Heidi and Hailey

The girls running around getting ready for the BYU game to start
Showing how big they are
Watching a church movie together
Sitting by some pumpkins

Heidi is such a cute girl. She often tells us, "Hailey can't have this. She's allergic."
One Saturday we were watching a movie and when the credits started playing she said, "Ok, it's done. Now let's watch football."
Heidi and Hailey love to go around the house and say "Boo" after jumping out from somewhere. I asked her what else we say on Halloween and she said "trick-or-treat". I was very impressed. I asked her where she learned that and she said, "From Dora and Boots and the little monster." (A Halloween Dora movie that her grandma recently gave her)

Hailey finishing a puzzle, one of her favorite things to do. I can now leave her with a puzzle and she will do the whole thing all by herself.

Hailey is a little bundle of energy who is getting smarter each day. She loves making animal noises. Right now her favorites are a snake, dog, cow, elephant and frog. But really, she just likes to make animal sounds so her favorites change frequently.
When we had friends over a little while ago she started out by giving them a big crusty. Then, within the hour she was sitting on their laps wanting them to read her stories. She is a very friendly girl, she just needs a little while to warm up to you.
We were reading a library book, The Three Little Fish and the Big Bad Shark and every time the shark would come on the page Hailey would cover her mouth and get really loud. And she knew she was cute because then she would laugh.
Another book we were reading had an animal upside down on the first page. She started to pull the book away from me so I just thought she wanted to look at it without me reading it to her. She turned the book so the animal was right side up and gave the book back to me to read. I thought it was so cute!

End of August: Kindergarten and Sports

Hap kept helping me take care of the Memmott's yard. Their raspberries are amazing and have made me look into getting plants. I took the three little kids to the doctor for well visits. They are all healthy and growing. Brynlee was 49 inches tall and weighed 51 pounds, which is below 1% for her age. Lacey was 47.5 inches tall and weighed 43 pounds, about 10th percentile. Hap was 44 inches tall (25%) and 36 pounds (3%). I tried making cookies with all the sunflower seeds we got in lunches but they wouldn't really stick in the cookies and the kids wouldn't eat them that way. I thought they were good. Hap enjoyed his last morning home with just us by falling on my bed. He started kindergarten and loved it. Brynlee and Lacey were happy to show him how to ride the bus and how to get to class. He had a great day and told me all about it. I found squash bugs and eggs at the Memmott's so I helped them out by getting rid of what I could find. Their yard is so pretty; look at the...

Games and Birthday Parties

Hap loves school and comes home with the cutest projects. I am getting lots of stuff from the garden; I used the tomatoes to make taco soup. Cougar had a game in Orem so Hap played on this cool playground when we dropped him off. We got there a bit early so Cougar helped Hap for a while and then we left and went to the girls' soccer games. It was rainy. Cougar had a SWAT training for practice. Heidi had a Thursday Night Lights game against Provo. She did great. I found this cute picture on the school's Instagram the next day. I basically taught Heidi math again; we had many late nights doing math and I was so grateful when it was something I liked. Because Heidi's game was on a Thursday, we were able to have Lacey's party on Friday and Hap's party on Saturday. It was a busy weekend but it worked for us. Lacey invited her friends over for a rainbow party. Almost all of her friends were available that night so it made it super fun for her. Her friends that came are Ad...

Last Week of School 2021-2022

Hap was thrilled to have a couple friends come play while their parents were at high school graduation. Heidi was one of very few students to attend school that last week, it was mostly parties. Baseball started. They're not the best team but they've made more plays in one game than his team did all of last year so it's a lot more fun to watch. With just a few days left with just Hap at home we went on a trip to Costco and drew pictures. Heidi finally got her permit. We didn't leave enough time for her to retake the test the first time she took it (since they close at 5), and after realizing there were questions about points and insurance she read the handbook and then easily passed. Hailey picked the fabric and sewed this bag. My garden is growing and looks more green thanks to these tomato plants from my parents. My pumpkins are doing well, like usual, and had the cutest butterfly flying around them. Brynlee and Lacey made cards and crafts for their wonderful teachers...
