February 2026 KK turns 9!

Eden got Student of the month! She's even looking at the camera! Yay!

 

KK wanted mud pie with cake pops for her birthday.

KK wanted to go rock climbing for her birthday party.

Eden cracked me up because she would go further up on this wall without the automatic belay system (not clipped in) than she would on walls with an automatic belay system. 

KK wanted a Jungle animal theme for her party.

I took the two youngest with me to Nathan's cousin's baby shower. KK had a lot of fun with the baby shower games.

There are so many babies on Nathan's side being born this year! Lots of boys!

Nathan's brother (Blake) and wife (Chandra) had a baby girl (Laynie) in January. She might be the only baby girl this year!

3 of Nathan's cousins are having babies this year (2 boys for sure-still waiting to hear about the 3rd)

Nathan's sister (Kaity) and her husband (John) is having a baby boy in Aug.

Nathan's brother (Andy) and his fiancé (Cheyenne) is also having a baby boy in Sept.  

Haha! The Rad techs are putting together a calendar of all the Docs using AI. This is the picture they came up with for Nathan! Nathan's super proud of this picture!

Blakely threw an epic teenager fit. 

Nathan: Wow, that was a good one! Very dramatic!

Me: Well she is taking drama this quarter...

Blakely: You better hope KK never takes drama!

Dyer: I think KK would show the teacher a thing or two.

KK (in a weak voice from the couch because she's sick): The student has become the master!

January 2026

Cousins!

KK's trick with Beau

KK and Blakely had a little too much fun with this...

Having fun with her bangs!

Blair made a tank cake for one of her class projects.

I think she did really well considering this was her first attempt at fondant!

Haha! Dyer's "kid". You can't really see it but he had an egg in that cup kind of next to him. 

He had it so easy! He had one day to keep an egg from cracking...I had a baby doll for a few days that would cry multiple times a day and at random times (in the middle of the night) and you had to hold a key and turn it in place for as long as it took to make the baby happy (10-30 minutes). You had to take it everywhere because it supposedly recorded everything (how long the baby cried, how it was handled, etc.)

Easton's first Zone Conference: Grijalva Zone

Boo! It won't let me upload KK's video! It's too large of a video.

I ended up taking a video of the video and taking out some of the middle parts where KK is waiting for the other girls to "fly".

Dyer completed his Drivers Ed class so he'll be driving now! Should be getting his license at the end of July/ beginning of Aug!
