FUN WITH THE COUSINS

We got to watch my sister in law Chelsey's kids Harley and Noah this past weekend while they went to Spain. It was alot of fun having them over. We had fun going to the mall and Wendys and playing games. Here they are having a crab race. They are such cute kids. While they were over, my other sister in law Brittani came over with her kids and I posted some cute pictures of the cousins.

LOGAN AND MIQUELIN

THE KIDS VEGGING OUT IN FRONT OF THE T.V.

Logan's baby show was on tv and I guess all of the kids found it pretty entertaining.

LOVING THOSE CHEERIOS

We just got a high chair a month or so ago for Logan and she loves it. She loves to get in it because she know she gets to eat, and she loves eating. (I wonder where she gets that from?) Anyway, I don't think there is anything that she won't eat- she loves trying everything. Her new favorite snack is cheerios.

10 MONTHS

Logan is 10 months already- my how time flies. She is in such a cute stage right now and I love how she is showing her personality more and more. She is such a ham lately. She has this thing she does where she scrunches up her nose and and starts breathing through her nose really loud, then when she is done she starts cracking up at herself. The other day Perry was changing her and she had a really messy diaper and he was gagging and Logan was cracking up so hard at him. It made me laugh. She is so fun to take to the store because she always stares at everyone as if to get their attention and then when they give her attention she smiles and waves her hands in the air. It's so funny- she is definitely not afraid of strangers. Anyway, I don't have very much to blog about so I thought I'd post a couple of cute pictures.

JUST A LITTLE BIT EXCITED

OUR LITTLE MONSTER

For Halloween this year I decided to have Logan be a monster because she is in this growling phase and it sounds like a monster. I saw the costume at Babies R Us and knew she had to have it. On Halloween we went to the tri-ward trunk or treat. Perry and I are over the activities for our ward so we had to come up with different booths (games) for the kids. We did a cake walk and I painted a cardboard ghost for them to throw a ball through it's mouth and other stuff like that. It went pretty well except for the cake walk-the kids destroyed some of the papers before it even started. Oh well- what can you do? Next year I will laminate them for sure. Anyway, it turned out pretty good I think. Now we have to come up with what to do for the Christmas party- so if any of you have any good ideas let me know- please. After the trunk or treat we came home and had a ton of trick or treaters come to the door. It was fun to see all the kids dressed up in their cute costumes. I love Halloween, its great. It makes me feel like a kid again. Here are some more pictures.

AARRGH!! DID I SCARE YOU

I think at this point Logan was getting a little sick of pictures.

TUCKERED OUT LITTLE MONSTER

By the time the night was over we had one little tuckered out monster.

MR. AND MRS. NERD

For Halloween this year Perry and I decided to be nerds. I was glad I was able to get Perry to dress up. We make quite a good looking couple I must say.

DO YOU LIKE MY PANTS?

MY NERD PERRY

All in all I think we canned 112 jars- it ended up being alot more than we were expecting.

6 RANDOM FACTS

Okay so I got tagged by Brittani to list 6 random facts about me so here it goes.

1- I am more of a night owl than a morning person. I usually stay up late and sleep in late. Lately Perry has been wanting to go to bed at 10, which is way to early for me. At night I usually like to read or watch tv before bed time, it helps me relax.

2- I love to make hot chocolate (especially the mint kind) and dip buttered toast in it. Perry does not understand why I like this-but it is scrumptious. The trick is to save some of your mix and pour it in the cup right before you dip the bread in it that way you get the chocolaty goodness. You should try it.

3- I don't like to be bored, or stay at home very much, and often times you will find me running, or going to Target, Walmart or the mall just for fun. I have had soo much time on my hands since Logan was born. I had a job before she was born that kept me somewhat busy, but now that I am a stay at home mom I find myself looking for things to do. I guess I better enjoy it because I am sure things will change once we have more kids. I do enjoy having the privelege to stay at home with Logan- she is such a joy and keeps me entertained.

4-I love running (shocker- I know) I love it because it gives me a sense of freedom. It lets me leave all my cares and stress behind, and it makes me feel energized and happy most of the time. I also love competing. That is definitely a big reason I miss college. Now that I am almost 5 years out of college I try to find races to run and stay in shape for.

5- My two favorite treats are icecream (another shocker) and lately I have been on this kick with chips and salsa. Perry's work had a salsa contest and Perry brought some home. Let me tell you New Mexico is known for using green chiles in everything, (even on hamburgers.) All of the mexican food here is super spicy and hot. Anyway the salsa he brought home was soo hot, but I can not stop eating it-even though it makes my eyebrows sweat! I am turning into a crazy New Mexican!!!

6- Since Logan has been born I have been obsessed with baby headbands. I think they are soo cute. I have a whole big bin of them in most every color you can think of. Every time I go to Utah I cannot stop buying them, ask my mom. Maybe this obsession will stop- but I don't think so.
