Zoo

Here are the pictures from the zoo...Thanks for sending them Marci!

Ok this is actually lagoon but it was so cute I thought I would throw it in :)

The giraffes (my favorite) actually I just love the little garage doors...but Kennedie wanted to ride them!

Heres Lu Lu on the train, she is always such a good baby!

Kennedie being compared to a gorilla...lol

The famous Lion Water Fountain

We really had alot of fun I love going with Kennedie to all of her little school functions. I am so lucky to be able to stay home and share these experiences with my girls!

Quirk Tag

I was tagged by Kim...well here goes nothing.

Rules; 1 Link the person who tagged you. 2 Mention the rules on your blog. 3 Tell about 6 unspectacular quirks of yours. 4 Tag 6 other bloggers by linking them.

1. I count the letters in words and sentences and then I mess with the punctuation until it is an even number.I am obsessive with this, if I am sitting really quietly I am more than likely doing this. I do it with almost every conversation, I have done it for YEARS and I know if most words are even or odd just off the top of my head by now. (ok thats a bad one!)

2. I HATE fingerprints especially on the microwave UGH but really on anything! This is a tough one with a 3 year old and a house with a flat screen tv, a marble fireplace and lots of black furniture!

3. Toppings HAVE to be on TOP. With sandwiches and hamburgers both! I have even been known to order a hamburger and specify this. It seems like a simple task to me but people always put that stuff under the meat. I want the mayo, ketchup and mustard on the bun then the lettuce then pickles then onions, cheese then meat and if it's wrong I will fix it before I can eat it.....lol Jason thinks I am totally insane over this one!

4. When my adrenaline rushes it makes my arm pits tingle LOL I know it sounds so wierd...well, thats probably because it is, but it's true!

~These last two are just like two of Kims....maybe it's in our genes?!?~

5. I am absolutely terrified of calling people on the phone and sometimes answering too. I get butterflies and YES my arm pits tingle HAHA. I used to ask if we could have pizza for dinner and my dad (knowing my fear) would so "Only if you call and order it" needless to say we would NOT have pizza that night! I am ok with calling my mom, jason and my grammie but thats about it. SO dont think I am rude for not calling I just get nervous, I know it's irrational but none the less... THANKS GOODNESS FOR TEXT MESSAGING!

6. I am very picky about my house (and my towels) I get upset at Jason for not helping me sometimes, but then when he does I stand back and direct him or I just go back and do it myself so it kind of defeats the purpose.

Ok there you have it, hopefully none of you try to commit me now.

I tag Desire, Mom & Jerri (since you two have no posts)

The Happy Halloween With A Scary Ending!

We had a great Halloween week, The girls were Little Bo Peep and her Baby Lamb. Kennedie had a carnival at school. I forgot my camera so thanks Marci for the pictures! This is Kennedie Brecklyn and Gracie, as you can see I was a little nervous about Brecklyn falling off...
heres the parade at school she was so cute!

This was the beginning of our trick or treating, Brecklyn was such a trooper!



Heres the last stop, Grandma Jo's house, we always end there because they get new jammies so they can take their costumes off. We had so much fun, But then we had our scary ending...

The Scary Ending

So when we got home from trick or treating Kennedie and I ran across the street to take our friends a halloween gift. On our way home I was carrying her, it was dark and sprinkling a little but we were running and playing like we always do. But then we hit a pot hole, which is no surprise in Tooele, we stumbled a couple times but I knew we were going to fall so I dropped to my knees hoping to take the first blow and hang on to Kennedie but when we hit she fell out of my arms. Seeing her little body hit the ground and HEARING her head smack the pavement is the single worst thing ever! So I ran her inside knowing that she would need stitches which she didnt thank goodness, Jason tried to calm her down while I stopped my knee from bleeding. Then I got worried about a concussion so we called Dr. Grandma Jo and she told us what to look for. But anyway she was fine and cheered up after a bit and we played doctor she even let us put an ice pack on her HUGE goose egg. She was pretty excited that she got to sleep with us too!

We have twins!!

Kennedie loves reading to Brecklyn...which is adorable in and of it's self...But when I looked at the picture I realized how much they look alike!
They are so sweet, we are so incredibly blessed!!

This week kennedie has been making lots of Halloween art at school. She loves bringing it home and decorating our house with it.
She's made spiders, mummies & daddies, Frankenstien & a few more. I am so glad we put her is school this year and she has a great teacher, she is growing up so fast!
