We love you Great Grandma!

I love you GG! You lived a wonderful life and left a wonderful posterity!! I know that you were really to go see Great Grandpa a long time ago, and your day finally came! We will miss you and I know I will be with you again (and Great Grandpa) Thank you for the great example that you were to me(and to my children)! They loved when you came to visit especially my Sarah, she always would ask for GG tell you came back. I really thought that before you passed on that I would have a daughter named after you, well I guess that Gordon and her (and Heavenly Father) had different plans! But now you are with her up there, please teach her the things you would have forgotten to teach her here; up there! I love you!

Gordon is 9 months Old, Can you believe it!

Gordon is getting so big! He is now 20 lbs and continuing to eat and grow all the time! He is all over and standing now, with support! He has a total of 5 teeth! And is starting to sleep better that those are in!

He continues to be a happy boy!

Jonathan Birthday

(I deleted this picture on accident!)

Jonathan was soooo excited for his 5th Birthday and it finally came! Jonathan is starting to get into Spider man and he requested a spider man cake! Daddy made him a pancakes for breakfast and Papa and Grammy came and brought his first present!

Jonathan just loves it!

Then we went of to a North to have a party with his cousins! (We missed those that couldn't make it) He had a blast!

We also played laser tag! That was the one thing that Jonathan wanted to for sure do!

Jonathan finally got a booster, well it has an attachment! (aways from 40 lbs)

That was the one thing that Jonathan wanted for his birthday, a bike with a dingy on it! He was very excited! He is doing better and better on it!

It was a big day, after his party we went over to Grammy's and watched the BYU game, and then opened some more presents and then went to the ward Halloween party! Then when we got back we sang Happy Birthday as a family. The next day was Sunday and we were at Grammy's and Papa's for dinner and after Jonathan asked that we sing Happy Birthday to the Birthday boy!

Our Birthday Boy!

Fall leaves

In the middle of October we went up the Canyon to see the fall colors! It was so pretty, but so cold (and we were not prepared). We didn't stay very long, but we enjoyed our short time out of the van! We even saw a deer on the way back down!

A new Way

Sarah has recently wanted me to start taking the runner stroller on walks to Papa's or where ever we go so that she can sit in there too! Well, Jonathan has learned how to get all three of them in there!

Jonathan wanted me to take pictures of him kissing Gordon!
Sarah thought that she would kiss Jonathan then! :)

Sensory Input!

I have been trying to work on giving whatever sensory input I can to Sarah to help her work through her delays! Well, I read a book that helped me with some ideas. This was one of them. Both Sarah and Jonathan loves it!

Super excited!

Jonathan is super excited about turning 5!!! The day after the corn maze he woke up asking if it was his birthday! I replied no not yet, but he knows that it goes the corn maze/pumpkin patch, his birthday, and then Halloween! Two days in a row he asked, so I thought that we should do a count down! He loves it! Everyday he asks Heavenly Father me hurry up the count down so that it can be his Birthday! He is so excited to be 5!!

Family Night!

Last week we were going to go up the Canyon and see the fall colors, but sadly is was raining all day!! But we made the most of it and played pick up sticks, watched a movie and had Carmel popcorn (I grew up making it- everyone had to stir for 5 minutes each)! I guess this was Dave's first time having me make it for him! Everyone was a fan! They loved it!!

My Cute Kids!

Gordon is exploring everywhere these days!
We were going over to Grammy and Papa's for the priesthood session to eat and do pedicures! Sarah was sure excited! (she asked me to take a picture of her)

The Corn Maze!

On September 30th we went to the Corn Maze, Jonathan was very excited about going! We went around when it opened so that Dave could come for a little bit before he had to go to work! It was so much fun and there is SO much to do! It was way hot, but we brought lots of water! We were there till after 4pm the kids could have stayed longer, but I was done!

Sarah wasn't sure about this at the start of the day, but by the end she loved it. All by herself again and again!

He didn't want to look at me, he was more interested in the straw!

We saw some friends, and Sarah wanted to take a picture with Aubrey and Brooke!
