Updates, Pictures and Videos

Well Mr. Jayden has decided to stand. He is quite proud of himself and pulls up on everything. The other day while I was on hold with the Dr. office he decided to do it without holding on to anything for several seconds. I am sure walking is just around the corner. He is a speed demon when it comes to crawling. He has a funny way crawling. He will cruise on his hands and knees and every once in a while he will use his feet to push himself faster.

I love watching and listening to these two play. As Jayden gets older they are able to do so much more. It breaks my heart to watch how lonely Alex is sometimes. He will stand on his play center and try to talk to the neighbor kids. They are older and of course want nothing to do with a 3 year old. but soon Jayden will be out there with him. Wrestling and punching each other. I can't wait! oh yeah on an update on Alex he gets to start attending Primary this Sunday! They start taking them a month ahead to singing time so they can adjust better come January. Too cool for school!

I have joined a FHE packet exchange group. This group has really helped us start doing FHE regularly. This week the lesson was on Thanksgiving. We are doing the Twelve days of thanksgiving. Each day we "pluck" one of turkey's feathers. On one side it tells us what we are thankful for and on the other it tells us an activity to do that relates to that thing we are thankful for. This is Alex making one of Daddy's favorite treat. Muddy Buddies.

This is Alex being thankful for Hands. We were suppose to finger paint, but we don't have any finger paint so we made some homemade finger paint with Pudding and food coloring.
Yum

Jayden loves to bounce. We borrowed this from Aunt Deedra which saves our arms from aching. "Watch out he spits"




Anything you can do I can do better!

Happy Birthday!

Happy Birthday Mom and Jordan. Hope you guys have a great day!!

I Voted!

We are watching channel seven news and we decide that we better get down there and vote before it gets too crowded. Michelle says "does my hair look OK" Stillman says "to go vote, yes it looks fine" So we head down to vote and while I am voting a bright light comes on and I hear the news channel seven gal start doing her broadcast. We turn around and sure enough we are on T.V. We then get lots of phone calls telling us that they can see us on t.v. We took full advantage and showed off our cute little boy. Our other cute little boy was sitting in the stroller. very tired.
update: we just got to watch the replay on 24 7 and Alex was on TV as well.

Harvest Fun

Halloween Party!

Well our halloween party went off without a hitch. The weather was perfect. We didn't even get the projected rain. We had a delicious dinner of Soup Salad and Weiner Wraps. We played Bobbing for Donuts, and had a pinata. It was great fun. We then took the kids Trick or Treating. Before halloween I had discussed with Alex safty rules for trick or treating. It was all in vain as he entered every house that had a cute puppy. It was hard to get him out of the houses as the hord of kids that were blocking the doors. At one house even the men got a little treat. I will leave that to your imagination. you would have thought we were trick or treating a hugh Heffners house. Jayden slept through his first Halloween, but woke up after every one left and was even happy enough to try on his costume to take a picture with his parents and check out his goodie bag. Good thing I reused Alex's old costume. We then went to Deedra's house and watched Wait Till Dark. It was great ending to a spooky night! Hope everyone had a safe Halloween!
