Six things about me

I have been tagged again but I guess I should do it because it is different and because I got a reminder from Alisha that I had been tagged and she hadn't seen anything on my blog yet.
So here is goes 6 things you might not have known about me.
1.The top joint of my middle finger on my left hand ( got that) No longer bends well in fact I don't ever remember it bending. I crushed the joint when I was like 5 in a folding chair. So now it is fused together and there for not bending.
2. I think if I was a coffee Drinker I would have to have a cup or two before I talked to ANYONE in the morning. Not a morning person. I guess I am getting better with Kenidee in my life.
3. I think I have a bit of OCD. I have to load the dishwasher a certain way. Plates all have to face the same direction, bottles sipppies and baby bowls all go in the same place EVERY time. Matching cups have to all be together. If robin tries to help I have to change it all around before I can start it. This drives him NUTS but he is getting better at just rinsing and setting it in the dishwasher and letting me do my little OCD thing.
4.I hate doing laundry. Everything about it I hate. So it NEVER is done. (wait is laundry ever really done) Maybe that is what I hate about it. I asked Robin If when we were rich and famous he would let me hire someone to do laundry and he said..YES rich and famous here we come. ;)
5. I rarely eat breakfast foods for breakfast. Milk makes me sick in the morning so I usually have some sort of soup or leftovers from the night before.
6.I am going to be a chaperon for my niece's High School orchestra trip this spring. we are going to California to Disney land and to wicked! I am so excited. My sister, Rebecca, and my aunt Vicki are going as well...I think it will be a bit of a party. I got the wicked CD for my birthday and I listen to it at least once a day so I know all the songs. oh.. could that be a bit pathetic.
There you go 6 thing you may not have known about be but you now do.

My Little Helper

The other day I was in the other room cleaning, and Kenidee plays alot in her room. When I call to her she calls back or walks out to show me she is still around. Well last week it didn't quite go like that. I called out to her and she didn't call back but I could here her playing so... I finished dishes and called her name again...nothing and I noticed it was REALLY quite in her room so I walked back and this is what I found.....


Pumpkin Carving!


This weekend we carved our pumpkins. We had our friends Kim and Trent and their son Ethan over we had a fondue party then carved pumpkins. Kenidee had fun all though she was super tired. She kept eating the pumpkin, she even bit off a part of her pumpkin lid. Robin carved Kenidee's, 2 on one of his pumpkins and another pumpkin. I carved my own. We have so much fun, and I am excited that Kenidee is getting bigger so holidays can be more fun for us.

Who would have thought that she would love eating the pumpkin guts and all.

No more hotels!

This weekend was so very fun, all in all. We went to Logan Utah for my niece Hailee's baby blessing. We Rode down in the BIG funeral home van! We have so much fun singing and laughing. Kenidee didn't sleep the whole way down.

We went to Liz's house to help her get all ready for the blessing day. We then went back to the hotel and went swimming then to dinner. Kenidee was so tired at dinner but she wont miss a beat. Someone is having fun and she wants to be having fun too. I guess she is a party animal.

We went back to the hotel so she could go to bed. She went to sleep really good. I was surprised because she wont sleep anywhere but in her own bed. (drives me nuts) So Robin went to my parents room to finish watching a movie. I told him I would stay in the room and read (Eclipse) by the light of the bathroom. I moved a chair over by the door and read.

So we got to bed late. I had to finish just one more chapter then just one more. those of you who have read these books know what I am talking about.

Anywho....Kenidee woke up at 2:00 ish SCREAMING!!! she was in and out but when she would wake up is was a terrible scream. She finally went to bed around 5.

I thought for sure she would fall asleep in church....nope at least at my sisters house. She did after everyone had left but robin had to hold her. So it was a cat nap. I then thought for sure on the way home... she would be out. NOPE!!!! Awake the whole way back to Rexburg.

We might have to wait awhile before we can go back to a hotel

lots of pictures to catch up on



First Steps! She is walking and she had to have a shoe in her hand
Uncle Justen and Aunt Bri got her to walk!

I admit this isn't the cutest picture but I had to post it for her Uncle Chris
I would ask her to say mac and CHEESE you got what she is saying right!
I made her this little headband and she looked so cute and grown up this day.
Rachelle got her to keep on her sunglasses! Who knew all you had to do was let her see herself in the mirror





I'm back

K so for all of you who have been asking... My laptop died... I know it was a sad day for me too but I got my new desk top and am starting to feel reconnected to the world and to my friends and family. So I have a lot to catch up on. So here we go!
Kenidee started walking about a week after her first birthday, it didn't take her long to start running. She is talking up a storm. She says so much. I might not be able to tell what she is saying, and sometimes she looks at me like duh mom I am talking to you. She loves to sit in her chair and read a book or sometimes I will catch her sitting in her chair talking to her baby, rocking and patting.
Robin started school. He is really liking it. I don't so much (just because he doesn't get home till about 10:30)
I am still working and being a mom. I did have a b-day September 23, and our neighbors brought me over a cake for my b-day. It was so cute and way nice of them to make sure I had a happy birthday and I did. Even though I am now old!
We do have some good news. We signed on our loan for a house! (in rigby) looks like we will be here for awhile! Hopefully we can get our permits soon so we can dig before the ground freezes! So we are officially poor! hip hip hooray!
Kenidee's new favorite place to sit and read. I would also drag her around the apartment in it too. I bet the neighbors downstairs loved that.
Isn't she so cute! (I am talking about Kenidee)Our fun friends(Kim and Trent) who made me a cake for my birthday.
We went and picked pumpkins Oct 6 and it snowed I have never had to dig for a pumpkin then pick it. What a cold day! It felt like we should have been going to get Christmas tree's instead of pumpkins


Kenidee loved the snow! We got this snow suit last winter for $7.00 it is so cute but when she would fall she couldn't get up. it reminded me of the movie a Christmas story
