Assignments

I purchased a few preschool workbooks from the dollar store. Parker has worked on them on and off for a few months, but just recently he wants to do them all the time. He says he has some 'assignments' to do. Now he even pulls out his little toy desk and wants to sit at his desk to do his assignments. A few times he has wanted his teddy bear, Fuzzy, to be the one to help him with his work. So I have to hold Fuzzy and guide him through. If I fail to use Fuzzy's voice, he notices and stops what he is doing and says, 'Who said that? You or Fuzzy?'

He is so much fun and I am always amazed at how much he knows and can actually do.

Plate-Hopping

Don't turn your back when Little Autumn is around.
You might just lose your food.

The Straws came to visit

Just a few pictures of Evan and Chase. Parker had so much fun playing with Evan. It was so much fun to watch them running around giggling and jumping on beds.

Autumn Girl

Just some photos of Autumn. Enjoy!
Her favorite place to play these days; in the desk drawer.

So Sad!

Hiding, so she doesn't have to get her clothes on.

Extreme Cheesy Smile!

Autumn praying. She now clasps her hands when we tell her we are saying prayers.

More Cheese. Look at those teeth.

She climbed up here and got stuck. She was crying, but automatically cheesed for the camera.

Parker's Friends

Parker loves to play with friends. Here are a few shots with some friends he has been playing with lately. (Lounging with Jack, above.)

Gracie

Yes, Parker and our neighbor, Cayden, are playing with Autumn's dolls.And of course, Parker's best friend is his Dad. Here they are sleeping in our living room campout.

October Family Fun

We used the first Family Home Evening in October to pick out pumpkins at a Pumpkin Patch, which was actually just someone's front yard. Parker was so excited and counted down the days until it was time to go get our pumpkins. For the next FHE, we carved our pumpkins. We were lucky enough to have Kimmy and Granny here for the big event. Once again, Parker was so excited and even went out on the front porch to give his pumpkins a hug before he went to bed.

Sleepover!

My brother, Andrew, and his wife, Trena, were in town. We had a fun picnic in the canyon and walked up to Bridal Veil Falls. Andrew and Trena continued on down to Vegas for their anniversary, while Jill and Ron watched their kids. One night, Jordan was able to have a fun sleepover at our place with Parker. This was Parker's first sleepover with a friend/cousin at his house (with out the friend's parents being here also). It was so funny to listen to them laughing and giggling in their room as they were lying in their beds, going to sleep. They really had so much fun:

• Watching cartoons (above).
  
• Jumping on the 'bed.' (Autumn too)
• Just playing and laughing
• Storytime by Me, with our neighbor Cayden.
• Marble Fun
• Naptime! Three kids sleeping at once. It was so amazing, that I took pictures. Then I sat down on the couch, ate candy and watched HGTV.
