Our NW Trip - Pumpkins

Michael had a "thing" for the pumpkins. Whenever he saw one, he just had to investigate it ... usually by climbing on it. Here is also a picture of Brandon who was carving his pumpkin for the first time!

Before The Trip

While I ran around town preparing for our departure, Jamie stayed at home with Brittany & Michael. When I came home, I found them playing in the new suitcase...Jamie introduced it to them!

Halloween Party

This weekend was our Ward's Halloween party, so Brittany was dressed as a ladybug while Michael was dressed as a bear. They were so cute! Brittany actually kept on the headband for most of the night. Her favorite part of the night was the fishing hole. She thought it was great to hold a fishing pole, throw it over a wall and then "catch" something. She would have stayed at the fishing hole all night if we allowed her! As for Michael, he just crawled around and found his own entertainment (getting into things). All in all, it was a fun night. By the way, Brittany was enthralled with a balloon one of the older kids had at the party. By the end of the night, she was able to get her little hands on it.

Just Cute Pictures

While downloading our pictures, I came across these and thought they were too cute not to post. Brittany loves hats! She keeps playing with Jamie's baseball hats. Here she put one on and then climbed onto her "cycle".

Brittany also loves jackets. Here she put on one and loved looking at herself in the mirror.

The picture with Brittany and Michael in the playroom is when Michael was trying to crawl. She saw he was upset, so she tried to help by pulling on his arms! Of course, he fell onto his stomache, but they both thought it was funny.

They both like to play with the dishwasher. Now, Brittany knows how to open it and they play with the silverware!

Pumpkin Patch

This past weekend while driving down to OC, we stopped at a pumpkin patch and farmer's market. Brittany and Michael had fun looking & touching the pumpkins. However, their favorite item was the hay. They could have just sit on the hay all day long. Here are some pictures from our adventure.

Catching Up!

This is all of us on Jamie's birthday down in OC.

The next picture is of Brittany displaying her climbing abilities. I was loading the dishwasher and I heard her laughing. When I looked around, she was sitting on the it!

It has been a while since we posted, so here are some updates. Michael is now sitting without any help, he holds his own bottle and loves to sit in the high chair (he just received his own today; it was on backorder). First hair cut! Jamie is holding Brittany while she gets her bangs cut. They were always in her eyes which drove us crazy! She was not thrilled with this!

The video is of Michael playing with a balloon from Jamie's birthday; he loves balloons!

Brittany is Walking!

Brittany started walking last week, but I could never capture the moment on film/video. Well, I finally captured her walking. She's still wobbly but she's becoming more adventurous!
