They says its your birthday

Well Happy Birthday!!

(I should really have a more recent picture of you, you know ;) I really like this picture of you 2 though)

What a feeling!

Part of potty training motivation (we had to have a lot of motivation) was that Tally could join a dance class. She was so excited for her first day. (Tuesday)

Still talented

Here is more amazing talent from my gifted daughter.

She of course is calling Grandpa on the "feetie phone" and the "2 feetie phone"

Sweet 16

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DEIDRA!!

(I know your birthday was on the 12th I didn't forget you I just haven't blogged in a month. I'm a slacker!!)

Big Girl Now!

Tally was officially potty trained on Saturday, September 11th! I'm not sure who was more excited. Her or mom and dad! To get her motivated we had her pick out a toy that she really wanted and she got it when she was potty trained. She was given her set of FOUR Princess shoes that day, which is why she is modeling plastic shoes in these pictures. Every time she put on a different Princesses's shoes she was convinced she turned into that Princess. So cute!

GOOD JOB TALLY GIRL!

Lehi and Price

We used Ryan's 6 days off to make trips to see both sides of his family Labor Day weekend. On Thursday we headed to Lehi and stayed for a couple days with his dad. We played at the park down the street from their house and travelled to Juab with my sister to my dad's football game.

Jake's first time in a swing

She thought she was pretty cool driving her Great Grandma (Grandma with the toys) around

I think I might frame this one. I love it.

We drove back from Lehi Saturday night. I was subbing in Primary for the chorister and Ryan was giving the lesson in Young Mens. We left for Price after church to celebrate all the September birthdays. We were there until Tuesday. We forgot to get our camera out until the last day.

Drunk on Rice

Jake had rice for the first time on August 22nd. No matter what we did we just couldn't keep him full! We finally decided to try rice and he LOVED it! He finished his bowl and you could tell he finally full and comfortable like he hadn't been in days. He has rice cereal every morning when he wakes up and every night before he goes to bed!
