Halloween 2009!

Halloween was GREAT this year! Alexis was dressed as a butterfly :) And Nicole got to go trick or treating!

Kelly and Nicole came up on Wednesday for Kelly and Keri's b-day! We got to have dinner with them on Wednesday night and I made them a cake :)

Thursday we went with Kelly to get Nicoles pic's taken..

Friday the rest of my family got here.. (except Ami).. cause she's a bum..

We all hung out on Friday night.. and I went and got Alexis' pics taken. We made pizza and watched the Jazz Game!

Saturday the girls went shopping.. and just hung out.. and then we went and got the girls ready! Alexis had SO much fun trick or treating.. Jonathon and her were practically racing to get candy! Jonathon got a whole bag and so did Alexis :) I'm so glad we got to be with both my family and Jonathon's family on Halloween. Alexis and Aleah had the same costume.. And they sure looked cute! After trick or treating we came back to our house and made Spaghetti for dinner! I love when my family comes up to visit! There is just nothing better.. Hopefully Ami gets up here soon! I hope everyone had a Happy Halloween :)

Funny "Alexis" sayings!

"My belly is hurting."
"We don't say that word!"
* "I watch carchons" That is her word for Cartoons!
* "Is my Happy Birthday coming?"
"I can't dance, I have a bandaid on."
* "Oh my gosh, it's not working!"
* "I want to sing my ABCDEFG's" instead of just ABC's
* "That's perfectly fine."
* "I can't do it, I'm to little."
*"What happened to me?"
*"I love you too much!"
While she was going potty... She said "I pushed the poop out!"
*Don't worry about me!
*Well what does that mean Mom?"
* I watch my ABC's mom, I watch my ABC's!
*Alexis - "Mom are you ok" Me - "I have a really bad headache." Alexis - "Don't die mom, okay."
*I watch my movie mom.. Okay
*No way mom, now way..
*Jonathon says "What book do you want to read?" Alexis says "Let me think about it dad."
*"Daddy you a boy, shut door." as Jonathon was going to the bathroom.
*"I did it mom, it's all my fault."
*That's cool mom!

"Before I was a Mom, I never tripped over toys, or forgot words to a lullaby. I didn't worry whether or not my plants were poisonous. I never thought about immunizations. Before I was a Mom, I had never been puked on. Pooped on. Chewed on. Peed on. I had complete control of my mind and my thoughts. I slept all night. Before I was a Mom I never held down a screaming child so doctors could do tests or give shots. I never looked into teary eyes and cried. I never got gloriously happy over a simple grin. I never sat up late hours at night watching a baby sleep. Before I was a Mom I never held a sleeping baby just because I didn't want to put them down. I never felt my heart break into a million pieces when I couldn't stop the hurt. I never knew that something so small could affect my life SO much. I never knew that I could love someone so much. I never knew I would love being a Mom. Before I was a Mom I didn't know the feeling of having my heart outside my body. I didn't know how special it could feel to feed a hungry baby. I didn't know that bond between a mother and her child. I didn't know that something so small could make me feel so important and happy. Before I was a Mom I had never gotten up in the middle of the night every 10 minutes to make sure all was okay. I had never known the warmth, the joy, the love, the heartache, the wonderment, or the satisfaction of being a Mom. I didn't know I was capable of feeling so much, before I was a Mom."
