Halloween Chickens

Why did the chicken cross the road?

To get more Halloween candy!
Here are our little chickens Saturday night all ready for trunk-or-treating at our ward party.

Sweet Callie-girl

What's sweeter than your 2-year old asking you to sing her "I Am a Child of God" as you put her to sleep?

Chocolate Pudding & Ice Cream - Yum!

When I told Callie I was so glad there was chocolate pudding all over her shirt, she sweetly replied, "Thank ya Mommy." And if you haven't tried hot chocolate pudding & ice cream, you haven't lived! (Thank ya Andy & Didi!) It's crazy good! Just heat up your chocolate pudding (or make the cook & serve kind) & have it with vanilla ice cream! It's de-lish!

Jack is ONE!

I love Billpay! I'd never signed up for it before because we don't have direct deposit & I'm too cheap to pay 7 bucks a month for the convenience. But we made some changes to our accounts so now we finally have free Billpay & I set it up today & I can tell it's gonna be great! Woohoo! I've already scheduled my utility bills & mortgage payments for the month & I'm stoked! If you don't use Billpay you should - unless you have to pay $7/month!

So Jack had his first Birthday last week (17th)! I can't believe he's 1!
He had a huge slice of chocolate cake, just like Callie did on her first Birthday. Although Callie didn't get up in the middle of the night for 2 hours because of a stomach ache like Jack did! Not fun! Poor little guy! Poor us! We celebrated his birthday on Sunday since Tara had come for the weekend, so on his actual Birthday, I only fed him the smallest amount of cake! It wasn't that good anyway.

Here are some other recent pics of the kids for your viewing enjoyment!

Utah Visit

We've been on the road again. The kids & I anyway. I don't know who loves the long drives more - me or them. We went to Utah a couple weeks ago to visit the Condies & my sisters. It was pretty fun for Callie & Jack to be there - lots of new toys, kids their age, & stairs - which were pretty new for Jack. I think he was feeling pretty good about himself on those stairs before we left! So talk about crazy - 2 moms & 5 LITTLE kids! Spencer had just turned 3, Callie's 2, Preston's 1 1/2, Jack's almost 1, & Tanner's weeks old! Wendy & I tried to go into a scrapbook store that supposedly had a play area for kids while the moms shopped. The "play area" was part of a kid corral that was maybe 5' long & 3' at its widest part with a few dirty toys. So one of the kids started crying & it was a total chain reaction. I was trying to juggle Callie & Jack in each arm & look at ribbon & between the 2 squirming & trying to get out of my arms to reach stuff & the stench of Jack's freshly pooped diaper, I just couldn't take it any more. I took my kids & we waited in the car with Toy Story on the DVD player. After that fiasco, Wendy & I took turns going into stores that didn't have shopping carts!
