October...so far!


For the two or three of you that check my blog here is a little update. So far we have filled our fall days up with a lot of potty training, a little canning, a few visitors, and a lot of snot. I am happy to report that my London Pearl is successfully OUT of diapers...YAY! I am also excited to say that I learned how to can peaches and salsa this fall. I figured that I mine as well try it, since I had all the equipment necessary to do the canning, and a couple of great enrichment(oops relief society meetings) where they taught us how to do it. I never thought that I would be quite that domestic, but now that I have done it I must say that I will continue to do it! Sadly, both of my girls have been sick with colds, but are now finally getting better. Poor little Brea takes way too long to get over little sicknesses. I hope her immune system builds up over time and she doesn't catch every little thing and stay sick forever.


We also had a great conference weekend. It is great living in Utah when its conference weekend, because we get lots of fun visitors. Here a few pictures of our family and our visitors. (I must apologize to my great friend Angelica who was also here for a little visit, but for some reason I didn't get any pictures of her. You can go to the previous post to see a picture of her and her boyfriend Matt! Sorry Gel! Thanks for coming!







Grandpa Tony and Grandma Joyce came for Tony's 40th mission reunion, a wedding, and of course to see their two granddaughter's in Utah.





While Joyce was here I had to put her to work making my new jeans longer. London was a BIG help to her while she was doing this. It was cute seeing London want to help grandma. She would wait until there was a long string that she could pull out. She may become the sewer in the family, because I sure am not! I can sew buttons on...



My friend Jess came by while she was in town. It was fun seeing her and Steven and cutie Gigi.

Can you say. "BATH TIME!"

I know you are thinking what did she feed them for dinner? So GROSS! I thought I would try them out. Neither of the girls cared for them too much! (can't say I blame them!)


We will soon have pictures of our trip to AZ for Greg's wedding! Can't wait!

I love all your pictures so much! And probably their are none of me because I was a terrible friend and left without even saying goodbye! I hope I can talk with you before Greg's wedding if not, I hope you have a blast. And if you think about, please send him my best!! Also, you look so hot in your pics :)

I'm so jealous that London is potty trained. I started with Chase but he wasn't ready. Paige was actually peeing in the potty more than Chase, but it is a ton of work and I'm not that patient, so I quit already and will try again in a month or so. I love seeing the pictures of your family, you look so good. We could have some awesome playdate if you were around here.
