September

Time sure is flying!!!  There is so much going on, I can hardly think straight…  But I am grateful for my amazing family!!!  Ready for "a few" pictures?  ;)

 It's kind of hard to see, but Rebecca likes to stick her arm out of the crib while she sleeps.  :)  Sometimes she even wraps her hand under the mattress!

 She has been working on sitting up by herself, and she's getting stronger every day!!!

 She loves to tell crazy stories! ;)

Cole got to help Grandpa do a little painting!  To keep her from getting paint on her school clothes, we dressed her in an old shirt and some giant wool socks (to go over her boots).  :)

Beware!!!  ;)

 Both of our girls are growing up too fast!!!  At Rebecca's 4-month check up, she was in the 90th percentile for height!

Howdy, cowgirl!!!  :)

I like my toes!

 "Fun" at the State Fair (can you see how thrilled she is?).  ;)

Ryan and Nicole sure enjoyed the rides! :)

My surprise visitor enjoying a meal… EWWW!

 Rebecca LOVES her jumper…she is in it all the time!  :)

First day of 3rd grade!!!

This is how I sleep at church!

We took a fun little trip to Ogden to go through the temple open house.  We also took a short drive up the canyon, and we went to a fun restaurant while we were in town.  :)

 Not only was this restaurant charming, but the food was fabulous!

Ryan improvised by making a handkerchief out of Rebecca's burp cloth. ;)

Sound asleep in her new stroller. :)

Just like Daddy, right?! 

Was that enough of a picture overload to make up for not posting very often?  ;)

Other happenings this month:

• My cat, Silly, finally passed away… :(  She was almost 20 years old.
• We decided that we need to move closer to Ryan's work asap…but it will take us at least a couple months to work out all of the details and find renters to take over our lease here.
• Rebecca said "Dada" for the first time. :)  And she's just about ready to start eating solids!
• I got called as Activity Days Leader in our ward -- Nicole is super excited about that!  (And I still get to teach in Relief Society once a month!)
• Ryan is figuring out how to do his new calling on a scouting committee. :)
