Feb 1 update

Well, as fast as December went by so has January! We started with a quiet New Years after our company left. Our kids started back to school and everything kicked in full tilt. All three started gym class this month as well as Emily started swimming again. Once again my schedule is quite full.
We've had a rather quiet month with the exception of company and the birth of yet another nephew! Ian Patrick Landrigan was born on Jan. 15th to Deana and Jay! Mom and Dad arrived from Dubai just in time (two days earlier) to help out with Levi while Deana was in the hospital. All in good timing and all are doing well. He's a precious little guy.
We enjoyed the time we had with Mom and Dad. Dad wasn't here as long as he took off back to PV earlier than Mom. We did get out skating a few times with him and Evan was more than happy to have Dad on he ice! My Aunt and Uncle from SK visited as well in the time Mom and Dad were here. They were on their way down to CA and made a quick stop here after Ian was born. It was a short but sweet visit.
After Dad left Mom was here for another 5 days. WE took her to the Denver Aquarium as well as to Celestial Seasonings for a tour of the factory. We both enjoyed it...even though I've been before there's always something to learn!
This month we finally got out skiing with the kids...FINALLY! It was a great time and are hoping to get out again this weekend. They had a blast and did great! We also got to the mountains to look at an igloo Ehren's co-workers were building. The kids did some playing in it and built their own "fort" as well. Ehren helped with a layer of building.
Not much else going on at this point. We are ready for parent teacher interviews this week and then in three weeks we're heading to Puerto Vallarta for our annual visit. :-)
