Zach and "Mama"?

Zachary still does not say "dada" so he calls Paul "mama", we joke that Zach has two mama's. Whenever Zach starts crying saying, "mama" over and over, Paul and I both look at each other and say, "He talking to you".

cowboy up little zach!

The other day I could hear Zachary upstairs crying. I ran upstairs to find him in my closet trying desperately to put my cowboy boots on, he sat there all excited as I finished pulling the boots up his leg. I couldn't help but take a picture of my proud little cowboy!

Dolly and baby Teddy!

My Mom, Dolly and her new baby Teddy (6 weeks old) stayed at my house for another week after the sisters trip...lucky me! I loved holding Teddy and tried to talk Dolly into leaving him with me. I always love when family comes to visit...our door is always open, so come again soon!

I am so sad that this is the only picture I got of the Sisters trip! I had a blast with all of my sisters(most of them anyway) my mom, cousins, aunts, it honestly was one of our best sisters trips yet! Amy and Jenny, I'll always remember with fondness our night two-steppin' at the Broken Spoke and our 6th street adventure ;)! My sweet husband watched the kids all weekend so I could go Kayaking, tubing in the lake, shopping, out to dinner, practice yoga...what didn't we do? A special thanks to my Aunt Deborah for making this all happen!

Austin Sisters trip

O.K., so I know Halloween is over and it's the middle of November, but I just started this blog page and couldn't resist posting all of our fun pictures from last month. I'm still a little blog illiterate, so bear with me it might be a while before this site looks halfway decent and fully updated. Enjoy!

We love Halloween

Holidays with kids are the best! The month of October is one of our favorite months of the year. The first of October we pull out all our decorations, turn on our favorite Halloween tunes, get some cookies in the oven and get busy. Grant and Eliza love creating their own spooky decorations, Grant made some bats out of construction paper and Eliza made a black cat and pumpkins, we also make ghosts to put on a Halloween tree. We love finding Halloween projects and treats to make. Our favorite thing this year was skeleton cupcakes, the kids had so much fun making them, and I had fun eating them. Our first big event for the month was Grant's school carnival, we all dressed up and had a great time. This year we took advantage of the whole UT theme and had the kids dress up as football players and a cheerleader. The next week we had our ward's Trunk or Treat and got enough candy to last us the rest of the year, and then of course Halloween night, we went trick or treating around the neighborhood and got even more candy. I think we ate candy for about 3 days straight until I finally got smart and hid the candy (I honestly can't remember where I hid it) I'm sure I'll be searching for it soon.

Halloween!

We have a blog!

Can you believe it...we finally have a blog site! I am not the so called "technology savy" kind a gal, but after veiwing everyone else's blog site, I felt almost guilty for not having one. After all, I want to show off my adorable little offspring just like everybody else. I just assumed creating a blog site required being proficient in computer languages like C# or visual basic...obviously I couldn't be more wrong. If I can do this, anyone can!
