October Rewinded...beware it's a loooooong one

October was a little busy for us...These are all the things that I meant to post over the past few weeks but just never got around to.


Emmie's 2nd Birthday!

The Birthday Girl
The poster we made for school - Emmie put all the stickers on herself.

The Elmo Cupcakes

Opening presents with Daddy

Daddy playing dress up with Emmie's new tutu (thank you Marilyn!)

Singing to the birthday girl

Our Trip to the Pumpkin Patch:
Cute right?

Ceri, John and Monson with their pie pumpkin - They asked the lady how many pie pumpkins they needed to make a pumpkin pie the lady answered, "uh, one...that's why they're called pie pumpkins." They felt stupid - but we had a good laugh.

Emmie LOVED the mini pumpkins...just her size!

Emmie is such a good helper!


Halloween 2009:The redneck, and his two blue birds
(I know...no beak...we look like ballerinas...whatever. Emmie was suppose to be a puppy and had the cutest little jumper that our friend let us borrow. She spent the past 2 weeks begging to put it on almost every night but of course when it came down to Halloween time...meltdown city - hence the makeshift outfit...if i had known she was going to be a bird/ballerina/whatever I would have done it right...next year!)

Trick or Treating for the first time - by the last few houses she had gotten the hang of it and would say, "tank ku" after they put the candy in her sack! so cute!

Matt's mullet found it's long lost brother....lookin' good boys!
I've got to hand it to him...the man's got a nice pair of legs! (please don't pay attention to the back ground...it's embarrassing...we're in the middle of rearranging Emmie's room)


Me kicking rear at the penny drop game - thank you Liz and Ben for teaching us!


Matt vs. Dallin - I forget who wins...what and let me know
Some October first's:



First time singing and signing all by her self
(translation: Baby, Baby, Baby signing time)
She used to watch that DVD because she loved watching the other kids now she loves watching it to learn the songs and signs...so. dang. cute!

First time playing in a bouncy thing...Emmie Loved it!

First time petting a snake...She Loved it! the girl has no fear...gigantic slithering animal thing?? bring it on!
First Football Game - She cheered and danced



First pony ride - again...no fear...she LOVED it!


And this is just too cute not to add. Emmie calls Monson "Monty" and is his official pacifier putter-inner - she takes her job very seriously.


And that's THE END of October!

p.s On WEDNESDAY we find out if it's a boy or a girl!!! I'm putting up a poll! vote and see - you only have a few hours!!

Your family is too cute! I posted a little sneak peek on my blog if you want to check it out. They are adorable! :) I had a ton of fun with that shoot!

We sure have some handsome husbands, huh? I loved watching the penny drop game, mostly to hear your mom's laughter in the background...it's very contagious!

Wow, SO much to comment on! Firstly, Matt, wow...those stupid wigs must run in the family because Dave wore his ugly one that's a hat on backwards and long bleached out hair that's grown out a couple of inches. At the trunk or treat I don't know how many people thought I had brought an investigator with me! It's just a little too real, ya know? :)
Love Emmie's tutu! I can't believe she's 2 and you're pregnant with your second! That's so exciting! And I think an excellent name if it's a girl is Carrie...;)
