Three-and-a-half Teeth

Autumn is enjoying the backyard. She almost has a fourth tooth. It's the top right one coming in.

Happy 6 months Autumn.. or baby and the leprechaun juice

Autumn had a great time getting her picture taken. So much so, that she wanted to tell a story.

It all started when I was getting my picture taken.

My teddy bear Sam leaned over and gave me what he said was leprechaun juice.
I don't know where he got it from, but it tasted good.


Then I got really giggly.



My mom said I started eating my sock.



Just then an officer stopped by and asked me to take a sobriety test. What? You want me to recite my ABC's?

I was able to pass the test by eating my ABC's. Next time, I will find out what something is before I drink it.

Autumn would like to thank Grammy Goose for providing the St. Patrick's Day decorations.

a little bitty baby shower

I prepared all last week for a baby shower that I gave for my friend. The week before that I made invitations on card stock and colored each one individually. I passed them all out at church and then Autumn and I walked around the neighborhood hand delivering the rest. I regretted that it was under 20 degrees F. Poor Autumn's cheeks got really red.

I made tons of homemade brownies for the brownie ice cream sundaes. We had lime rickys and sliced vegetables with ranch dip. I got to use my fondue pot for the chocolate sauce. My neighbors even let us borrow their folding chairs. The picture above is of the most wonderful women in our ward who came to the shower even though some of them didn't even know my friend. I am so grateful to them and to my dear friend for letting me host the shower.

All girls are princesses

Saturdays are for drives up the canyon

On Saturday we drove up to Beaver Mtn and watched people skiing. It was fun to get out of the house and enjoy the drive up the canyon.

Happy 5 Months Autumn!

Autumn is happy to be five months old. It means she can almost sit up by herself, she can point at things she wants, and she loves to taste everything from paper to flowers. As her proud parents, Jon and I are eagerly anticipating the time when she will sleep through the night. For her 5 month party we are going to go sledding.

Peek-a-boo

Autumn plays peek-a-boo by covering her face with the corner of a blanket. In her version of the game, you are the one that has to remove the blanket from her face. Autumn would like to thank Grammy Goose for the indoor stroller suggestion. Riding around the house is one of her favorite activities. She also likes to sit in it to watch the fish tank.
