Sorry for the break

My blogging streak didn’t last long, did it? Well here’s a little update.
We painted the office pink and moved Anna in, with a “big girl” bed. The first thing she did was find a loose edge of paint and peeled a basketball sized spot off the wall. There is still no other furniture in the room besides her bed but that will change soon.
In August we took a trip back to NY and we had a lot of fun visiting family. Anna especially loved the gum drops from Great Grandma and Grandpa Shaver’s.
We have season tickets to the BYU football games in Provo. We’re huge fans and have started the girls out early. Anna loves “BYU Cougar Day!” and I’m trying to teach Molly to raise her arms when I say “touchdown!” The BYU bows are my favorite part of their fan gear.
In early September Ben ran a 5K at Liberty Park. He did an awesome job after only training for 6 weeks. He crossed the finish line after 27 min 13 seconds. Go Ben! I’m so proud!
While Carrie was in town we got together for a “craft night”. Carrie helped me make a BYU sling, AWESOME! I love my girls!
Molly has learned to sit up!
My friend Antoinette had a baby just a week before Molly was born and we’ve already decided they are to be married. Isn’t this a cute engagement picture?
I’ve taken up bow making. These are to match their Christmas dresses
Molly has started eating solid food and she loves applesauce! I make her baby food in the food processor and so far she’s tried squash, peas, pears, applesauce and bananas.
Here are only a few of the many tomatoes we harvested this year. I have had fun learning to can with Ben’s mom. We’ve done tomatoes, taco sauce, pears and peaches.
A tickling match? Well yes, but the important thing to note in this picture is the PANTIES! Anna is now potty trained!
I made the Halloween costumes this year. Anna is Goldbug from the Richard Scarry books and Molly is a ballerina. I made the tutu and the alteratations to the jammies, as well as the antenna headband.
Tonight we went to a pumpkin patch/corn maze! Anna LOVED it and our 4 person family got in for only $6! It was great.
