HAPPY BIRTHDAY

So I know this is a little late but HAPPY BIRTHDAY SCOTT! last Tuesday November 18th was Scotts big day! He has now been alive for 31 years. (That sounds better than saying he is 31 YEARS OLD!!!)

You would think we never feed her?

I know I always post about Emily but she consumes most no all of my day. Emily has been going through this stage of biting lately. I know its normal but enough is enough! She has bit me, Scott, the ear off her bear, the other day we were at Walmart and she bit a whole through a bag of bread so we had to buy it and today I thought that she was just looking out the window until I turned around and she had bit the window seal and had drywall in her mouth. What am I to do? She is a little stinker!!!

New baby...?

So I better let you know that this is NOT and announcement that we are having a baby!! We have finally bought a new car so to us our new car is like a new baby. Exciting, new, fun and just plane great!! Thats how you feel about a new baby right...? I guess all except the poopy diapers, crying, through up, no sleep etc.. We have been a one car family for almost a year now. We sold Scotts car and never bought a new one so we have been sharing. It hasn't been all that bad except some times I felt like I was in high school sharing a car with my brother again and calliong my mom for rides home. You all know what that was like! Well those times are gone so thanks everyone for the rides and all your simpathy! We are now a 2 car family YEA! I also wanted to let everyone know that I have the best handiest husband ever. Scott spent the night cutting and putting up shelves so we could park both cars in the garage. He did such an AWESOME job I had to show off the work he had done. Our next project is finishing our basement I wish it was going to be as easy as putting up shelves!!

Emily NO NO...

This was totally gross! I was once again doing the dishes wow I do those alot!!! It seems that Emily knows that I'm a little preoccupied when I'm doing the dishes she thinks that she can get into anything. The sad thing is this time Scott was home and we both thought that the other person had her. When I didn't hear her with Scott I thought to my self I better see what mess she has gotten into and I was right she had pulled all the toilet paper off the roll and was just swishing her hands in the toilet. Sick!! I hate it period when she is any wear near the bathroom and this time she was up to her neck in it. I almost didn't pick her up. She went straight to the tub!! We are more careful with keeping the door closed. Emily had a grand time though!!

This year we decided for Christmas we would be adventurous and go and cut down our own christmas tree. In order to do that we had to get a tag and that ment we had to go stand in line at Soldier Hollow. We left out house at 4:45 AM and got there at 5:30 AM. We thought that Emily would sleep the whole time but she didn't so Scott took the first shift of waiting in line with all the other hundreds of crazy people out in the cold. We watched the wiggles and ate snack and stayed worm. It was great! I soon felt bab for Scott so we bundled up at went out. Emily was not thrilled at first mostly because she hated wearing her hat but when she realized that it was cold she just stopped pulling at it. Emily did great out in the cold she actually fell asleep! I couldn't believe it but she was so warm and cozy she was actually snoring. Scott tried to complain he was cold but I wasn't bying it..he was holding Emily who kept him worm. Nice try Scott. We finally got our tags at 8:00 Am. We waited in line for 3 hours and then buying the tags and picking them up took 3 min. We will see if it was all worth it after we get our tree. I just hope Scott doesn't pee on his glove while we are cutting it down!! You people know what I'm talking about...Em, Kim Mom and Dad ha ha ha! All in all it was great fun and a good adventure.

Ok So I know that were now into the second week of November and I still yet to post pictures from October. I was worried that this would happen...I would get busy and this blogging thing would go to the bottom of my list of things to do and it has. Tonight I have finally found a quiet time to update everything. Emily is in bed and Scott is playing basketball and I'm all alone watching my favorite Channel (FOOD NETWORK and drinking a diet coke:) it is a great night!! Any ways. These pictures are all the fun things and fun people that we hung out with during the month of October. I loved every min. of this month Halloween is my favorite Holliday. I didn't however decorate like I wanted because my dear sweet husband doesn't understand why this would be anyones favorite holliday so my halloween side didn't come out to much but little does he know what I have planned for next year!!


On Halloween we had a ward trunk or treat! As you can see Emily wanted the whole bowl. Thanks Michelle for sharing!!

Our sweet little Emily was a littl Fary princess. She loved her little dress well mostly eating the beads off it so it didn't stay on long but she looked so cute!!



On Halloween we went to Gardner Village and went trick or treating and looked at all the witches. We went with our cousin Blake and aunt Erin, Grandma Marn, Grandma and Granandpa Senior and our friend Melanie and her granddaughter Kate. Emily had her first sucker with out any ones help. She loved it but I wish we would have thought twice before I gave it to her it was such a mess!!

One night we (I) carved pimpkins with Emily. It was fun but once again a mess! Emily loved all the pumpkin guts. She also loved eating it untik she tasted it. This kept happening over and over again. You would think that she would figure it out that she didn't like it the first time. Silly baby!! Oh and Scott didn't participate his pumpkin is still on out pourch not carved.


The day after Halloween Emily didn't know what to do. All the sudden the candy was put away and she was determined to find it. I was doing dishes and turned around and she had snuck into the pantry and had found the candy. She was trying to be all quiet and not let me know what she was doing but when she figured out she couldn't get the lid off she started yelling and hitting the jar hoping it would some how come out. Poor little baby....NOT!

Testing..

So this is just a test post. I put together all of our pictures from October and then when I pushed publish it didn't work. This has happened twice so before it happened a third time I thought that I would do something small and if it didn't work I hadn't wasted as much time. Cross your fingers!!

Happy Halloween

So a few weeks ago my family had their annual Halloween party. We have been having this party for years and is highly looked forward to. Everyone starts planning their costumes a few months before the party, we have a big dinner, games and of course a trip to the pumpkin patch. This year Scott and I went as scare crows and Emily went as a little crow. We didn't win the costume contest but we did last year when we were Mickey and Minny mouse. I cant wait till next year!!

The whole family minus my sister and her kids

Kris and Jacee wone the costume contest this year!

THANKS!!

Thank you everyone for laundry tips it has been a successful laundry week!! Thank goodness we were about to run around naked :)

HELP!!!!

This is for all you laundry doers out there. I have a problem of getting stains out of Emily's clothes. It seams like I'm always doing laundry and redoing laundry because the stains wouldn't come out. Or I will for get and put them in the dryer and the stains wont come out. I feel like I'm always buying new clothes. These are the products I use does anyone else have a better suggestions???

She is all grown up

As I have stated before I work at a Dentist office 2 days a week. During that time Emily is baby sat by various people (Thank you everyone that helps!!) Any ways on Thursday I work from 1 to 8. I arranged for a baby sitter and then Scott would pick Emily up after he gets off of work at 5. This time he wanted me to have the baby sitter drop Emily off at his work an then he was going to go to his moms house till I got off. I thought no problem...right? I ended up not getting off that night till 10:00 WHY CANT PEOPLE HAVE EMERGENCY ROOT CANALS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE AFTERNOON OR BETTER YET THE MORNING!!!! Any ways we finished up and I got home and Scott told me to go say good night to Emily I did and came back down and he said did you say good night and I said yes he said go say good night again so i walked up stares and looked at her and then looked at her closer and she had to little flowers in her ears. Scott had taken Emily to the mall while I was at work and got her ears pierced!! I was shocked. We had talked about doing it for maybe a min. and then the subject was never brought up again. He said I wanted to surprise you all I could say was.......I'm SURPRISED!!!! This week I'm not letting her stay with her dad while I'm at work late I'm making him come in and get his teeth cleaned so I can keep my eye on him!!!:) I love you Scott you all ways make me laugh and smile just like you promised!!!

Yucky, Gross..

Tonight at dinner we found out that Emily didn't like what she was eating. I gave her a spoon full and she moved forward and the spoon went right into her eye. She was then more mad that it got in her eye than she was about eating it. Before I could get a rag she rubbed her eyes and this was the ending result.

Happy Birthday to Us!!!

I know this is a little late but as of October 1st Kris my twin brother and bestest friend are 25!! Its crazy. It has been a great ride! kris is the best brother ever. He has been my best friend through everything and will always be. I love you Kris!!

The Birthday celebration started off with Lunch with my mom and a visit to My Grandparents house.

We had dinner with my family at my house and then the best part PRESENTS!!

It was a great day I loved sharing it with you Kris!!

The Wizard of...Emily???

Emily has made me laugh again! The other day I was doing some laundry and Emily was in our room just playing so I carried a load to the washer and came back and I I couldn't see Emily but I could hear her. I came around the side of the bed and all I could see was two little feet sticking out. She was of course stuck under our bed. I'm not sure how she got under there because there isn't much room down there in the first place. After a little crying I managed to pull her out and see why she was under the bed. She was trying to get a golf ball out. she is a pretty determined baby!!!!! Seeing her legs sticking out from under the bed in her striped Jamie's it reminded me of the Wizard of OZ when the house fell on the wicked witch :) Well after I got her out she was a little dirty so into the tub she went and then it was time for a bottle. As you can see she was a little pooped out from the mornings events.
