Mo wanted to share our exciting news with all of you!



That's right, a baby SISTER!!! She is due July 17th and we are beyond "excited" for this little Miss to join our family. So far the pregnancy has been great, with no real problems (knock on wood). Stay tuned for more updates!

January

Another month has gone by and it seems like they just keep going faster and faster! Lets hope the next 5-6 go by just as fast! We had such a fun month in January with several things to do and celebrate. Here are the highlights!


Happy New Year!!

This year we went out to Kenzie and Alma's house for food and fun. To our surprise all the little kids fell asleep just fine so we adults could have a good time playing games. We got so caught up in everything we forgot about the "countdown" and turned the TV back on just in time to catch it. It was an enjoyable night and a great way to start off 2010. Thanks Kenz for being such a great hostess!

This is Mo's "concentration face"

Forget pots and pans! The little kids got cool spinning light globes and loved them!



Sledding
New Years Day we all went sledding at a park by JC and Beth's house. It was Mo's first experience and he actually really loved it as long as Jason went with him.

Ready to go!

Back up the hill...

And down again!

Do you think this kid loves his Dad?



Jason's 28th Birthday
What an old man! We celebrated with Root Beer Floats at the LeChem's and Mo did his part to assist Jason in blowing out the candles as well as open presents. We also went to a Jazz game but forgot to take any pictures...oops!

Welcome Home Wyatt!!!
On the 5th we welcomed Wyatt back from his mission in Honduras. He had such an amazing experience down there and we are grateful for his example and faithfulness. At the airport was the first time he ever met Mo so we are glad to have him home so these two red heads can become best buds.

The whole Davis clan back together again!


Happy Birthday Diesel!
Jason's little brother Derek celebrated his 13th birthday this month. At his party he got a surprise visit from BYU's Andrew George! All Diesel's buddies were thrilled to get some football knowledge and and autographed picture from him.

More Sledding...Homemade Edition
After that big snowstorm over the weekend, Jason decided to build Mo is very own sledding hill--well make that a sledding mound. He piled all the snow from our driveway up on the lawn and carved out a path to slide down. It looked more like a mini luge run! Either way Mo loved it and it was just his size.

"Hi Momma"


It was so much fun we had to invite Mo's neighborhood buddy Landon to come down and try it as well!

Well that about sums up our month. February should be another good one with Mo's birthday coming up as well as many other exciting things! We will keep you posted!!!

November/December

Well the LeChem family slacked off a bit in November with the blog, but we are back strong again here for December!

November

Maybe the reason why nothing was posted in November is that not much happened. Thanksgiving was great, but we dont have any pictures to prove it. We had lots of family around and it was great to reflect on all the things we have been blessed with this past year.

The great thing we did manage to get a picture of in November was the BYU vs. Utah football game. We got tickets at the last minute from our friends Tawny and Andrew and we were soo excited to go. We bundled Mo up and had a great time watching one of the best BYU games in history! Obviously the highlight was Andrew catching the winning touchdown pass in overtime. We stuck around long enough to get down on the field with him and it was for sure a great thing to be a part of. Hopefully we will be watching Andrew catch touchdown passes in the NFL in 2010!




December

We had so much fun this Christmas with Mo. Whenever you would ask him what he wanted for Christmas he would say "A Christmas Miracle!" It was hilarious to listen to but we couldnt figure out where he heard it for the longest time. Finally we discovered its from an Elmo movie he would watch at his Gram's house (this kid will repeat just about anything he hears!). Then if you asked him what he wanted from Santa he would say "A choo-choo and tracks". Well Santa came through for him and we loved seeing his reaction that morning when he walked out to his train set. No surprise he has spent several hours pushing the trains along and yelling out "Comin' down the track!"

Here are some of the best pictures from Christmas:




Making some cookies to leave out for Santa.




We decided to also leave some Diet Coke out for Santa this year knowing how much he likes it!!!


Mo sneaking a sip!!


Reading a Christmas book with Dad before bed.



The goods!

Here he comes....


What a happy little Toad!




Later Christmas day we went to Jason's parents house. His mom gave each of her grandkids a different band instrument and they made up their very own "Gram Band" Mo got the piano and loved playing it while singing into the microphone!


Mo's other favorite present was from his cousins Ashlen and LoLo. A cowboy hat and a set of toy cowboys and horses. As soon as he put the hat on he turned and said, "Momma, I a cowboy!" Its been pretty hard to pry that hat off his head since.


The next day all the LeChem's went bowling at BYU. Mo had a great time pushing the ball down the lane even though it took forever to make it to the pins! Overall it was a great holiday weekend!







Love that we caught Mo "mid-air" in this shot. He and is 1 inch vertical!!

October

October was a busy month for the LeChem's but we had a lot of fun! Here is what we were up to.

BYU Football Games

We started with a trip down to Las Vegas for the UNLV game. It was a lot of fun with the entire Davis family coming down as well. Mo loved to cheer the Cougars on.


Our friend Andrew George in action. If you ask Mo what Andrew's number is he will happily reply "Eight-Eight"


Tolerating some obnoxious (and drunk) UNLV fans sitting right behind us. This was Mo's reaction.

But he was still cool enough to give them a high-five! Such good sportsmanship.

We also got tickets to the TCU game, but as you can tell by Mo's face it was tough to find anything to cheer about in this game.





Hogle Zoo

Mo's cousin Tucker turned 2 this month and celebrated by taking a trip to the zoo. Mo loves animals and really loved seeing them in person and making all the sounds he practices every single day.





Uncle Derek's Football Games

Jason's little brother Derek had another great year of football and Mo loves being right up close to the action during his games.

Halloween!!

Mo went as a Missionary this year! After about 15 minutes this is the only picture we could get of Mo in front of our house. What a goof!

At Gram's house with the LeChem cousins and their costumes.

Mo and his "companion" Tucker ready to go do some good.



Gettin' the goods!
