Thanksgiving

Yes, I know I 'm a little late...

11.25.11
We got to spend Thanksgiving in Puyallup with Scott's family this year...

Below: Cameron giving Brandon his typical "love"

the kids made apple turkeys

Grandma shared some of the delicious food with Brandon...

Cameron being his crazy self while enjoying pumpkin pie...

And us girls were crazy enough to brave the crowds Thursday night to check out some Black Friday deals. Unfortunately all of us apparently forgot that we live in the state of Washington and left the house without waterproof jackets or an umbrella (in our defense--it wasn't raining when we left). Either way, we had a great time standing in line in the rain only to realize that once we got inside the store we would have to wait another hour or so in the check-out line, so we opted to ditch out early and come home for some hot chocolate. 

What a great Thanksgiving Weekend!

Random outbursts and a boy that's growing up

So it is 8:06pm, the boys are in their beds and all of a sudden I hear Cameron yell, "Far, Far Away on Judea's Plains, Glory to God, Glory to God."

Gotta love that kid and his random outbursts.

On another note... Matthew gave a talk in Primary today and said the whole thing all by himself without any help.  He's been practicing all week and has even been praying that he would do a good job and not be nervous. Crazy to think he is old enough to do that.

Brandon at 10 months

11.20.2011

Brandon loves to grab your finger, stick it in his mouth and chomp as hard as he can with his two bottom teeth--so be careful!

He is getting pretty good at push ups...

can sit up, but easily falls over...

And prefers his laying on his stomach over his back...

He is by far my easiest baby... smiley and easy going... if I could just keep Cameron from torturing him.
