Playing all sorts of things. Like catch up (on blogging)

I was talking to one of my greatest friends/ and mission companion, Sara Maxwell, tonight and she mentioned that she was going to spend some time and write on her journal. I though..'I need to day that.' Both my blag and my personal paper journal have been ignored. I feel that I am always behind and so many things are happening. Preslee is just growing and learning so fast and I want to document it all and don't want to miss anything.

In October We went at a family to Little Bear Bottoms and played on the hay stacks. Preslee seemed to love it. She really is a little monkey. She climbs on everything and shows no fear. It makes me nervous and gives me reason to never leave her side.
Matt played with Preslee on the hay.  You know, cause he doesn't have a large belly that makes things awkward or anything. 

Jumping on the Mattress. We are thinking of getting Preslee a little tramp for Christmas. That way she can do something to get her energy out while we are inside from the cold and with her little new born sister. And plus she just loves to jump.


At Grandpa and Grandma Brown's house swinging on the big kid swing for the first time.

Preslee's bedroom update. We bought cute little lamps at target that look so good in her room. You can't really tell in this picture.

Halloween 
Our little miss was a duck for Halloween. I would have dressed her up in something more cutesy and girly but she just loves and adores ducks. So I just had do. I think she loved being a duck too. Her head piece would not stay on her head right and kept falling into her eyes. That was the only fall back. I am just surprised and lucky that she actually kept in on her head. And since I am just the housewife of the year and all, I have not found a storage bin to put our Halloween stuff in (all 5 items). So her duck costume is in her drawer and she likes to pull it out and put it on every once in a while. That is find by me. 
Trunk-or-treating at the church

We did our Annual Halloween stop at the Miller's and stayed a bit. Preslee loved helping pass out candy.

Matt: Beaver-ite (Ok so he says he was supposed to be a farmer but to me he looked like.. I don't even know even now. Without the hat and teeth he just looked like normal Matt).
Me: a Witch (obviously)
Little miss: Duck

I made my hat and I loved it.... now how to store it?

Scanning over her candy at the end of the night. 
(In order to keep her hat on we had to tuck it behind her ears)
Whenever Preslee goes to the Doctor with me they always giver her a dumb dumb sucker. She loves them. So that is what she chose when she would pick out her candy? A sucker. In my head I'm thinking: I will eat more of this candy than I am going to let her eat (I'm nice I know) so she should be choosing the chocolate and good stuff. Not the Dumb Dumbs. Lets just say that we have a bowl full of dumb dumb at our house. 

Playing ball with dad at another tailgate party




Grandma Jessie's chair update:
She is done!!!!
We bought cushions from the DI and cut them open to use their batting. That stuff is so expensive at the stores! 






Visiting Dad at work:






A Quick Project:
My sister Let me have these crib bumpers to put in the temporary crib that we are putting up for Preslee until she is ready for a toddler. I washed them and they did not survive the wash. The batting in them just crumpled up and they lost their shape.
But I loved the material and I didn't want to just throw them away. So I made little pillows out of them. 
I still don't know how I feel about them 


The Long one is nice to have around because it is a great support for my big round belly when I am sitting or laying on the couch.


Eating Popcorn with mom

She was putting the popcorn in my mouth so fast I could barely chew fast enough. It was making me laugh. She is good at sharing.



Whew Looks like I am semi caught up.
