This one’s for the boys

In the past week, my boys cut down most of the rest of the olive tree. It was just too messy to stay. We have lots of olive wood if anyone local wants some before we get rid of it!

They painted pumpkins. Aiden was particularly excited to design and paint a pirate pumpkin.

Landon is inconsistently interested in using the potty and consistently keeping us very busy.

Aiden did a good job with his second Primary Program. He remembered his part all by himself and made a good effort on the songs, ha, so we were proud of him.

He also participated in the school Walk-a-Thon and did 22 laps (over two miles). He never complained, jogged a lot, and had a blast.

Both boys love to help out with their little sister.

October Adventures

We enjoyed a walk around the Oakland Zoo with Mandy and Emma while they visited.

Landon brushed the goats for the first time and thought that was pretty awesome. He also got completely filthy climbing around in some dirt by the tigers.

The tigers were snoozing… and so was Charlotte.

We went by the temple while in Oakland and saw the new reflection pool.

We went to the pumpkin patch, which Aiden looks forward to every year, and he was especially excited to be able to share the experience with his cousin.

I don’t always think my boys look a lot alike, but sometimes I’m surprised to see how much they can…

Emma liked this part of the pumpkin patch.

And here I thought it was hard to take a good picture of TWO kids… Is it even possible to take a good picture of THREE?

We sure had fun visiting. Can’t wait to see Mandy, Bryant, and Emma again!

The kiddos lately

Charlotte was blessed in church on the 11th. We were lucky to have lots of family come by to visit, including this cutie!

Aiden got his kinder picture…

We enjoyed watching General Conference in our PJs.

We went to the Grand Opening of the new Chick Fil-A in Fremont. Landon met a cow and got one of his own.

We’re looking forward to some fun this coming week!

One Month Old!

She loves to sleep all curled up, preferably ON someone.

Is there anything cuter than tiny baby hands and feet? Charlotte does have pretty long fingers though.

In case you were wondering, she still sleeps a lot. She slept nearly eight straight hours for the first time last night! Way to go, Charlotte!
