1st day of Autumn

Yesterday was officially the 1st day of Autumn. Summer is finally over and I am thrilled. Let the holidays begin!!

So yesterday Clint came home from work with a pumpkin to carve. This is the 1st time Tacey has ever done this. We thought she was going to think it was a lot of fun.

She liked drawing the face on the pumpkin. Tacey did not like it when we took the top off the pumpkin. She was scared of the insides and kept saying that it "stinks real bad".
Well she didn't want to touch the inside of the pumpkin to help get the seeds out but I talked her into doing it anyways. And yes, that is the gag reflex on her face below!
Once I gave her a spoon to scoop the insides out with she was much happier, even though she kept saying that it smells really bad.
Cash had to just watch from the highchair.

The final result of the pumpkin.

Payson

Recently we went to Payson to see Clint's family. It was a really short trip but we had a good time.

Clint and his Dad going on a bike ride. Tacey and her Gigi.

Cash and his Gigi.

Visitors!!!

Last Friday Shannon, Sara and Payten came over to our house for the afternoon. The kids had soo much fun playing together.

They put their swimsuits on and went outside and played in the water (which also was a bubble maker).
Then they came inside and had a picnic with some yummy snacks (it was too hot to have the picnic outside).

Thank you Shannon, Sara and Payten for coming over. It was so fun to spend time with you and Tacey and Cash had a lot of fun with their Aunts and cousin!

Playing Together

So now that Cash is totally mobile Tacey and him are playing together and keeping each other entertained. It is so nice that Cash is finally old enough for Tacey to have fun with.

Just Catching Up

So I realize that I have been a really bad blogger lately. I haven't updated in almost a month. I will try to be better :) but here are some pictures of what has been going on lately.

Over Labor Day Weedend we went to Mormon Lake. We were able to stay for 5 days. The weather was soo nice, the last few days it rained and was actually cold. I of course was unprepared for that since when we left home it was soo hot. We had to go to Flagstaff and buy us all jackets. The kids had a great time playing outside and getting dirty.

Starting to walk

Okay so I just wanted to document. Cash took his 1st few steps on his own last night. He is still a little wobbly but he is getting the hang of it. He will be 10 months old on Wednesday. I thought I would have more time before he would be walking :) He is just growing up too fast.

Busy, Busy , Busy

So I haven't had much time to update my blog lately, things have been Crazy. So here is a little bit of what has been happening lately.
-We all came down with the stomach flu. Cash, Tacey and I had it at the same time, but of course somehow Clint didn't catch it at all. Guess that was lucky so he was able to take care of the kids while I was too sick to take care of anything.
-Tacey has decided to try potty training, AGAIN. Hopefully this time will go better than last time!!
-Tacey has also started sleeping in a "big girl bed". I was dreading this day for a while but I knew it had to come eventually. The other day I put her in her crib for a nap and she came walking out of her room a few minutes later, so I knew it was time to make the switch. I am very proud of her though, it has been an easy adjustment and she has been staying in bed all night and at nap time.
-Cash is teething again and is really fussy ALL the time. He is also learning to walk. It won't be long now and he will be running away from me!

I will post again soon with hopefully something more exciting and some pictures.
