With so much going on its seems I can never catch up!

November was fun, Michael & Rochelle's second baby was born, Hunter Kitric Stucki! So cute, so exciting! As soon as we got off work we drove to Kingman to see them! I am sure I was driving Thomas crazy that last day or two before he was born, I text him every hour for an update, which he would say "I don't know I haven't heard anything!" But it worked out!


Then came December came, and Landon had his 5th birthday! Wow its so amazing to watch them grow! When I met Thomas, Landon was 4 months and now he is 5, its great! So we went to his birthday party, and its so fun to watch all the cousins play together, and now that Charly is getting bigger its fun to see her interact with them. Later that month we went to the Vegas Bowl to watch BYU Vs. TCU, it was COLD! Lund, Kathy, Michael, Rochelle, Thomas, Alex, and I were all there, it was fun, as we drove there it was so windy and became increasingly windy as we watched the game. Charly was a trooper she didn't want to be wrapped up she didn't cry. She did enjoy her churro.


Christmas was fun, we stayed at Thomas's parents house on Christmas eve so we could do presents in the morning, and that was a lot of fun. We bought Charly a kitchen and she loved it, BUT Grandma made her a blanket and pillow and that was her FAVORITE, and still is. We went to Mesa to see the Russells & the Gales and do Stucki Christmas Eve program. This year we started doing a journal type of thing. We all have the same topic this time it was Favorite Grandma & Grandpa Stucki memories(Thomas's Grandparents) & Favorite Childhood Christmas memories. Then we make a copy for everyone to keep in their books, it was fun to read eveybodies memories and for the Stucki kids they had a lot of similar memories. All the little ones had a page that has facts like weight, height,age, favorite color, food, etc, and a picture of them! And we are going to try and do this at least 2 a year with different topics!
In January for New Year's eve Charly had a eye infection so we stayed home then she burned her hand & arm on the IRON! AHH what kind of parents are we, I felt so bad it didn't seem to bother her except when we had to re bandage it and then she'd get mad but she just her hand like normal, kids are so resilient! In January my family did their get together, we try and do it in between thanksgiving & Christmas but this year it was busy so we did it afterwards. WE all got together at Susie's apartment and made ham, and all the trimmings and did a gift exchange. January seemed to go so slow mainly because our due date for baby boy Stucki was approaching! The name was still a secret, and we didn't even know yet......

October in a pumpkin shell...haha I am so funny sometimes!

Well first and foremost everyone is great! Healthy and no one in the hospital so that's the best news! So from where i left off last time, in October i went to vision expo with my office, Lake Havasu Family Eye Care , we stayed in Vegas for a few days. It was the first time I left Charly, while I was gone Thomas, Alex, and Charly went to Phoenix to visit the family. And as you can see Charly & Paityn enjoyed the Gales Boy's truck!

For Halloween Charly was a Pirate Arrh, we worked on that with her but she would only do it when we said it and then very quietly. Super cute! We went to Kingman to visit Grandma & Grandpa, we also got to see Paityn as a punk rock ballerina. We went to the trunk or treat, it was really fun to see her get in to it, at first she was a little confused, random people giving her candy in her bag but after a while she started to get very excited.

In October we made a couple of trips to Kingman to visit the family, on one of our trips the guys went golfing. It's a lot of fun to see Paityn & Charly play together and get into trouble. Rochelle, Kathy, and I all went outside to play with the girls the were digging in the dirt, and of course Charly Anne tried to eat it, she is infamous for eating dirt, sand, rocks, and I mean a lot it comes out in her diapers for days, anyways, they also tried to run off. They played on the swing, and Charly stole Rochelle's spot a few times, she is very possessive.
