Colin!

My Sister and her husband just had their baby! He is sooo cute! Such a good little thing too, never made a peep the whole time we were there! We are so happy to have you in the family Colin!

Sprinkles and Second Halloween Costume

This is what happened while I was writing an email to a friend... I thought the sprinkle container was sealed and thus safe in her little hands... but I learned otherwise :) She was amazed at what she had done! :)



This is Amelia's Second Halloween costume! It was super cute. Her Aunt Annie let her borrow it, and her cousin Ryan would bend over and try to see her face through the petals. It was super cute!

Words

It is so much fun to watch Amelia grow. I wanted to write about some of her "new" things.

Words:
Roomba (irobot vacuum) - Ba ba
Teddy Bear- Te..dy
Ducky-ducky
cheese- chhhhessse
please- ease
Banana- nana
Play (for playgrounds)-pay

She is now pointing at things, and taking you to places to help her with toys and stuff (ie, brought Michael to his laptop, to ask if he would open it for her). She hands you things she knows she can't do herself, like open a tupperwear of cheerios. She can walk on mildly rough terrain now, and is starting to run. At the park she like to follow other kids around, and do whatever they are doing.

Halloween Bee!

This year Amelia was a bee. At our ward party Michael said he was the Bee keeper, I thought that was very cleaver. :)



This was the first time I put the outfit on Amelia, and she examine all the parts... the skirt...



the wings



and the sparkles on the skirt



Amelia got this bear for Halloween from her Aunt and Uncle Helene and Ralph, and she was soo sweet to it.





Amelia went to a little Kid Halloween party that afternoon, she was a little disturbed by all the costumes and would not leave my side for the first hour. But then she had fun and painted pumpkins and played with the other kids.
