It's finally warm! Thank goodness!

This is the Little Mater Tatem got for Christmas! He loves it but until now he's only been able to ride it in the basement! Here's some footage of our first outdoors adventure!

 

 

Getting Big

All of the children around this house are getting WAY too big! They are so much fun, but they just keep growing! Emerson has two teeth now, and Tatem is finally starting talk a little bit more so it's helped out a lot! Here are some fun pictures!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 



Happy Easter

Hi, I'm so busy blogging for the Elders and Sisters in the family, I never update my own blog!

Things are going well for this little Ricks family, we're just doing the same old same old.

Tanner was gone for 2 weeks in March for his annual training for the National Guard, he was only in Harriman, but it felt like he was SO FAR away and that he would NEVER be back home! We really missed him! My kiddos are getting SO big and I keep telling them to stop growing because it makes me sad to think that this phase will be over so soon.

Tatem started speech therapy last week and sadly, it didn't go well. He got hysterical and cried his heart out and he is so embarrassed he can't talk. It really breaks my heart and I just wish I could take this trial away from him. He's only 2 and I wish life could just be easy for someone that little. I am just starting to change my prayers from asking Heavenly Father to help him talk, to comforting him and helping to lift the burdon, he'll learn at his own pace. He's very smart, and makes me laugh all of the time. He's my little buddy and I feel VERY lucky and blessed to be his momma. He brings a light to our home no one else could.

Emerson is a big blessing herself. We love her SO MUCH! She is my baby rolling pin, and instead of crawling where she wants to go, she just rolls there. She loves playing with cords, which is dangerous, but it's her one true love. So Daddy provides supervised cord time which is pretty cute. She is 7 months old and so big. It is a lot of fun to watch my blue eyed angel grow.

Other than that, not much is happening in the Ricks home, we're just happy where we are and feel blessed to have so much fun together!
