth was loose and he was working on getting it out. Then Daddy and Owen were wrestling and Daddy bonked Owen's tooth! It was super wiggly then and just came right out. But when Daddy bonked the one tooth, he loosened the other one, too. So a little while later...out it came!

Payton went back to school this month, too. She was happy to see her friends and really happy to see Mrs. Little, her teacher. Payton had fun in San Jose, too. She got to play in Ally's new playroom!

Quinn was pretty much along for the ride this month! He did have to endure a lot of Mommy's camera in his face, though. With the older two kids back in school, it was just Quinn to take the brunt of the flash bulb! It's a shame he's so shy, too!

Enjoy!

 

Our beautiful view from the backyard.

 

Don't you just want to grab those cheeks?! Quinn found a hole in the back fence and discovered a dog he could spy on.

 

YEAH! Waffle was one of Quinn's first words.

Owen Owen loves his Molly-dog!

 

Quinn helping himself to stuff in the fridge. "Mommy, can I have ice cream?!?!?!"

 

Checking out the toys in the toy cabinet. "Ouch! Bonked my head!!"

 

Daddy getting ready to pounce on Payton & Owen. Here he goes!!!

 

Owen's new smile. Apparently Owen had a tough day at school as he fell asleep on the bottom stair.
