Family bonding!

This morning was such a great moment, that I just had to share with the class! One of the great things about Zach working with APEX is that his schedule is so flexible. This morning we didn't have anything really important going on, and we were up late last night meeting with some people for zach's work. So we just kinda stayed in bed for a while and watched re-runs while allie pocked, jumped, and rubbed  us. (She of course has to be right there where all the other people are). After an hour or so she calmed down and just let me rub her "little" belly and shoulders while she watched tv with us. It felt so great when we all laughed at Allie and hugged each other. (mushy I know, but you know how great and few those moments are!) Right now we just laugh at Allie all the time and her weirdness! She is pretty much naked 8 hours of the day, since she has decided it is fun to take off her clothes and that making mom and dad re-dress her is just funny! We love our Allie!

It's a Girl!

So it was clear... It's a Girl! We are a little sad, since we were hoping for a boy this time, but So excited to have another sweet girl in our family! We feel so blessed to have another healthy child on the way!

Ward Harvest picnic

We had a fun Harvest picnic on sat. combined with the other ward in Coolidge. We had a great Thanksgiving dinner, games for the kids, and football for the men! (Zach has been whining now for a few days because he is so sore from being out of shape!) Allie participated in a little running race with other two and three yr. olds. After they blew the whistle she was found still standing at the starting line just standing there looking around! The second time I told her when to start and she ran with another girl and had so much fun, especially when they gave her a sticker! It was weird having my baby participate in a game with other kids!

Happy Halloween!

Okay, well actually we didn't get to go trick-or-treating because Zach and I got the stomach flu the night before Halloween. Luckily, I took pictures a few days before for our church party. Allie had so much fun and she looked so cute in her scarecrow costume! I had so much fun making it too! 

Preschool Halloween party

Preschool Party 2008

Everyone had a great time at our preschool party! 

We played a lot of fun games, and ate healthy and sweet treats!

They loved the "witches brew" that I made! 

Allie and Kendis were deathly afraid of the masks, however. I think that a 

few other kids were a little as well, so unfortunately the masks had to stay off for a while!
