Little Pumpkins

!!HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!
The whole family... Paps, Yaya, Makayla, Brittney, Christian, David, Hali, Bryar, Fisher, Truman and myself... went to Pack Farms in Farmington, Utah last weekend. The search for our pumpkins was on. We unfortunately missed out on the hayride, we got there a little too early, but we had a blast anyway. Fisher and I ran crazy through the Kidz Hay Maze, then everybody took off through the Pumpkin Patch.
Fisher was so serious as he looked at every single pumpkin he came near, turned them over,
scrutinized every inch, and hefted as many as he could lift. He found three that he approved of, but couldn't chose just one, so we went ahead and brought them all home.
He and Paps found a big green grasshopper, which may have been Fisher's favorite part of the day.
Paps caught it up and put it in Fisher's hand, where it stayed for quite a while. Fisher really like seeing it so closely and feeling it walk on and tickle his hand. When the little guy finally jumped out of Fisher's hand, Paps gave a good and high pitched squeak! That may have been my favorite part of the day!
HAPPY HALLOWEEN

Diaper Dilema

Today Papoo was hanging out with the boys, they LOVE him! While I was in the process of changing Truman's diaper, Fisher needed my help "quick mama", so I let Truman relax on his blanket au natural while I ran to Fisher's aide. Paps decided to help out by finishing the diapering for me. It has been a long time since Paps has had any association with diapers... he put Fisher's (the 2 year old) diaper on Truman (the 6 month old)! Later this evening, Fisher and I had just got back from an evening swim. Fisher was lounging in his towel, getting dry & keeping warm, while I was in the bathroom getting into warm & dry clothes. Again, Paps came to help out! He helped fisher into a diaper so that he could get into his jammies... only he put Fisher (the 2 year old) in Truman's (the 6 month old) diaper!! Fisher stood up and began to pull on the manhood area of his diaper and told Paps ( the 40+ year old) "It's Truman's Diaper"!!! HEHEHEHE!!

!!Thank you Papoo!!

See what happens when grownups leave the room...!


First sugar cookies of the holiday season, a Halloween theme. Fisher, my sweet boy, decorated this orange frosted and sprinkled cookie for me while I was at work. Precious, right!?!



My brother David, knowing my love of trees, decorated this fall tree cookie for me, and the spider for himself. Well done, right!?



And then theres my dad, our
beloved Papoo, who tried to do a 3D candy corn on one cookie. When the frosting candy corn collapsed, he tagged the cookie, as seen here. Then, discouraged, he made some boobies to cheer himself up. Nice, right!?!


Happy Halloween!!

**NOTE: I was wrong about a part of this story.... Apparently David made that candy corn cookie, and it was gonna work, stay standing, until Paps smashed it, out of cold buttheadedness. Thats when David tagged it, and Paps just made the boobies cause that what he does!!**

Uncle Jesse's Late Night Idea




Uncle Jesse came to visit last week. His second night here, he was laying in bed, nearly asleep, and suddenly had an idea to paint dinosaurs on Fisher's bedroom wall! Then he went to sleep.


Next day, He got started! That red Brontosaurus is over 4 feet tall and equally long! Unfortunately, Uncle Jesse's trip was over much too soon, and he didn't get to paint all of the dinos. He drew the
remaining few out and I painted them (not nearly as well as he would have done).


The outcome is great though, and Fisher loves his "new friends". Every day before nap and every evening before bed, he "pets them nice" and tells them goodnight. As soon as he wakes up he checks to make sure that they are still there, and when he sees them says "HI new friends!"


THANK YOU GREAT UNCLE JESSE!!
