Wildlife.

i made this post forever ago and just had it saved as a draft. so here it is published. i haven't blogged forever because our old computer is a dinosaur and takes FOREVER to do anything. so we got a new one but josh takes it to work everyday. hopefully i will be able to get alot of updating done soon.

The other day we got home and there was 5 deer in our yard. We have alot of yard, but we are still in the middle of the city. I have no idea how they made their way over. We thought it was pretty cool though.

"what is she doing up there?"

Open the door and she's gone.

I can't keep up with this one.

Syd Kid

she can tie her shoes.

.

she can ride a bike with NO training wheels!

and she IS the best big sister.

I LOVE FALL!!

just not the clean up.

but we made the best of it. the girls had a blast helping.

there was even more bags then this. and this was only the first clean up. the second time i used the leaf blower. much easier.

this is the view from our back yard.

It's Halloween Time

Sydney's school parade. Her and her good buddy Maddie. They are connected at the hip.

I dressed Ellie up too. She ran after "nene" and tried to finish the parade with her. She loves her big sis so much.

I couldn't stop taking pictures of this little pumpkin

The beautiful 'Bella" as a vampire...she wouldn't be anything else. At first she just wanted to be a vampire. Then she decided she was Bella. Next year she said she is going to be the regular Bella. I guess we are out of the princess phase.

We feasted and trick-or-treated with the Wood's up in Sugarhouse. Amazing food, good company, and LOTS of candy. It was an awesome Halloween.

she had a death grip on her pumpkin all night. she was not gonna share her candy.

She figured out what candy was really quick. Now if she sees anyone eating it she will scream til you share.

RIP Syd.

one year old. two birthday parties.

birthday in palm springs with the fam.

loves her new baby

wants her new baby

ellie's cake, that me and josh ate. hey, i'm the reason she had her birthday. don't i deserve it. actually we didn't get a chance to have her eat it, in a high chair and it was to good to let it go to waste so we just planned on having her eat her own cake on her actual birthday.

OCTOBER 2nd. Ellie's first birthday.

first a nap with dad. ( i could not get her to sleep for the life of me)

she woke up really happy though.

and a little lunch with the fam.
that night we had a little party at my sister, jessica's house.
she did a lot better opening presents this time around.

"these are mine, sydney"

still no high chair but we had to let her do it. she just kept licking it because she wasn't to sure about it. she ended up loving it though.

it's been a crazy year but really fun and we are so glad she was apart of it.
