Something good happens each day. Here's what
happened in October 2012:
Mon
10/1/12: We hunted for witches at Gardner
Village
Tue
10/2/12: I was very pleased to learn that my mother bought airline tickets to
visit me in November! I am thrilled!
Wed
10/3/12: Lizzy, David, and I had a giggle-fest tonight at bedtime. David
crawled onto Lizzy's bed, sat on top of her legs, and clapped his hands while
we sang songs. Lizzy was surprisingly tolerant of her brother invading her
personal space, and clearly thought the whole scenario was very funny.
Thu
10/4/12: My sweet baby boy turned a year old today! We drove to Wheeler Farm
tonight and took some cute pictures of him. We had some homemade cake when we
came back from taking photos and sang "Happy Birthday" to David.
Fri
10/5/12: Brad and I watched "Temple
Grandin
Sat
10/6/12: General Conference was fabulous today! There were some incredible
announcements and talks. My favorites were President Uchtdorf's and Elder
Cook's talks. The biggest announcement we heard today was that the missionary
age requirements were lowered. Missionaries can now serve at age 18 for young
men, and 19 for young women.
Sun
10/7/12: We teamed up with the Bruce-Clan to take Family Photos tonight. Little
Lizzy was a busy girl, and wouldn't hold still for very many photos.
Mon
10/8/12: We made tissue ghosts and caramel apples for Family Home evening
tonight. After FHE, we watched "The Avengers." I'd say we had a
pretty fun night.
Tue 10/9/12: David had a very positive one-year doctor appointment. He appeared to have a great time socializing with his doctor, and he handled all the shots and blood test very well. The best news was that he is no longer anemic and he gained weight.
Wed 10/10/12: Brad, Scott, Emma, and I all got our flu shots at Brad's work. The little ones tagged along, and were both very cute for Brad's co-workers. We had homemade beef stew tonight for dinner. It was delicious and a big hit amongst the children and adults alike. More Merlin tonight, too!
Thu 10/11/12: I began crocheting a red hood for Lizzy's Halloween costume. Looking cute!
Fri 10/12/12: I Love Yarn Day! I bought a bunch of yarn at Michael's, since many brands were on sale today. I worked more on Lizzy's costume.
Sat 10/13/12: We didn't go anywhere today! It was so nice staying at home, watching shows, getting some chores done, fitting in time for some exercise, and crocheting Lizzy's costume.
Sun 10/14/12: I loved it when David tried to say kitty today. He couldn't hit all the sounds and instead made a hissing sound with his tongue and teeth. He likes Sushi a lot.
Mon 10/15/12: We had homemade pumpkin bread with homemade honey-butter while watching Harry Potter for FHE tonight.
Tue 10/16/12: I crocheted Brad's beard for his costume today. The kids thought it was hilarious!
Wed 10/17/12: I got done a lot of shopping today. Lizzy, David, and I had lunch while we were at Sam's Club, then we drove over to Entheos to pick up the Bruce-Clan and take them home. Lizzy was so tired by the late afternoon that she fell asleep wrapped up in a warm blanket inside the coat closet.
Thu 10/18/12: Lizzy came downstairs wearing Emma's beautiful red sparkly dress early this morning. It was much too big for her, but Lizzy did not care. "I'm wearing Emma's dress," she said in sheer delight. "I'm going to the ball!"
Fri 10/19/12: David took his first step today! He's getting to be a big boy! Dan, Marnee, and the girls came over for dinner tonight. We haven't seen them in a while and it was nice catching up with them. We had taco salad and pumpkin pie.

Sat
10/20/12: Had a nice day at home today. Brad got to spend some time typing up
ideas for his book, and I enjoyed some time editing photos and crocheting. We
also watched three episodes of Merlin and ate chocolate brownies. It was a nice
day.
Sun
10/21/12: Bruce and Loralee gave us a surprise visit tonight and brought us
chocolate chip cookies. That was nice.
Mon
10/22/12: We had a fun FHE tonight. I made some Dirt and jello worms while the
kids watched "The Nightmare Before Christmas." It was a big hit.
We'll have to do it again next year.
Tue
10/23/12: Emma, Lizzy, and I went to church for a Halloween carnival for the
Activity Days girls. I was in charge of the "Pin the Spider on the
Web" booth. It was such a great activity. The girls seemed to have had a
lot of fun.
Wed 10/24/12: My little ones were my highlight today. I made chicken soup for dinner tonight. Lizzy took one look at her bowl full of soup, raised her spoon and said: "What's this? Frog's Breath?" I laughed out loud, it was so hilarious! And David learned how to wave and say, "bye-bye," tonight. Made my heart happy. He also began taking more steps on his own today. He's growing up fast.

Thu
10/25/12: David said "Pa-Pa" clear as a bell early this morning. He
said it over and over again, too, each time he saw his papa. I love my little
boy.
Fri 10/26/12: Lizzy has an incredible talent for remembering lines from movies and lyrics to songs. She cracks me up sometimes. This morning she was playing with her toys right next to me and began speaking in her most evil villain voice, saying: "Well, well, well... what have we here?"
Sat 10/27/12: I made chicken broccoli casserole for dinner tonight. It reminded me of my grandmother's Christmas recipe, which was one of my most favorite meals as a child.

Sun
10/28/12: My Sunbeams were very reverent in class today. They seemed to enjoy
my lesson, and I felt I did a good job presenting it.
Mon
10/29/12: FHE Tonight: Eyeballs and Spooky Spaghetti for dinner, spiders for
dessert, and we had fun cutting up pumpkins tonight.
Tue
10/30/12: I baked some pumpkin seeds today. Tasted yummy! And I finished
crocheting another hat for my mother. 11 down, 9 to go!
Wed 10/31/12: We had a fun and happy Halloween. The weather was perfect for trick-or-treating. We enjoyed spending time with the cousins and walking around our neighborhood. Lizzy was very enthusiastic about trick-or-treating this year. She looked adorable as Red Riding Hood.
