Super Rocker girl!

This year was Layla's first year of really getting to enjoy Halloween. We first started off the night with a little party at Paul's parents house. It was awesome to see everyone dressed up. Dave and Ramona gave out prizes for best costume. Paul won third place and got a $15 gift card to Star Bucks. After the party we headed to our house. Paul and Layla went Trick or Treating together and I stayed home to give out candy. According to Paul Layla had such a great time. He said she loved knocking on the doors. She would get sad if people just put candy on the doorstep because she didn't get to knock. I think those two were gone for about an 1 1/2 hours. She was a trooper and walked to all the houses. And boy did she come home with a nice big bag of candy! It was a fun year for Halloween. We can't wait for next year!

{Haircut}

Layla got her first hair cut ever today! Kami did such an awesome job at making it look fabulous. Layla held pretty still for the most part. She did want to turn and see what she was doing, but what kid doesn't?

{Pretty}

I guess I have not done a very good job at keeping my make-up away from Layla. I was cleaning up the house and she comes over and says, "Pretty"! Repeating it over and over. She keeps me on my toes, but there are some of those times where she is just too quick!

{Picture worth a laugh}

{Randon in August}

My momma came for a quick last minute visit to Utah last week. It was so fun to get to spend time with her even though it was short. It always makes me miss her more when she leaves. If you don't know, my mom and dad still live in South Dakota. They can't travel as much because they are taking care of my Grandma Lueck. So it is a awesome treat when they do come! Mom brought freshly pick corn from the farm. We had enough corn that we were able to freeze about 10 bags!! Fresh frozen corn is the BEST! Thanks mom for all the eating out you treated us to and of course the shopping! Love you lots :)


These other photos I just wanted to post. They are from Bear Lake in July. We got lucky and they turned out super cute. I think they are frame worthy. In the middle photo Layla doesn't have a black eye....she just got a hold of my mascara. She did a pretty good job applying it and the fact that she is only 20 mo.

{Bear Lake '09}

This was Layla's first trip to Bear Lake where she could actually enjoy all the fun stuff. She is a little waterbug. I think she could stay in the water and sun all day long if we would let her. She loves to splash around and dig in the sand and just people watch. I'm so glad that she enjoyed the boat so much. I wasn't sure that she would like it, but she always proves me wrong and just had a blast...especially on the tube. She would clap and wave at me from the water....its was just too cute! She is afraid of almost nothing. We can't wait to go back and have lots more fun! Thanks everyone who was there for making it a great time.

{ The Hoogle Zoo}

Layla had so much fun at the zoo. She screamed with joy the whole time. She also called all the animals "doggie". We will definitely go back soon!

HILARIOUS!!!

Oh look a baby blessing! Would you say we had a plethora of baby blessings? (obscure 3 amigos reference!)

This last month has been packed full of baby blessings in Paul's family. This last Sunday we had two back-to-back and Layla barely made it. We left Cyndi's (Paul's sister) house after the last one and it didnt take more than a few minutes for Layla to "crash" (understatement!). We decided to have some fun and see just how tired she was. This video was the result...ENJOY!!!

Did I mention we have the funniest little girl ever? This video below was later that evening. Warning: This is the result of way too many Whoppers (Malt candy not Burger King!).

{Toilets and Cleaning}

Layla's new fun to play in thing is the toilet. It is so gross. I now have to remember to shut all the bathroom doors or I'll have a huge water mess coming my way. The first photo you see she is cleaning the floor... so sweet of her, but its with the toilet water!!!! I couldn't stop laughing it just so funny what these little people do.

{Playing Outside}

Layla absolutely loves to be outside, even when it is freezing cold. It is so fun to see her little body running around playing and learning more things she can do. When this little one has to come inside she usually has a melt down of crying and trying to pry the door open. Its too funny.

It's been awhile!

Sorry, it has taken me so long to blog. Layla is just growing up fast and is starting to be independent. We tried the other day on letting her feed herself. She did so awesome! I was surprised at how unmessy she was...
