Family Pics

Well, we had these family pictures taken the end of September... I thought maybe I would finally put some up!!!












Livie is growing like a weed. She is talking like crazy.. she cracks us up with some of the things she says. I don't think I ever posted this story so I will now... about a month ago, she was eating a sandwich for lunch and had shoved a huge piece of bred in her mouth. I told her "Liv, you've got to chew." She replied "I know" with as much attitude you would expect from a teenager. I am kinda nervous when she actually is a teenager. Right now her favorite thing to tell me is "No way" when I ask her to do anything. This last month she has fallen in love with the Backyardigans. If you don't know what they are, they are a cartoon on NickJr. They are pretty cute. She would never sit and watch anything but now she begs to watch them. She calls them "QR" because she has an ABC book with the Backyardigans and those are her favorite letters to sing. Is it bad that every once in awhile I will turn an episode on so I can actually get something done? :( Oh well I guess.

Casey and I have about 3 weeks of school left and then it is Christmas vacation!! I am so excited. We will both be done in May. I can't believe the end is in sight. I found out where I am student teaching, it's at Lewis and Clark, 2nd grade, with Mrs. Hillyer. Anybody know her? I am meeting with her on Wednesday, hopefully we get along since we will be spending a LOT of time together next semester!!

Cute as a bug!!

Well, Halloween has came and gone and did we have fun!!! Little Livie made the cutest chubby ladybug. She did not know what was going on but thought it was pretty neat when Mommy put makeup on her and then later people gave her candy!! We went and trick or treated about two blocks in Old Town and then went to the trunk or treat at our ward. Livie got the hang of it and realized these random people were giving her candy!! It was so cute to see her put it in her little bucket, except suckers, she really likes them and would try to put them straight in her mouth. Even though we were only out about 2 hours total, she was pretty tired by the end and just sat down in the middle of the parking lot watching all the kids. Overall we had fun, and Mommy and Daddy have been enjoying some extra candy around the house!!
