December Happenings

We have a climber on our hands! Yes, he climbs on everything... including Abby's rolltop desk while I barely turned away to do something other than watch his every move!

This face is so typical of Rett. It means he's really into something... even if he knows he shouldn't be. He's totally got me wrapped around his little (or I should say big) finger though!


Now trying to figure out how he's going to get down. And yes he did all on his own.


Webcamming it with Karen and Tom one Friday night. Are you bored, Karen? Or just tired since you're expecting a baby?! Yea, we're excited for a little Grover.

My sweet cousins Taylor and Kali and their mom Sydney came over for a visit one day! It was so great to see them. Taylor just had a baby boy - Oliver - and Kali is expecting a girl (she lives in St. George now so I get to see her often)!

A beautiful sunset on our way to Abby's dance recital. We were running a bit late so I just rolled down the window and took a quick shot!

The Forgotten Carols at the Dixie Center - with Lynn and Kathryn, Natalie and Kevin

Just this past week, Rett has enjoyed sitting up to the table with Sis and coloring in her books. And no, he did not color that page his hand is placed upon.

And...

He's officially out of his high chair and into a booster seat. He figured that high chair out and got out of it many times. The new straps on the booster seat won't allow him to go anywhere! Plus, it's kind of fun for all of us to have everyone up to the table.

He loves his Eggo Waffles in the morning... especially when Sis leaves her plate and he can steal some of her syrup!

Abby spends a lot of time doodling in her room every night before she finally falls asleep. This particular night I found her with a couple of pictures and her hair bow in her hair! Whatever it takes I guess. Gotta look pretty in preps for some serious beauty sleep!
