I'm just going to do one big massive post for all of October... I know... its a bit annoying... but its the only way I'm going to get caught up at this point!
Here goes.
Ice Cream date night with mommy while daddy is at Preisthood session.
Ice Cream date night with mommy while daddy is at Preisthood session.
Celebrating 3 years old!
He loves to dance and sing... loves to watch Bubble Guppies and Peppa Pig.
Popcorn chicken, sandwiches and bananas are his favorite food.
His vocabulary is exploding and he's starting to form sentences.
Can count to 10 (most of the time 13), know all his colors and sings the alphabet song.
His Daddy is his best friend in the whole world... but is also a total mama's boy too.
We are so grateful for the miracle and blessing that he is.
When we got to Bo's this morning she had a little birthday party for Buddy. Cutest thing ever! Look at the cake she made... we absolutely love Bo!
I came in one morning and he had put on my sunglasses while he was eating breakfast. I thought it was so funny. Love this kid!!
One of the last nights as my little little boy... Things are changing so fast and pretty soon he's going to be a big boy... the binky went away today... potty training starts next week. He's just growing up way too fast :(
Lunch date with my BYU bff Jeanette to catch up and meet her new daughter A. Jeanette and her family have waited a looong time for this sweet little girl. I love adoption and the gift of a new family.
We're so glad when daddy comes home... glad as we can be!
After a long week daddy finally comes home on Friday nights... its definitely become our favorite day of the week!
He likes to put the ball basket on his head and walk around the room saying "Mommy, I a Robot!"
cutest robot ever!
Taking a spin on his new birthday trike... my favorite part (excluding the cute three year old!) is the bell and tassels. We haven't totally figured out the trike yet... mostly we got backwards... but pretty soon he'll have it mastered and be asking for a car.
Volunteering at the Katybug 5k run... a charity run for a little girl with leukemia.
The event was put together by Nicole and Tracy and I worked the event... they are such great women. It was so fun to work with them again at this event.
Evening walks at Waterloo park.. this is my favorite time of year at Waterloo... the weather has cooled and the sun streams through the trees in the evenings... its absolutely beautiful!
The last couple of weeks when he gets out of the tub he covers up in the towel and says in a growling voice "I a monster!"
Halloween crafting with Angie... it was such a fun day!
We keep saying that we're going to get together to craft on a regular basis... but the last time we crafted together was last October... at least we're consistent!
Celebrating National Taco day with $1 tacos with our favorite neighbors at Fuzzy Taco shop.
We snuggled up on hospital bed and watched Transformers. Finally got released about 3am when he could keep fluids down.
we're not really ER kind of people... so I think we've definitely had our share of trips for the next couple of years.

A little bit of Autumn in our back yard (even if it doesn't feel like Fall!)
So we got the flu. Really really bad. Couldn't keep anything down for for over thirteen hours. Including water. I called the nurse to find out what I should do since I couldn't keep water down and she said to get myself to the hospital and get monitored and get an IV. So I did.
My sweet neighbor Nicole drove me and stayed with me until Joey surprised me by showing up. We got released about 1am and then he headed back to Ft. Worth bright and early the next morning.

Every little boy needs a superhero cape.
a few days after I was in the hospital it was Buddy's turn... couldn't keep anything down for a couple of days... the after hours nurse made me take him to the ER to be monitored for dehydration.

Every Wednesday we meet up with our church friends for Park day.
A Halloween pillow and cup of Halloween treats from Bo. Such a fun thoughtful gift!

Our cute little friend Zoe's Peter Pan birthday party... complete with pirate/peter pan/tinkerbell costumes, dinner and a private showing of the Peter Pan movie... a fun night for all little pirates... arg!
Witches Lunch 2011
Good food, friends and a little Halloween fun with seven of my cutest witch friends!
On our way to Utah to spend Halloween with family... we were supposed to leave yesterday... but Buddy threw up all night and because of blizzards in Denver (our connection) we were able to change our tickets for free. Tender mercies.
p.s. This is the first time we've ever flown in to Provo... I'm hooked!!
Hot, witchy sisters!
we didn't coordinate our costumes beforehand ... but I love that we matched!
Thanks to Emma and family for letting Buddy and I crash their church Halloween party!
Happy Birthday to my sweet mom who taught me a love of God, family, freedom and all things Halloween.
Little man's first time trick or treating door to door... he would get to the door, say "Happy Halloween" and then walk away without getting any candy.... at the end of the night he only ended up with four pieces of candy for his efforts. Looks like we need to work on our trick or treating skills for next year!
