He really gets around!

The cutest kid ever and now one of the most curious!
He has really learned to get around this month!

Here are some prayer/bedtime humor videos. An overtired baby and a mom & dad who couldn't stop laughing at him. He loves using his mouth to help him pull up.

Here is the curious jailbird trying to break free.


The invincible! Once he sees the camera there is nothing stopping him! I love watching him fall and get back up again.

Go GREEN!!!

I'm cheering, not talking about saving the environment (though we encourage you to be environmentally responsible). Many Wednesday nights since the end of July we have been on the softball field cheering on Austin's EQ (that's Elder's Quorum) softball team who played in the Provo City League. The green comes from the colors of their jersey's, loaned to us by Matt Thompson's work - ESG.
We had a great time with members of our ward cheering for Austin. He had a great time playing 3rd base, playing with his dads old glove, and smacking some good hits! Unfortunately, the only games that they won were forfeits, but there was MAJOR improvement throughout the season. In fact, just today they won they stake tournament against the other wards! We are so proud of them!

We're hoping we get a chance to do it again next year!

Jenny’s Shower

  So I decided my sister-in-law, Jenny, needed a shower. She’s not dirty silly, she is having a baby!!! We are excited to welcome the little tike (yes, a boy) into this world! He is expected some time around October 23, 2009.

Not quite crawling

Well, here you go! Our needing incentives, not quite crawling, happy little critter.

My Biggest Fan

Our stake is putting on the production,

and today I was practicing "Much More" from The Fantasticks for my audition. I quickly found the cutest little eyes peering up at me from underneath the piano. Cadence had crawled over, rolled under the piano, and was staring up at me smiling. When I would stop, he would clap! Talk about making mommy feel good, especially after being out of audition practice.

We definitely picked the right name for him! He LOVES music!! In fact, in his activity center he has some animal buttons. They make a different noise if the more you press them. He has figured out that you have to press the "cow" button 4 times, in order to hear mommy sing "Old McDonald". He watches and dances the whole time. His favorite animal is the "dog" (I think because I make different types of barking sounds). He has also started to experiment with the piano. What a fun little musician we soon will have. For now though, he is just my biggest fan.

Puzzle-mania!

After doing 2 puzzles on vacation, Austin decided he wanted to do another. While up at bear lake, we bought one, but didn't really get to much of it until we got home. We chose this puzzle because it matches Cadences room and Austin was set on displaying after we had finished. He also has a puzzle made by the same company that he and Kory together, hanging up at his office.
