Some fun pictures of the kids!

Evan learning to play peek-a-boo!

Daphne was Sleeping Beauty for Halloween! She had tons of fun dressing up, wig and all!

Daphne was student of the week, and she got a gift certificate for Chili's!

Evan decided he wanted to eat not just his food, but the napkin too! (What a healthy appetite he has!)

The Kids and Great-Grandpa!

Daphne, Evan and I got back on Saturday evening from visiting family in Kansas. We had a blast seeing everyone! We were sad to come back, but happy to see Jeff again. We were happy to have warmer weather though! We have definately become accustomed to the warm weather, and become wimps when it comes to the cold.

We waited to tell Daphne we were flying out to Kansas until the right before we left for the airport. We got her up at 4:45am and told her at 5 am. Here is the reaction we got. We didn't really get a reaction from Evan. He just slept the whole time.

Evan had his 6 month check-up on November 4. He weighed 17lbs 10.5 oz! He is now 27.5 inches long. He is going to be a big boy. He is eating tons, so I figure he should weigh as much as Daphne in a year or two.

Daphne and Evan both got shots that day tood. Daphne just got her flu shot. She got to go first, and the nurse was awesome! She did it so quick, before Daphne could get away! When Daphne started to cry, Evan got a little upset too. It's so sweet to see how much he watches her. If she's upset, he is upset. Evan wasn't too happy after his 6 shots. He was pretty fussy for several days.

We are getting all set for the kids and I to go visit KS this weekend. Jeff has to work, so it's just the 3 of us. We haven't told Miss Daph yet. We have to leave pretty early on Saturday to catch our flight, so we are going to tell her once we get to the airport. I hope I can get a good picture of her reaction when we tell her we are going to visit everyone.

Halloween..a week long event!

This Halloween was an event that seemed to last a whole week! Last Saturday, we went up to Anthem, AZ to spend time with some friends of ours. We decided to go to their ward's(our old ward) trunk-or-treat. Then on Thursday (Oct 30), our ward had a trunk-or-treat. Friday in the day, I volunteered to help out for Daphne's kindergarten class party. Even before we went trick-or-treating, Daphne had 2 pumpkins full of candy! With all the candy she got thru out the week we didn't feel to bad only going to about 10 houses and calling it a night on Halloween.

This year, Daphne wanted to be about 20 different things. She decided on Sleeping Beauty. We had a wig and everything! She looked pretty cute!She kept posing for the camera, and telling me to "take more pictures of me"!

Evan was supposed to be a monkey. I bought a monkey costume that was 0-9 months. I held it up to him and everything. It looked more than big enough. When I started to get him dressed, I looked at the kid I was trying to stuff into this costume, then the costume. I realized no matter how hard we tried it was not going to fit! (Evan turned 6 months on the 30th and weighs almost 18 lbs!) Looking back, I probably should have bought a 12 month outfit! Jeff decided to get Daphne's first costume out. We were able to squeeze Evan into it, but it was snug! Evan didn't think it was very much fun, he pretty much screamed while Jeff was getting him dressed!
