This is what happens when I leave Tyler alone for a few minutes. Yes, he is naked and he has eaten most of the brownies.



Someone gave Tyler a sport coat. He's looking pretty handsome on his way to church!



I was making sure his gloves and boots still fit and he didn't want to take them off.

5 Months Old!

Sara is 5 months old! It seems like she's lost some hair on the sides and she has a nice bald spot in the back, but her hair in the front goes past her eyebrows! She's been eating solid food for a few weeks now and she's getting better at using a spoon. It's so much fun to hear her giggle and talk! I love getting her out of her crib because she has a huge smile when she sees me coming to get her. One of her latest tricks is rolling over in her crib at night and getting stuck on her stomach. Then she'll cry until we flip her back over. Today was the first time I saw her do a complete circle and roll all the way over. Go Sara!

On Sunday the 2nd, Paul and I had to drive separately to church. Paul and Tyler left a few minutes before Sara and I did. I was excited because we were going to be on time for church! Sara was all buckled in her car seat and I was doing Sharing Time in Primary that day and I was all ready for it. After I put Sara in the car, I reached for my keys...and realized that they were in the diaper bag that Paul had taken with him! I was pretty sure we had a spare key somewhere so I started looking all over the house and all I found was a key to the car that Paul had taken. So I started calling people, hoping that they hadn't left for church yet and would tell Paul to come pick us up. No luck, everyone was gone. Paul called me five minutes before I was supposed to teach wondering where I was. I said, "you have my keys!!" He felt bad about it and came and gave me my keys. Sharing time ended up going okay because I had lots of time to look over my lesson while I waited for Paul.

Not Such a Good Day

Today was not such a good day for Tyler.

He tripped and kicked Sara in the head.
He dumped a box of cereal on the floor.
He put his hands in his dirty diaper and then grabbed his stuffed animals. (I have had multiple nightmares about this).
He sat on our cat.

However, there were some good things.

He pulled out the Book of Mormon reader and was looking at the pictures.
He was really good when we ran errands today.
He helped me make muffins.

Halloween

Here are some pictures from Halloween. Tyler was a basketball player, Sara was a pumpkin, Paul was a redneck and I didn't dress up. I think Paul is pretty cute, but not so much on Halloween...

The Park

Tyler, Sara and I went to a park with some friends on Tuesday. Tyler was having a lot of fun until I heard him crying. By the time I got over to him, his mouth, hands and shirt had blood all over! He was also covered in bark chips so he must have fallen and bit his lip hard. I had left my diaper bag in the car because I didn't think I would need it so I took him over to the car. He was so mad!! He thought I was trying to make him leave the park. Wow. Once I got him cleaned up he was off and running again. This is the best picture I could get of his lip - he wasn't very excited about having to sit still for a picture.

Rolling Over

Sara has been rolling around for a little while but today was the first time I caught her rolling over!





We went with some friends to pick pumpkins last week. It was a beautiful day! When we went last year it was kind of miserable. I thought I had forgot my camera, but I found it when I was going through my diaper bag once we got home :( Luckily, my friend brought hers. Tyler loved pointing out all of the "punkins". He also enjoyed throwing the smaller ones when I wasn't looking... There was a petting zoo and Tyler thought the camel was pretty neat. Sara wasn't so happy to be there, but once she fell asleep she was fine.

I was trying to get some pictures of Sara in her cute dress but Tyler wanted in on the action too.




Here's Tyler riding around on the "cycle" (motorcycle) aka the mop. He was very nice and gave his bear a ride.





We went to a church Halloween party last week. Since Tyler is pretty much obsessed with basketball (because he watched lots of highlights with Paul) we put him in a basketball uniform, but it's huge on him! He would have to stop and pull his shorts up just so he could walk. We'll see how Halloween goes...
