Prom 2009

As YW Pres i'm "lucky" to get to go to most of the youth stake activities but this one I actually was excited about doing! I made Dan take me to their semi formal. Its our first date since Twilight came out. I know right! Its been too long. Christina and Matt babysat which was great cause the kids just love them so I didn't have to worry about that. It was so much fun to dress up a little and go dancing with my honey. Christina provided the wardrobe cause she's got all the cute maternity clothes and new cute shoes!!! We went over to my parents before leaving and did some pics just like it was prom night. Too too fun. Alas...we were at a youth activity so our young men had to act like idiots of course which put a damper on the whole evening but other than that is was a great time.

Lucy Elaine

Lucy is my little girl in every sense of the word. She loves to play with baby dolls. I think its her favorite toys ever. She has a doll swing and bed and many babies to put in them and love. She's very protective of them. She's also starting to be a little bossy pants. Anytime I give isaac instructions she has to yell them at him over and over. Especially during prayer. I can't remember the last time we had it without Lucy yelling Isaac prayer the whole time! She's talking up a storm and into absolutely everything that isn't nailed down. She keeps me busy.

Isaac

I've been remiss in keeping up on this. So I'll put up some pics of both the kids. Isaac is into oh...computer games, wii games, puzzles. But mostly into spelling and trying to read. I tell you what this kid is going to have quite a time when he starts school cause he's so far ahead when it comes to his reading skills. He loves it and he's so good at it! He's my little genius.

I'm tired of waiting for the hair!

I want Lucy to have hair so bad so I can play with it! I put some of it up in a little ponytail and it looked so cute. She hated it of course. Its just a good thing she couldn't reach it to take it out.

Snuggling with Daddy

Dan fell asleep on the couch and I guess the kids thought it would be a good idea to cuddle up with him. Lucy got up there first of course cause she never misses out on an opportunity to cuddle with Daddy and Isaac can't be left out so he joined them slightly there after. This is why you don't nap on the couch!!

Modeling...kind of

Showcasing Isaacs hat.

I love the leaning on the pillow look! Very classic.

Another classic, the over the shoulder!

Notice the squinty eyes in all the fake smile pictures!

K this is my last one for tonight!! We've discovered what most parents of a little girl probably already know...little girls are natural posers when you say camera time! Lucy was so funny posing for Christina with her fake little smile. I had to share some of the funnier ones.

Happy Halloween!

I love dressing the kids up for Halloween. It so cute to see them in their little costumes. This year Lucy was a scarecrow but she wouldn't wear her hat. :( Isaac was not to thrilled to wear his costume either. When we were talking about it a month ago he said he wanted to be Link from the video game Legend of Zelda so I was like Ok we can make that. Well now he wants to be Mario but its too late for that. I think he looks adorable in it though. And for those who don't know...yes I did make the costume. The top I had help from mom making a pattern and cutting and piecing together but with the pants and hat I did all by myself and I was so excited with how they turned out! Dan thinks I'm getting very domestic now cause I've also been cooking a lot as well. Anyways, Halloween was a blast with Andrea, Les, and Danica. Oh the most fun was the house with the tunnel up to the door. Les ran through it leaving poor Isaac to fend for himself. He was screaming and crying in terror and brandishing his little sword and everything that got near him! And I was in the car dropping them off and Andrea was out with him. The owner was kind enough to put his screaming body back in the car and give him a BIG candy bar. It was really sad for Isaac but pretty funny to watch. The rest of the night was uneventful and the kids were tuckered out by the time I got home they didn't even stir when I took them out of their clothes. The first two pics are for Christina. I know how much you love that butt shot! HAHA
