Very Busy Last few Months!!!

The last few months have just flown by. We have kept busy though. September was a particularly eventful month for us with Daniel's blessing and Hannah's third Birthday. It was a great weekend for us. We decided that we would have Hannah's Birthday party the same weekend as the blessing because we would have so much family here and we thought it would be great for Hannah to have family from both sides there. I am very grateful for all those who helped me with games and activities for the party. The kids had a blast with bubbles and homemade go fish. We have tons of pictures, more than we could possibly upload to the blog, so if you click here for the baby blessing, here for Hannah's Birthday, here for milestone pictures of both kids, and here for Halloween Pictures you can see all of the pictures, and we are putting a few here on the blog as well.

Here are some pictures of the baby blessing.

Here are some pictures from Hannah's Birthday.

Daniel has been growing like a weed. At his two month check-up he weighed in at 14 lbs 3 oz. He was 24 inches tall as well. In the 90-95th percentile for both categories. He is already half of Hannah's weight and 2/3 of her height. He should be a very big boy. Here are some pictures of Daniel over the last few months as well.

So, last night was Halloween. We have had a lot of fun with Halloween this year. Our Stake had their annual carnival/trunk-or-treat the Saturday before Halloween. They always have a "photo booth" set-up so everyone can get their picture taken in costume. Last year we only got a picture of Hannah, but since we were all dressed to the same theme this year, we did a family picture. We were going for the whole 50's theme. I think we pulled it off pretty well. For Halloween we went to the Ward carnival/party for Grandma B's Ward. It wasn't as big as our Stake one, but there was more food included. It was fun. Hannah had a good time. Then we helped pass out candy at Grandma B's. We didn't go out trick-or-treating this year. We aren't quite sure how to handle that with Hannah. She can't eat the candy, but if she gets it she will want to. Hopefully we will figure something out before next year. Hannah had a great time helping Grandpa pass out candy. Tim decided to lay down next to the Elvis tombstone in the yard. He scared a few people who weren't quite sure if he was real or fake. Everyone seemed to have a lot of fun. Here are some pictures of the yard and all the pumpkins.

So, Tim out-did himself this year with the pumpkins. We had four pumpkins this year. Hannah decided that she wanted to have a doggy carved on her pumpkin (we found a Disney kit) so Tim"helped" her do the doggy. Tim decided to do a dragon. He saw a face that was similar to the one that he did, and used it as the basis to start the dragon. He then added the wings himself. It turned out pretty good, only took about 4 hours to do. I was going to carve the Tigger, but with it getting late Friday night, and being really busy Saturday morning trying to get ready Tim ended up carving the Tigger too. That one only took about 2.5-3 hours.

Tell us what you think.
