October in a Slideshow

We haven't dropped South Beach, but the last two weekends (Jason's birthday and Halloween) have totally ruined the diet, so it will be a couple more weeks before there is an update on that.

Happy Birthday Jason!

I have a 30 year old husband, how crazy is that? 30 years filled with so much greatness. I can't wait to see what the next 30 bring. Jason gets to take his birthday off, so we're going to Sea World as soon as Colby is done with preschool. It'll be great! I'll take pictures of his new svelte self. I love you Jason, happy birthday!

Jason was right...

High of 95 today. I really was enjoying the jackets.

It's Autumn Time!

The weather has cooled way down. To celebrate we wear jackets whenever we go outside, and by Eva getting sick. :( It almost feels like home, but if it was home there would probably be snow on the ground.

Week 5

-26lbs

Jason is really looking slim, he has to keep moving up notches in his belt. I guess to be fair, I now need a belt, I just don't own one.

Colby got ahold of the camera today...

We're not doing a weigh in this week, because it's not very impressive. But it's been awhile since I updated. Last week was sort of eventful.

Colby is loving preschool. Last week his teacher told me he went all day without putting his thumb in his mouth once. Love that, but it didn't last.

We got Beauty and the Beast in the mail from half.com. Eva loves it. She's watching it for the 4the or 5th time right now. Colby really likes it too.

Lilia had her 18 month check up, and since she missed her 15 month one (I didn't know they'd want to see her then since neither Colby or Eva had a 15 month appt) she had to have 4 shots PLUS the flu shot. It was pretty miserable. She went from 20th percentile to 13th in weight. It concerned me but the doctor didn't seem worried about it at all. She is jabbering all the time. It's so much fun.

I read The Hunger Games series last week. I couldn't put it down. Seriously good books. The kids and house suffered. Now I have to wait until next fall for the last one. But I did some research and found out they're making a movie out of it. (AND Fablehaven is being made into a movie-if anyone cares to know that.)

Our house is still sitting here. In our tiny ward a couple of people have told me its because they're praying for us to stay. Ha. Really, our ward is so tiny and is only getting smaller. Finding people for callings is a challenge.

Yesterday morning I heard Colby put something on the counter and I could just tell it was scissors. He cut a couple of lockets from Lilia's hair. Luckily nothing too drastic. I need to keep those scissors under constant surveillance. I would have been devastated if he'd cut a ton of her hair off.

Jason's still driving all day long it seems like. I'm excited for the day we get to start spending more time with him.
