a chicken that won't hold still for a picture (and a smartie in her mouth):

Punkin Patch, Petting Zoo, & Spaghetti.

Tenley and her friend Miss Lilly took their moms to the Pumpkin Patch and Petting Zoo! Look how tiny the baby pigmy goats are! Several pictures down, you'll see Tenley's "Popeye" face. Occassionally she'll decide to talk out of the side of her mouth, and sounds like a pirate or Popeye. It is hilarious! She has also recently figured out how to snort. She will run through the house smiling, giggling, and snorting in between! She is a funny little thing, and always in a world of her own!

CHiCKEN, and "proof."

She got called a BOY a lot on Halloween, because she was a CHICKEN and not a little princess or fairy. :) But when I found this costume for $10 I couldn't resist, it just fit her quirky little personality so perfect! Although she looks very somber in this picture, she was actually a little goof-brain whenever we'd put her costume on her. She knew it was something funny and different. Anyway, Halloween was lots of fun this year! More pictures to come.. if I ever get to it. =)

my dad asked to show him "proof" that he has a new grand-baby on the way. he is trying to "double his grand-kids by 2010!" so... here you go, dad. =) 18.5 week bump, in all its glory! and this little jammer is having a good time in there! i've been feeling lots of movement in the last few days! girl, or boy? take your guess! we find out on the 19th.

Wahoo! The weather is changing!

I am so excited for Fall! And the upcoming holidays. Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas! Tenley's going to be a little white chicken for Halloween. She looks hilariously cute in her costume! And when I tried it on her, she LOVED it and just kept running around smiling, and doing goofy hand gestures. She is a funny girl! Can't wait for Thanksgiving.. several of my siblings are coming up to Idaho to spend it with us, and I am so excited! Hope, hope, hoping Chad 'n Ashley are able to come, that would make it even betta! And Christmas.. the music, the baking (lots of new recipes I'm excited to bake & share), the lights & trees! Ahhh, I can't wait! The weather is changing. I don't know why, but more than ever I am enjoying breathing in the new crisp Fall air. Idaho is so pretty in the fall! The leaves really do change to multiple colors, and it is beautiful! I can't wait to dig out my boots, and recreate fun cold weather outfits. :)

We never really got to all of our summer house/yard projects, but now that the weather is changing, we are loving it & feeling so motivated! Scott cleaned our carpet, organized the garage, and is planning to power-wash our fence this weekend. I...(*ahem* wasted time but enjoyed reading New Moon this week), and have since started on a few projects (deep cleaning & reorganizing closets mostly). I am going to share my project list, for my reference only! It's a good motivator for me to work on & finish things.

-Paint over living room walls
-Hall bathroom (eventually tear out vinyl, lay tile, re-do floor boards)
-Tackle the spare bedroom. AHH!
-Go through my clothes and shoes again
-Go through Scott's clothes!
-DI run or yard sale
-Box up T's clothes that don't fit
-The list will grow...

No pictures this post. I'm just not feelin' it. :)

The Life of a One Year Old:

Eat Fig Newton..

Watch cartoons..

Eat a popsicle..
Climb on the couch & play..

(frequently involves unfolding mom's laundry.)
Eat steak fries..
Play with toys..
(Sometimes even reach for the deepest one, & get stuck. Cry & scream 'til mom or dad hears & rescues you.)

And sleep when you think no one is watching..
