Little (Stinker) Princess

Happy Birthday Sadie!!!

For Halloween we got Cali a Snow White princess costume. She got to wear it for the first time yesterday because her friend had a fairy princess birthday party. I don't know if it was the dress or what, but Cali was acting like a total "princess" yesterday - and I don't mean in the good way. She was being such a stinker! She did have her cute moments, though, so at least I got some good pictures. She's cute, so we keep her even when she has her three-year-old moments :-). All her pretty jewelry and "glass slippers" were thanks to grandma Weeks who gave it to her because she went on the potty. We'll see if that will be enough motivation to get her to do it again, but I'm not going to hold my breath. Oh, and if you're wondering about the huge bruise on her head, she ran right into my parents foosball table and got the biggest goose egg! Luckily it went down because it was really big. Don't you love when things like that happen right before they're suppose to look cute for pictures, or princess parties.

Precious Moments

In case you haven't had enough cuteness, here's some pics I just had to share. What can I say, I have cute kids! JR's not bad lookin' either :-).

Isaac's Babbles

On September 27th Isaac made his first babble sounds: "Ba-Ba" and "Da-Da". Since then he hasn't stopped! He mostly says Da-Da, and when he gets going he doesn't stop. It's the cutest thing, so we just had to show all of you. This video was taken three days after he first started to babble. He's got such a low voice and sometimes he gets really serious and into his babbling. He's such a boy!

Old Friends ROCK!!!

It's sad to say that I haven't kept in contact with my girlfriends from when I was younger as much as I would have liked to. Luckily, that can be remedied by a girls luncheon! Yeah! It was so much fun getting together with old friends that I never get to see anymore. We've decided that getting together is definitely something we'll have to continue as frequently as possible. I'm just glad everyone wanted to get together as much as I did! Hopefully we'll be able to get even more friends to go next time because there were still some friends that we missed. For my friends out there, I'm glad to know we're still here for each other even if we don't get to see each other a lot. Thanks for the chats and ice cream :-).

Aaron and Angel's Wedding

JR's younger brother Aaron got married to Angel on June 23rd, 2007. I went just over six years as the only "outsider" into the Peterson family, but now I finally have a sister-in-law. YEAH!!! It was such a beautiful day that I had to post the pictures. Better late than never I guess! Cali absolutely loved dressing up and seeing Angel in her wedding dress. It was all she could talk about for quite a while. The only down side is that Angel and Aaron live in Idaho, so we don't see them very often. We couldn't be happier for them, though, and are so glad they found each other!

Aspen Grove

On Sunday (Sept. 16th) we decided to go for a drive up Provo Canyon to look at the leaves changing color. The leaves hadn't all changed yet, but it was still gorgeous. Plus, the weather was perfect! We went up to Aspen Grove and walked around. I've been up there a couple of times before because my uncle works up there and we've had Thanksgiving dinner twice in one of the huge lodges they have. It was so much fun because they have a playgound and the coolest little pioneer village ever. Cali had a blast playing in all the miniture houses and Isaac loved being outside. When we got home JR and I remembered that it was our seven year anniversary of our first date! Fun Snow College memories :-). It was a great Sunday afternoon. Plus, it made for some awesome pictures, if I do say so myself!

Four Months Old and Going Strong!

Isaac had his four month appointment on the fifth of September and he weighed 17 lbs. 9 oz.! His doctor just laughed and said that he's doing "quite well". We're going to have to buy him a football soon so he can practice for his future career. He's just a solid kid! My muscles haven't quite caught up to his weight. It about kills me trying to cart him around in his carrier. But even holding him without his carrier is still a challenge! I need to go to the gym :-).

Antimony Reunion - Labor Day Weekend

Every year my whole extended family on my mom's side gets together over Labor Day weekend for a huge reunion at my grandparents ranch in Antimony Utah. It was so much fun this year seeing everyone. I think the highlight, though, would have to have been seeing Cali play with her cousin Brianne. This was the first time they'd spent so much time together and it was the cutest thing! They're definitely two peas in a pod. Isaac was really good too, but probably because people were holding him the whole time :-). My grandparents got to see him for the first time, and they of course thought he was a cutie. My grandma couldn't figure out who he looked like though. She said that there's got to be at least one kid in every family that looks like the milk man :-). So far, in my extended family consisting of over 100 people, Isaac weighed the most at birth. Crazy!

Here's a cute video of Isaac at the reunion:

Here's a funny video my bro-in-law Jason (Brianne's dad) took of Cali and Brianne "reading". Yes, my daughter is the loud one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zEifZ5LUF5s
