All moved in...

well, except for my cell phone, a pitcher, our best knife, and our potato peeler. Why is it that when you move you lose things??? Where do they go? Especially my phone, I'd really like to know where that went!!! I'm thinking Kyla threw it away or something!


Kyla brushing her teeth right before church on Sunday in her new bathroom.


Maelie and her Dora... coloring a picture for Daddy.


Maelie and Kyla ready for church


playing with daddy in the "big house" - what Maelie calls it. For some reason, she doesn't wanna go back to the "little house" ... We are really loving our new place! The added space was greatly needed! And the backyard and garage are definitely a bonus!

HOUSE

We're moving into a house this week... yyeeeeaaaahhhhh!!!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN

We had a lot of fun trick-or-treating last night.

Cousins ready to go!

Fairy Kailin, Princess Anna, King Jakob, Cat Kyla, and Princess Maelie


Maelie running for more candy!

Kyla on the turtle, so incredibly happy with a sucker in hand


Maelie and cousin Anna - princesses riding in their carriage


at dance class they got to wear their costumes... Princess Anna (cousin), Princess Maelie, Fairy Kailin (cousin), and Witch Bianca (friend)... and Princess Jaycee walking in front


Kyla trick-or-treating to Grandma for the gazillionth time!


Jonas' costume ;)


This is my first grade teacher Mrs. Littlefield! My nephew Jake is in her class and wanted to trick-or-treat at her house so I got to go see her! Very cool!


Princess Maelie - all ready to go!... and yes, she finally decided to be a princess, she just didn't want to wear the Princess dress we bought for her and didn't want to wear her crown either! So she had 3 different cosumes this year!

PUMPKIN CARVING FHE

We had a fun FHE last night!


For dinner we had a jack-o-lantern pizza from Papa Murphy's!


After lesson, we carved a pumpkin! haha! This is a funny pic! Kyla kept saying "pumpkin" and grabbing it...


the fam with our finished jack! Maelie chose the shape for the eyes, nose, and mouth and Jonas carved it

BUTTERFLY?!?!?!

So... if you read a previous post on here you would know that Maelie has been changing her mind between a cat and a princess! Well, for our ward trunk or treat on Saturday night, she was a butterfly! It was totally and completely her idea. I thought she looked pretty cute, just wish we had some antennas for her.


Maelie loved going trunk or treating with her "church friends"... this is the Lee family in our ward... she didn't leave them all night! And of course Jonas and Kyla.


Maelie and Cydney


They did this cute pose on their own. Kyla was going to be the fuzzy cat costume Maelie wore a couple years ago, but I couldn't find the ears. Well, she loves this costume anyway and she looked cute, too.


Cute sisters


WAY cute little kitty

It's a .....................

BOY!!!!

We got to find out afterall. After a kinda crazy and scary morning in labor and delivery, both our baby BOY and I are doing fine! I guess it was worth the scare to find out he's a boy! Jonas knew all along but I doubted myself.

Once a cat, always a cat!

Maelie has ALWAYS been a cat for halloween!




This is her 2nd halloween 2005 (she didn't dress up for her first) my Mom and I made her this cute little fuzzy cat costume...



Last night we went to a carnival for my parent's ward. Maelie is really into princesses and dresses and stuff so I thought she'd wanna be a princess. Well, she has been saying she wants her and Kyla to be cats again (last year my Mom made them these cat costumes) Well, they play in them all the time. Maelie changes her mind just about everyday in between being a princess and a cat. On Monday she wanted to be a princess so we went to Target and got her a dress, Beauty from Beauty and the Beast. She put it on and said, "I don't like it, I wanna be a cat." So last night at the carnival they wore their costumes from last year. They are a little small but they still look cute.


Kyla has a blue mouth from a sucker...


This is halloween last year.


Trick or Treating Halloween 2006

So, we have a ward trunk or treat on Saturday and trick or treating on Wednesday of course. We will see what she decides to be on those days... my Mom made her a beautiful princess cape so I think that might change her mind!

BOY OR GIRL?!?!?!

Ah man! I had my ultrasound today and the baby sure didn't want me to know, the little stinker! His legs were up over his head and crossed and he just wouldn't show us! So in 8 more weeks, we try again! I can't wait to find out! I was pretty bummed!!! But on a better note, the baby is healthy and growing! =)

Just some pix and a video

This is Maelie doing one of her very favorite things! Sorry for the lack of clothing...

We got the girls a water table and they have been playing with it all day every day!

This is Kyla and her sheepee, she doesn't go anywhere without it!

Kyla painting... we have to watch her because she starts eating it and painting herself!

Another favorite Stanford family pastime - horsey rides! Kyla is starting to talk really well and this is actually something she can say... "horsey ride!"

The girls love wearing Jonas' chem goggles!

This is the POP game... it has evolved now to Maelie and Kyla putting a "coin" in each of Jonas hands (giving him 5) before he lifts them and precedes with the rest of the game!

I'm free!!!...

hahaha! I am the enrichment leader in my ward and have just finished the last enrichment night OF THE YEAR!!! I feel so good to be done! It has been a trying calling for me and it took me all year to actually enjoy one of the enrichment nights I planned. Last night was the best one yet and I actually had fun! It was a service aucition and turned out really well! I better keep my mouth shut or I'm going to get another calling to fill my time! =) Also... yesterday was the 5 year anniversary of the VERY best first date I have EVER had! I am so glad Jonas asked me out because we had sooooo much fun together and well, now we're married!

Karsyn - a new neice!

Karsyn was born yesterday! She is my sister Taani's 2nd little girl. 9 lbs 9 oz and healthy!
