Last night was Timpview's last basketball game. It's so bitter sweet to see Chloe finish her senior year. I was really reluctant to coach her team this year, but I'm really glad I did, if for no other reason than being able to share the cheer world with Chloe.

Monet was desperately trying to get Chloe's attention, but she was so far away, she couldn't hear.

She kept trying, running all around, yelling, "Chloe!!!"

Finally Lisa, the advisor came and got her so Monet could watch Chloe up close.

Monet even got to do a little cheering herself.

The yell leaders love Monet. It's so funny. They always talk about her. And Monet knows them all by name.

I'm so proud of Chloe for all of her cheer accomplishments. I cannot believe what an amazing cheerleader she has become!

Monet loves this 'cupcake making' app on my phone. I saw her making this delicious cupcake and I asked if it was for me and she said, "oh no mom, this is for dad. This is not for you. You would NOT like this one."

She made me this one:

She already knows me so well. ha ha.

Saturday afternoon, me and Grant took Monet to the Gateway kids museum. She was loving it, especially the play kitchen.

Afterwards we met up with friends and had dinner. Monet adores Dylan. They're so cute together.

A few days ago, out of the blue, Monet said to me,

"mom I need a pony tail so my hair isn't so wild."...

So the best I can do is this little side braid. She loves it and requests it every time she wakes up from her nap.

Happy Valentines Day!

We had a wonderful day with a fancy lunch and a delicious dinner and lots and lots of doorbell surprises!

Last night was Chloe's last home basketball game. Try to hold back the tears. I can't believe she is all grown up. Poor Monet has a little stomach bug, but I made her go. I couldn't miss Chloe's last half time. She slept on my lap the whole time.

Call me a terrible mother... but a pretty good sister :)

The Senior dance was super cute.

Chloe being recognized on the court.

I strangely feel like she's my own daughter and I'm asking myself, how did time go by so quickly!!

I'm so glad her sophomore year she randomly decided to be a cheerleader rather than a soccer player! It's made her high school life a lot more exciting for all of us!

Here are some photo's from the last few weeks of little miss M.

We might have a binky problem.

Super Bowl Sunday, taking Tangled for a walk with Chloe.

Helping Grant set up for his church class.

We love going to Chloe's basketball games. Monet gets so excited to watch her half times!

It's been the greatest, warmest, January/February! I've hardly had to wear my coat.

(Sorry Riley I know my happiness is your pain!)

I have had a lot of cheer practice lately, so it was nice to have a few fun outings.

Grant and I went to dinner and shopping with his parents and brother, who were visiting.

We also went skiing with Riley, which was a total blast, as always.

January 30th Riley turned the big 30! So we had a party! We started out at PF Changs.

He's always so sweet to help with Monet when we're out to eat. He is always taking her on little walks or doing things like feeding her marshmallows with chopsticks. He's great with her. And she loves him.

We then went to Provo Beach for Hoop Shoot and riding the carousel.

Lindsay and Monet had a little dance party while we opened gifts and had cake.

Happy Birthday Riley!!

...

Last weekend, Grant and I were in Salt Lake, so Riley took Monet to a daddy-daughter princess party. Monet was in heaven. She got to meet all the princesses, have a dance party, even ride in Cinderellas horse carriage. Not a day goes by that I don't hear, "Mom I want to go to Riley's princess party right now!"

Monet is loving her ballet class. They just started Cinderella last week.

She loves putting on the costumes!
