I Got Them In Purple!

Happy Halloween and Old Navy

Happy Halloween from Super Why and a gigantic bumble bee!

Some things of note in Wesley's life: he's crawling! Also, he sits up from a lying position, is eating all sorts of food, is in size 6 diapers and 12 month clothing, moved to a big boy car seat and weighs 20.8 pounds. :)

These are the first shoes I've bought from Old Navy. They fit like a glove and I think I will go back and get them in every color! So cute.

Pumpkin Walk 2009

Every year Logan has a "Pumpkin Walk" up in a North Logan city park. Various people/groups create pumpkin scenes following the theme for the year. This year it was 'commercials'. Here are a few examples that I thought were clever:

We took Clayton last year and think it's a great family tradition!

We took the shuttle up from a few blocks down to avoid the traffic and also because Clay had never ridden a bus before! (Neither had Wesley, but he didn't really care either way.)

Wesley bundled up in his stroller and the posing behind the Harry Potter cut-out.

Clayton holding his Grandma's hand and then posing in the Where the Wild Things Are cut-out.

Wesley chillin' with the witch and then with his Dad.

Ty, Haylie, Clayton and Tricia with the witch... Tricia had to hold Clay in place for us. (Sorry about cutting off her head - I had to snap a shot real fast!)

AWHC and Goiabada

Last weekend we went to the American West Heritage Center to go to the corn maze. We zipped through the maze and enjoyed all the other activities they offer there. There was a fun little train ride that I didn't get on film and...

Ponies!

Baby Goats!

Jumping off the hay bales!

We decided that Wesley's mascot is Eeyore because his motto is "Thanks for noticing me" because he is the forgotten 3rd grandchild... sad.

A friend told me about a Brazilian store in South Salt Lake called Central do Brasil. I got Goiabada and Acerola juice! Here's a picture of an acerola fruit - it's the little red guy in the leaves. So yummy. Goiabada is a candied guava paste.. so good with cheese.

My Little Guys

I had these done at WalMart yesterday. Thought we got some pretty good shots. Wes is almost 7 months now and eating puffs - yum! Clay is two and I am attempting potty training, but today (the first day) has not gone well. Nothing in the potty yet. Maybe he's not quite ready. Wesley is such a cute chunk. He's a hefty 20 pounds now and almost ready for a bigger car seat. He loves to giggle at Clayton and Owen. I love my boys! (That includes Jer!!)

Clayton's Music History

During the first 9 months of Clayton's life, the only song that calmed him down in the car when he was upset was "Hold Me Tight" from the Across the Universe soundtrack.

He briefly enjoyed "4 Minutes" by Justin Timberlake and Madonna.

Around 6 months ago he became addicted to the song "Counting Sheep" by Collin Raye. He loves the 'baa, baa' part. And also any version of "Rubber Ducky".

He's learned the actions to "Popcorn Popping" in nursery on Sundays and loves to sing this one at bedtime.

His newest obsessions are "Single Ladies" by Beyoncé and also "Jai Ho" by the Pussycat Dolls (from Slumdog Millionaire). I love that he now sings the words to his favorite songs. So cute.

First Sling

Clay took a flying leap into our couch and now has a possible hairline fracture in his wrist. It didn't show up on any X-rays, but the doctor still thought it was possible, so they put him in a sling for a few days.

He's doing all right, considering!

Wes Sits and Clayton Plays

Wesley sits all by himself!

Cute Clayton sleeping with his baby doll that he told me he named "June" (from Little Einsteins).

Clay organized his tool puzzle pieces into cups.

Jumpy Jump with Toodee.

Per Cristin's request: banana and pizza.
