Rupert got baptized this year

 

It's been a good several months since posting anything here.  Honesty this year was packed and just flew by.  So many high highs, and low lows too.  I wanted to return with a highlight - Rupert's baptism! 

It was just him getting baptized from the stake at that time so we had the whole program to ourselves.  We had Rupert make a lot of the decisions, like who would give talks and who would be the witnesses.

Honesty I don't remember all that but I do know Rupert asked me to give the talk on baptism.  I literally wrote it that morning so it was rather thrown together but I thought it was sweet he wanted his mama to talk.

Rupert is such a happy boy.  He has such a light and a lot of energy.  He's easy to love.

Everyone is growing so fast.  Elliot is taller than Andrew now, Avery is looking more and more like the teenager she is, Zara has a big heart and is a big helper, and Beatrix is one of a kind and so smart.

So grateful to Andrew for baptizing our kids.  Only one more of our kids to go!

Rupert lost another tooth

 


Rupert lost his 2nd tooth!  This was taken the day before.  He came to tell me his bottom tooth could bend in towards his tongue, and I saw a little blood so it was only a matter of time before the whole tooth popped out!


This one is so fun with the game piece in his mouth.  He gets lonely during nap time since he's half day.  Sometimes he'll watch a movie during naps which helps but he asks me to play games a lot.  Rupert really is a lot of fun to be around and has an amazing imagination like Elliot.  Well, all the kids have an amazing imagination, Elliot started the tradition. :)


Look at that smile!  Rupert lost his tooth playing in Ruth's backyard yesterday afternoon.  I love to see his excitement.  Rupert really has the biggest and best smile!  He is so fun at this age.  It'll be hard when he goes to school all day next year.  It's been amazing seeing how much he has learned since being at school in person.  Distance learning is so hard at this age.



I just want to bottle up 6 year old Rupert and keep it forever.  You can't be mad looking at that face!
