It's getting colder

It has been a pretty low key November so far and I am really enjoying that. For the most part Logan quit napping so the days seem so much longer but my nights are going much better. Poor Logan would still take a 2-3 hour nap everyday if I let him but if he does the little guy won't go to bed at night. Even if I wake him up after only an hour he is still wired all night. Now he stays up in the afternoon but goes right to sleep around 7:15. Logan falls to sleep if we are in the car for more than 5 mins in the afternoon. One day I carried him inside the house and Jaden wanted to hold him. I thought it was pretty funny to see him trying to cuddle his giant little brother.



We have been raking like crazy trying to keep our leaves under control. The trees are still half full of leaves, we're hoping they fall before it starts to snow.





White Pass opened up this weekend so Scott and Jaden braved the cold and went skiing Saturday morning. Jaden of course had the time of his life and has been trying to earn money so that he can go back.

A spooktacular week

Last Sunday was Jaden's primary presentation in sacrament meeting. The Program started off with Jaden singing a solo of I'm A Child of God. He did such a great job and looked so handsome up there in his new suit. Jaden said that he was a little nervous but you couldn't tell, he marched up to the microphone and sang in loud voice. After his song he recited his part which was "I am a spirit child of Heavenly Father. In Psalms 82:6 it says, you are all children of the Most High". It was quite the mouthful for the little guy, but he had it memorized and did perfectly.
Logan loved watching Jaden sit up front at church and kept waving at him throughout the meeting.

Last weekend we also got to see the Oscar Mayer truck at one of our local grocery stores. The kids got to walk through it and got a wiener whistle so it was an exciting day in our book.



I got really sick earlier this week with bronchitis so my kids got to spend a few days playing over at grandma and grandpa's house. They loved it and keep asking why they can't keep going over there everyday. While was on my deathbed Jaden's preschool at a Halloween party so I wasn't able to help out. However, by Friday was well enough to drive and and help out at his field trip to a pumpkin patch. They had a haymaze there that they kids ran through about 300 times. So cute!

On Friday we had our ward Halloween party.



Saturday we finally got around to carving our pumpkins.




Trick-or-treating....or as Logan kept saying "Cookie-treat".
