Cousins

One of the main reasons we decided to move back to Utah was so that our kids could grow up knowing their cousins.  What a great move!  Ryker and Ruby have awesome cousins and I'm sure they'll grow up being great friends.


Sofia Elise Partridge was born last Tuesday, December 9th.  She and Ruby are only 2 months apart in age.  I'm so happy that Ruby will have a cousin so close in age to go through life with.  You'd never guess by looking at them that they are so close in age.  As Josh put it, "Ruby looks like a monster who wants to eat little Sofia!".  Yes...my girl does enjoy her food. :)

One of the best things about having cousins is having access to their toys.  Ryker found this "baby" at Hanna's house and he immediately became very attached to it.  This is a picture of me trying to take his baby away so he can get in the bath.


Madi is a great helper.  She loves to entertain Ryker for me.  Here they are doing pudding finger painting a few weeks back.
 
Seriously...how often do you get a picture this good?!  All three looking at the camera and smiling?  It's a small miracle.  Ryker loved going to the zoo with Madi and Carter.
