Hamilton Happenings......: January 2024

Side by side with Kyrie(2 months) and Nyla(4.5 months)

Naomi 4 months-----Nyla 4 months

I think she looks like both kids!

And Mia is too old to have pictures on this computer, so its way too much energy to compare!:)

School b-ball is in full swing and Kyrie has been waiting years to play! He did some editing here!

Just another night at a bball game for Nyla!

We literally passed her down the row for these people to hold her! And she fell asleep in her arms during the game!

Kyrie's Camas Select team cheering on the high school teams!

Love her big brown eyes!

Building time!

Really into grabbing at things now!

Nyla's birth announcement we sent with our Christmas card!

Christmas card 2023!

Naomi lost her second took! So thankful for our resident tooth fairy! Guess Dad has a new responsibility for the youngest two kids! ;)

Loving the jean jacket from Sittee and Auntie Eileen!:)

Another cold walk in the PNW!

Bruins start the season 9-2 end of December!!

2-0 in conference and in first place in the conference!

Naomi trying out Mia's heatless curlers!

Still in 1st place after the Atlanta tourney, beginning of January 3-0 in conference!

Baking together for the GFU team!

Kyrie gets to do stats on the bench!

Kyrie loves being apart of the starting lineup!

11-2 The Bruins best start since the 1990-1991 season!

Kaady family dinner! Aunt Cheryl

Cousin Ryan

I guess this is what the teenagers do when at a family dinner!

Cousins-Kyrie and Jonah!

Love watching her on the monitor!

Chillin' like a villian!

Game day!!

Love her hair like this!

Our Christmas gift from Naomi!

"Dear Mom & Dad, Merry Christmas. I love you. you are my Christmas. Happy Holidays!"

We love our hot cocoa in this house!

Nyla wearing her "Snow adorable" shirt in the midst of all the ice we had!

First school game of the season!

Got the W vs Pacific!

Nyla praying for a win!

Love how excited Naomi is for Nyla rolling over!

Can she roll over??

She did it! Roll from tummy to back!

She has so much fun rolling over!

This girl cracks me up at bath time!

Tummy time!

B-ball buddies!

Making the fam a pazookie!

Movie night!

Pazookie time!

First ponytail! :)

The snow came to Prune Hill but we had so much wind it didn't accumulate much here!

Family b-ball game!

Family b-ball!

We may be a bit obsessed with basketball as a family!

Gotta capture all of Nyla's first big rolls!!:) She actually rolled for the first time the one day I was subbing for the month! Sittee got to see it! Then we made her do it over and over to capture videos! ;)

Harlow loves Naomi! She basically doesn't leave her side at every game!

Pony Girl! This is for you Uncle David!

Nay and her Top Chef creations!

Nannying kiddos having story time with Kyrie!

For Mia's Intro to Foods course she had to plan, purchase and make a dinner for our family! She chose to make chicken fried rice!

She had to use 2 different cutting techniques and 2 different cooking techniques.

The meal was so yummy! I hope she does this more often!

Mia did such a great job!! And got an A!!

Game night!

Kyrie wanted to make his own recipe, too! He made bacon/cheese/ranch tater tots!

They were so good!

Naomi created a fort to hang in!

Naomi and Kyrie traveled with the team today to Willamette for the game!

Naomi loved sitting on the bench!

Naomi and Tre doing their special handshake!

The rest of the fam cheering on the Bruins!

Love that they stand like this for timeouts! Nay was so excited to be apart of the timeouts, too!

Unfortunately this was the start of the downturn for the Bruins! We were tied and ended up losing this game after we committed a foul with basically no seconds left on the clock. Willamette made 1 of 2 free throws to win 78-77. It took me a long time to get over this one!

So excited to see Broadway's Lion King! One of Kyrie and Naomi's Christmas gifts!

Sittee's scarf matched the backdrop!

Naomi's 1st Broadway show! She loved it!

The cast, animals, music and sets were all amazing! Such a fabulous show!!

When the Nesland's garage freezer goes out, you get an impromptu dinner invite! Love that we live so close and can do this even with busy lives!

Nyla proudly wearing her National Museum of African American History and Culture onesie passed down from cousins Miles and Lucy!

Chunk!

Talking away!

These 3 photos are just funny to me! She's just chillin'!

Love my Fox!
Thank you, Lucy!

This is so boring!:)

Nyla loving story time with her big sis!

Naomi reading to Nyla!

Nyla becomes a musical instrument!

Nyla likes hearing her voice! And so do we!

Naomi gets in on the action!

Dancing on Daddy's lap!

Ok he would freak out if he knew I posted this(Or maybe he wouldn't:)), but I had to document his muscles and 6 pack! He has been putting in work at the gym!

Happy birthday to me! Maco surprised me with a treadmill! I thought we were driving to his mom's house to help her with something the morning of my bday, but he drove me to Dicks!

Yay! My first ever new treadmill! :)

My free birthday freebies!

Maco picked out a perfect outfit for Nyla in honor of my bday!

Naomi and her vlogging! It is so obvious that she has a teenage older sister! Mia didn't start this stuff until she was at least 10!!

Kyrie gets the win vs Covington for my birthday!

Baby headbands are for big kids, too!

Love to hear our baby girl talking!

Quick trip up to Tacoma for the UPS vs GFU b-ball game! Got to stay the night with the Inversos!

The Miller and the Inverso families both came to the game! The Millers' first time meeting Nyla!

JJ & Aly got to meet Nyla! Collins & Nyla are 6 months apart!

PLU roommate kiddos! We win out on the number of kids now! ;)

Betsy & Tharen--PLU roommates and friends since 1998!! So thankful for them!

Basketball always brings all the kids together!

They haven't seen each other in so long, but as long as they have a basketball it's all good!

Camas Select tourney!

Up 20 in first few minutes of game, so lots of good passing before taking a shot!

FYI... I post lots of b-ball videos for Kyrie to have record of on here! I mean lots!!!:)

Pass, cut and basket!

3 pointer

Kyrie and his BFF, Bryson! Love that they are playing on the same team this year! Kyrie and B met when Maco coached their select team in 3rd grade!

This face just makes me laugh!

First time driving through the drive through! I take pictures of every first! I know!

Kyrie playing against Shahala and his Camas Select buddy, Chris! Skyridge battled back from being down double digits and nearly won the game, losing by just 2. Kyrie made 8-9 free throws towards the end of the game and had a game high of 31 points! But it just wasn't enough!

Kyrie with the steal!

Kyrie gets fouled on a 3 with just a few seconds to go and down 5. He makes the first 2 free throws, misses the third, but got the put back basket for a 4 point play!

Auntie gets one of Kyrie's 3's on video! "That's my boy!" she says! Just clarifying that wasn't me!:)

Love her after bath hair!

This girl loves her thumb! I love this outfit passed down from Lucy!

Those cheeks!!!!

What a small world! While growing up, our family was very close with the Honda family! I played soccer with Hillary, our moms were best friends, and we went on many family vacations to Sunriver. Turns out Kyrie's Skyridge coach is now Ashley Honda's husband! So crazy!
