Fall Happenings!


We have made it nearly all the way through the fall and so much has happened. Last Tuesday we experienced our first set of stitches. Poor little Blaire tripped and fell and hit her head. She was very brave....I was not. She cried and so did I. Dad kept it together, barely. On Sunday we had them taken out and I think that the scar is going to minimal on her forehead. I suppose if nothing else it will add character(as if she needed anymore of that!) Well, enough with that, as there is so much that has happened in the last couple of months.

Stuart and I decided this fall that Blaire needed a couple of structured activities to participate in. We enrolled her in Ballet and she was old enough to start AWANAS at one of the churches here in town.

Blaire loves Ballet and is really doing well. She comes home and shows us her "moon arms" and her moves that are pronounced in French that I cannot begin to spell.

AWANAS has also proved to be a wonderful experience for her. She works hard each week to memorize her versus and is good to say them for her teachers. I am amazed at what she is learning and enjoy talking to her about her lessons. The Lord is working on her 3 year old heart!



Presleigh is a hoot. Really, this child keeps us laughing ALL the time. I personally have never met a happier baby who is so ready to giggle. While Blaire is my more serious child; Presleigh is quite the opposite. She most often finds her sister the center of her attention which is to be expected as Blaire has discovered that Presleigh makes a great audience!

Presleigh isn't crawling yet, but she is rolling all over the place. It is funny to watch her as she has a destination to get to but has to maneuver her body which seems to pivot around her head. I keep trying to explain to her that crawling would be easier but she hasn't given it a try yet. She will in her own time and I am relishing her babyness as long as I can!

About two weeks ago Presleigh cut her first tooth and a second bottom tooth is about to make its appearance in the next day or two. I dread the teeth as she is still nursing but their is nothing cuter than a baby smile with two bottom teeth shining through.

I am amazed everyday how much I can love these two little girls!


Sweet Blessings!



Wow, what a fall we have had. We are still celebrating my sister and brother-in-law's move to Colorado Springs and relishing in the fact that we can see them and enjoy their company on a regular basis. We made a trip to springs a week after they moved and are looking forward to spending Thanksgiving with them as well.

Although, I feel for the family they left behind in Missoula, I am soaking in the fact that we can spend a weekend with them without a years worth of planning. Very exciting. I am also thrilled that I will be able to host them at our home this Christmas! God is good....all the time!

Cheese!

I have been dabbling in different ways to make money! I love taking pictures and have been doing it on the side for awhile but have not put much effort into getting my name out. I have recieved quite a bit of buisiness from word of mouth and right now with my crazy schedule that is about as much as I can handle. Here some of my favorites!
