I'M A BIG BOY NOW!!

Tate has graduated to the "big car seat" and he is loving it. Mommy and Daddy are too. It really is fun to be able to look back at him and see what he is doing. He also is a pro walker now. (video below) He has been doing four or five steps for about a month, but now he is walking all over and loving it. He does walks like a drunken Frankenstein at times and makes everyone laugh, but he is really catching on to the walking rage. We sure love this little boy!



Grandma and Grandpa came with us up the canyon the other night to see the leaves. We had a fun little picnic on a cute little bridge. The little stream was exciting to Tate and he would have loved to have gotten in, but wasn't so lucky. We visited and enjoyed the beautiful nature.



Here I am walking like a big boy!

Charee, I got a little scared after talking to you yesterday so I got the tracking thing and removed our last name from the entire blog (I Think). What scares me most is on the tracking thing where it says that I am in Franklin, ID. In a city of 500 people it wouldn't be very hard to find exactly where we are, so hopefully without a last name they will have to look for atleast five minutes to track us down. Love the new photos. Tate is so cute. have a good day. -Molly

What a big boy! Now he's going to think he rules the whole world... and not just mom and dad's world.

As for Ryan paint mess, of course I was pretty ticked but after I dug him out from under the bed... tee hee... :) I pretty much calmed down. It was done on a Sunday so we missed sacrament to clean it all up. We scrubbed and scrubbed, borrowed a steam cleaner and then scrubbed some more. Most of it came out and when we moved out they never even charged us a dime. I was so relieved cause I thought we would have to replace the whole carpet in the room and down the hallway. I laugh everytime I look at the picture of Ryan covered in paint though. Love my guys even when they destroy everything in site.

Charee- Make sure to send me an invite to your blog. bjkk2007@yahoo.com Thanks!!!

Annie said...

Okay, the reason you couldn't pull up my "Yipee" post is because I deleted it. Sorry! I meant for it to be posted to another blog and for some reason it was put on mine. Long story short - it should have been totally erased. If you would like I can go in and create a new post with the title "Yipee!"

Cristi Lou said...

You commented on my blog that you didn't want to go to all of the stores to get the stuff. The guy that came to us showed us how to do it at just one store. Not so hard that way.
