COOOOLD!

Daddy took the girls to the zoo for an Environmental Law Society event today. Here they are, all bundled up. (Today's high was 50, and the low was 34.) :o(

Trunk or Treat

Our cute little Tigger, takin' a snooze

Scott says she's Sacagawea, because he hates Pocahontas.

Princess Merida!

These ones make me smile because of the interaction between the two girls:

Queen Elizabeth, giving orders. :o)

 

Silly Lizzie

This morning after breakfast I told Lizzie to "throw her bowl in the sink." She (innocently) took me literally and threw the bowl in the sink--after which I threw the broken bowl in the garbage.

Then when we got home from the store I found--not one--but three pink scarves in my bags. I wondered why our total at checkout was higher than anticipated. :o)

Liz the Composer

As we were driving home from the pumpkin patch today, Liz made up a song about our little excursion. Unfortunately, I didn't catch the first verse (about carving the pumpkin) on tape.

Gust Brothers Pumpkin Farm

Doesn't she look so grown up here?



 

 



 

The Kiddos

Eating an apple in the basket of her shopping cart.

Lizzie got jealous that I was taking a picture of Heidi, so she said: "Mom, take a picture of my party!"

I just love that he sleeps with his little feet up (and sucking on his thumb)!

At Uncle Jeff and Aunt Sherry's

Donuts... The Breakfast of Champions!

We think this was Heidi's first exposure to donuts. We're pretty sure she enjoyed it.

Riding the Horsey

BOYS!

Washing the Cars

Great little helper!

We love this little guy!

This sleeping position can't be comfortable!

He is just so cute I can't stand it!

Sunday Afternoon Nap

Between sessions of Conference.

 

More "Fashions by Lizzie"

This picture really doesn't do it justice, but she's wearing a pink tutu with two High School Musical bandanas underneath (like a skirt), and an artist's smock over the top. Oh, and let's not forget the purple tiara. :o)

I include this picture because it's (sadly) the only picture I took while Michael was staying with us last week.

I've been shot!

Owen had his four-month check up last Monday. He measured in at the 79th percentile for weight and the 84th percentile for height. He also had to get a whole bunch of shots. (Notice the bandaids.) Poor little guy.

Ball Cap

Scott doesn't like that Owen is wearing a University of Utah hat, but he's just so darn cute in it, don't you think?

(The hat was a hand-me-down that we inherited.)

Owen and Heidi

Trying to Roll Over

Owen has been try to roll over for the last week or two, but his pesky arm keeps getting in the way! He's getting there though. He started out on his back, and this is how he ended up:

Poor guy wore himself out with all the effort! :o)

Asleep

Owen Says Hello

Cuddling with Daddy

Toledo Raceway

What do Eliza Doolittle, Mary Poppins, and the Miller girls all have in common?

Yep, they all enjoy a good ol' horse race:

We went with Uncle Jeff, Aunt Sherry, Michael, and Daniel to watch the Harness Races at Toledo Raceway tonight.

Bouncing

Pirates

We checked out "Jake and the Never Land Pirates" from the library this week, and the girls decided to dress up like pirates:

(I use the term "dress up" loosely; they're just HSM bandanas.)

National Waffle Week

Where better to celebrate?

 

 

Heidi's Breakfast

I left the room for a few minutes, and...

Waffle with syrup, anyone?

For Grandpa Baker

Notice the airplanes on Owen's pjs:

Cowgirls

One of the best things about having a cowboy cousin is that he sometimes lets you borrow his cowboy hat and ride his horse:

When Heidi wears it, it looks more like a floppy tea party hat.
