To Everthing There is a Season






Another Halloween has come and gone. I can't help but get a little weepy (I blame it on the hormones) when I think back to just a year ago. Emma was only a few months old and Faith was having her first real Halloween. Now they both got to go have fun. They looked so adorable. Faith was Cinderlla (thanks Nana)and Emma was a flower. I don't think there are two cuter girls on this planet. Faith worked her magic and got tons of candy. Daddy was the trick or treater for Emma. I don't think the kids will ever finish all that candy. They had a great time. Next year will be even more fun.

Faith celebrated her 3rd birthday. I can't believe she is three already. We threw a party for her at Chuck E. Cheese. She had a blast. I have come to the realization that Chuch E. Cheese is like crack for kids. They get in there and they don't know where to start. The worst part is when its time to go. Faith was not happy with me when I told her it was time to leave. She ran up to Jason (after I had dragged her from the building; I'm sure her fingernail marks are still on the floor)and said "Mommy is mean." Luck for me she was to tired to cry very long as she was crashing from her sugar high. It was a wonderful party. It was nice not to have to worry about clean up. She got so much fun stuff for her birthday. Jason and got her a bike. It's a purple princess one (of course)!! She looks so cute on it. Jason is going to teach her how to ride it.

Emma is getting to be quite the cutie. She has really begun to chunk up. She has the most adorable little cheeks. And there are no words to describe her dimples. She has been walking for almost three months now and is Faith's little shadow. Emma loves playing with her sister (most of the time). Emma is finally trying to reallly talk. Faith has been helping that along. I'm at least thankful that Emma hasn't learned the word NO yet. It's only a matter of time though.

Jason is doing well at work. He just started language refresher class today. So he is back on days for the next two months (yeah!!!!). He is the new gospel principles teacher at our church. He is really enjoying that. I love watching him teach. He really is amazing.

I'm doing good. Its just the usual for me. We are half way through the pregnancy and we can't wait to meet our little boy. I'm so excited. I know this little boy is going to look and act just like Jason (any advice Mom W). This pregnancy has been great since I stop getting sick. So far I feel great and have finally gotten my energy back. We are really blessed.

Now its time to gear up for Thanksgiving, Jim and Pam's visit and my personal favorite CHRISTMAS!!! There is just something so exciting about celebrating Christmas in our very own house. We are going all out on the decorations and our tree. We are debating whether to go cut down a real one (fun trip for the family) or buy a fake one (don't have to worry about all the mess and we could put it up sooner:). Either way its going to be great. We love you all!!!!

Jason, Kelly, Faith, Emma and Baby Boy:

Hey guys, the girls are pretty as always. I would go with the fake tree, no mess like you said. And for the extra sensation for the nose, Yankee Candle Company makes a Christmas Tree Scented candle that is tough to beat--better than the real thing. Either way you will all be together and that is what counts. Please give my best to Jim and Pam when you see them.
