Our Wards Monster Mash

Since I have had a lot of time on my hands lately I decided to make Wes's Halloween costume this year. It was really fun for me to be a little creative and has inspired me to keep sewing. I already have a list of things I want to make. I don't know if it will continue in a few weeks when I have the baby but we will see.Even though he has never seen superman on TV or read a book about him he wanted to be him for Halloween. He loves being Superman aka. "the man who helps people". Wes was able to wear the costume for the first time last night when we went to our wards Halloween Party.
The party was a blast. They had lots of fun games for the kids, dinner, and a trunk or treat at the end. Wes pooped out on the trunk or treating after the first few cars he was done and wanted to go back to our car and eat the candy we had there. ps- my belly doesn't look that big in this picture but it is huge. Orrin had to help me up after we took this picture :)

When it was time to go Orrin was fussing with Wes to get him in his car seat because of course he didn't want to leave, and in the process Wes kick the car keys out of Orrin's hands. We looked for the keys for about 15 mins using the camera flash as a light.
Then Orrin said out loud "Were are the car keys?" and Wes said "In my bag Dad". Some how they ended up in Wesley's trick or treat bag. If wes didn't hear Orrin we would have been looking for them forever.

Happy Birthday Dad!!

Hope you have a nice birthday. Wish we could be there to celebrate with you! Love you lots

Family Night Treat

Grandma Mackey's Visit

Last week we were able to have Orrin's mom come and visit us here in Portland. Even though I got lost a few times taking us around town, it was so much fun. We toured Orrin's school and road the tram there.
We also walked around Washington park and checked out a Japanese garden.

It was so nice to have family around again. We loved having her here and can't wait until she gets to come back :)

Wesley's Big Boy Bed

So now that Wes's baby brother is on the way it was time for him to get a real big boy bed. He loves it! I think that he even sleeps better in it because we have not had him sneak into our bed in the middle of the night since we got it. Yeah!
