Porter's Friends

Porter met some new friends in 2009. I guess he was just destined to meet them because their parents are our friends. The funny thing is, they are all cute older women.

This is Porter and Jill. They were in an older post also. Jill is the daughter of Job's best friend growing up. They live in Ohio.

Here is Porter and Zuki. Zuki is the daughter of one of Job's mission companions. They live in Idaho.

This is Porter and Bella. Bella is the daughter of some friends of ours from Cedar City.

If I missed some new friends, i apologize. These were the pictures I could find.

Porter Playing

Porter likes to play with all sorts of things. He is getting so big now; he pulls himself up and scoots everywhere (getting ready to crawl). The first two pictures are of Porter and his box of toys. You lay the box on its side and then Porter crawls in and throws everything inside. One night I stuck him inside of the box to see what he would do. He just and played with the box and his toys.


Here he is playing with a shelf box. He loves boxes. I guess he guess he got that trait from his mommy because all I wanted for my 10th birthday was a big box.

Here he is crawling under his saucer and under the chair by the computer. He likes going under things, the only problem, he can go under but he can't get back out.

Christmas in Manteca

The whole family were able to be together for about a day and a half. We decided to take some family pictures while we were together because it seems we won't get back together for a couple of years. Here are the grandparents and their grandkids.
Christmas morning. We tried so hard to have everyone awake for presents but Porter and his cousin Brooklyn decided to fall asleep right before. It was okay though because the older grandkids were awake and happy.
We got together with some friends and Grandpa Dahle surprised us with a clown. It was so cute to watch the kids interact with her.

Cute pictures of all the grandkids.

Cousins

Porter and I are at my parents' house and are able to visit with all my siblings and their kids. Here are some cute pictures of all the kids.



Enjoy Daddy. Can't wait to see you in a couple of days. I miss you.

Lots of Fun

For Thanksgiving my parents and two of my sisters came to Riverside and we went up to the mountains to stay. One night there was this really big storm: thunder, lightening, and hail. It was right over us and the only person that slept through it was little Porter. We woke up to a few inches of snow and so I just had to get a picture of Porter in it. Thanks Christina for our great family pictures. They turned out wonderful.

This is Porter and Jill. Jill is the daughter of Job's best friend growing up and they came down for the thanksgiving holiday. While they were in town they came over for dinner and to play. It was so cute watching the two of them together. She is 14 months old.

This is Porter's new favorite thing: the army crawl. He is so good at it. He does it every where and is starting to get into everything. It is pretty amazing to see my 6 month old scooting all over. He went to his doctor's appointment and weighs 17 pounds 6 oz and is 27 3/4 inches tall. He is getting his first tooth as well. It's sharp so beware.

Here is Porter with his cousin Marley. Porter and Marley love each other so much. Marley makes silly faces (like the one in the picture) and sounds and Porter just starts to laugh. The try and "box it out" as well. They are so cute together. Marley will get on the floor and play with him as well.

On the 6th Job's brothers and the families went to the Newport Beach temple. It is a new monthly tradition to teach the grandkids the importance of the temple. While we were there we sang Christmas songs. One of Job's nieces wanted to sing her favorite Christmas song (a song she learned in primary) but no one knew what the words were. Instead of singing a different song, little Jordyn stood up from where she was sitting and started to sing her song out loud, for all to hear. When she finished her song she then said "does everybody know it now". This first picture is of Job's brother and his youngest daughter looking at the nativity. The next is of our little family.

We went to our ward Christmas party tonight and Porter was able to sit on Santa's lap. Surprisingly Porter didn't cry. I think it was the big white beard and the fact that we kept saying his name to get him to look at the camera.
