My Little Monkey!

We had a hard time deciding what we wanted to dress Parker as for Halloween. We originally were going to have him be part of our group costume (the Clue crew) and dress him as Mr. Body but we hard a hard time finding a skeleton costume for a 8 month old. I also had imagined him dressing up all cute and adorable as most babies do. So we hunted and hunted and never really fell in love with anything in particular but decided that since we call him our little monkey we would just dress him as that. Now that he is crawling it seemed to fit even more! He is crawling around and getting into every thing so a Monkey he was! Unfortunately his huge noggin was too big for the head piece, so it kind of just rested on top. Needless to say, his is the CUTEST little Monkey I have ever seen!!
This is his trick of the month, we call it his Lizard tongue, he sticks it out like this all day! Too funny! I love it!


He really likes to stand on his own lately, so I stood him up next to some decorations. He was in awe and confused about the fake spider webs, it was so fun to watch him feel them and pull them and then get frustrated because he couldn't let go. Too cute!


Here he is Halloween night with his little friend Cody.


Happy Halloween!

He does make a pretty dang cute monkey! I'm sad we didn't get to see your "clue" costumes at the ward party. We ended up not going...obviously since we weren't there! I saw a picture on Janneka's blog though, and you guys all looked so good!

What to pack . . .

So now that he really could come ANY DAY I figured it was probably time for me to pack my bag. I of course have one of those "What to bring" checklist, but I was wondering what your thoughts where. Is there anything you wish you had brought but didn't? Is there anything you would have died without if you hadn't brought it? I'm just so clueless! A few tips from you experienced mothers would be greatly appreciated!! I cant believe it is so close!!

Have you noticed?

I need a haircut ASAP! This is me saying, "I'll smile if you ignore my hair." Don't get me wrong, I am really excited I have long hair, I love having long hair , but it needs a little TLC. It has been a few months since I have even got a trim and I am still re-couping from a not so good hair cut. The last few times I have really CUT my hair, not just a trim, I was not pleased with the results. Now it would probably help if I was willing to pay more than $10 for a hair cut . . . but I'm Mrs. High Pockets as my father calls me and it is really hard for me to spend money on my hair. So I need your help! What do you think I should do? Before you make any suggestions you should know: It MUST be able to go back into a ponytail!!!!!!! My hair is STICK STRAIGHT My hair will not curl to save my life (via over night curls, hot curls, even curling irons, they just don't work) I want and need something EASY! I do not like to spend time on my hair and I don...

No Use Crying Over Spilled Milk . . .

So being an emotional pregnant woman is definitely taking its tole on both me and Jeff (what a wonderful, patient, and understanding man he is). Saturday morning I was so excited because for the first time in weeks we actually had a morning together. I had planned to make us a delicious breakfast just like my dad always did for me. We had Eggs, Hashbrowns, and even Bacon; we were so excited. So I started cooking the bacon first, knowing it would take the longest. Then when I thought they were close to being done, Jeff started cooking the eggs and I threw on the hashbrowns. Well, needless to say, the eggs finished super fast and the others were not even close. And then to add more to my frustration the pan I was using for the hashbrowns was awful! Despite my many tablespoons of butter the entire thing was completely stuck! I switched pans in the middle to try to save them. In the meantime Jeff ate his eggs so they wouldn't get cold. I insisted on waiting so I could eat th...
