First hair cut

Conner's hair had gotten really long, as you can see from the previous post. It was time to cut it. I debated with Clint whether or not I should take him to have it done professionally or not. I cut Clint's hair, so if it looks bad it's my fault. Finally on Sunday I couldn't take it anymore. We strapped him to his booster seat and I cut away all that beautiful blond hair. He actually did a great job sitting there until the very end. Now he looks older and I think I did an okay job. He was such a brave boy! I think I cut at least 2-2 1/2 inches off. It also looks like he has more hair because it's all even with the new stuff growing in.

Happy Halloween!

Clint was able to spend Halloween with us this year. We had a great time trick or treating and getting the kids ready. Conner didn't appreciate the costumes I borrowed so we improvised a bit. I drew glasses on Conner and Clint drew a lightning bolt. For Kaily, she was Cinderella, we put my make-up on her. She LOVED it! We let them go for about an hr give or take. They had so much fun and Conner thought he was in heaven. We were glad it was a nice night and not too cold. After we finished TT we went to Wendy's for dinner. It was a great ending to a great night.

Loaded in the car ready to go.

Yummy food at Wendy's

Enjoying a fry, pure happiness

The loot

The best part, the sucker before bed.

The preschool party

I couldn't go to Kaily's preschool Halloween carnival this year b/c I had a prior appointment, so I sent Clint. It gave him a taste of what I go through everyday, he did a good job and Conner even behaved himself for the most part. Kaily has so much fun!

Trunk or Treat

This year at our ward Trunk or Treat it was snowing so we had it inside. The kids had a great time and Conner just loved being able to run around the gym. Kaily couldn't get enough of the cupcake walk, which she came away with 2 cupcakes and she would have had more if I hadn't stopped her. She LOVED eating the doughnuts of the string and playing with her friends. Clint couldn't join us this year b/c he had to wk. He was greatly missed, mostly by me. I don't know how women do this with more than two kids.

Stuff

Still no new pics, I've been slacking on that end. I just wanted to jot down a few very cute things that have happened lately. Kaily had her first Primary program yesterday and she did such a cute job. She wrote her own talk and then gave it very clear and very precise. We are very proud of her. She is also going through books at school like crazy. I have to get her a new one before school even starts again the next week. Conner is LOVING it! Kaily will read to him and he enjoys the books as much as Kaily enjoys reading them. They have been so cute to watch. Her writing is getting better and so is her drawing. She is always adding detail to things now.

Conner is talking A LOT more than he used to. Just last night he got frustrated b/c we wouldn't let him out of his highchair so he puts his hand on his forehead and says, "Oh Man, That's IT!" It was SO cute! I can't believe how fast they are growing.

Clint took some great pics of his new projects that he just finished, I just have to get the camera from him to DL them. SO, when I do get my camera back I'll post them too.

We have been battling a cold in our house. The kids and I got it last week, we are on the mend and doing better. With feeling better comes a better wkout for me. My life is kind of consumed by losing weight and eating right these days. I spend a lot of time at the gym and thanks to a new cookbook I'll be able to cook healthier too.

Other than all that not much changes around here, except for the kids. Have a great day!
