Update

So, I got a little behind on the blog. Nate was harrassing me tonight because I still haven't taken my pictures off my camera since the Tuesday before Halloween! I'll try to rewind my short memory and see if I can remember what has happened in the last two weeks.

First we had our pumpkin carving festivities with my grandma and grandpa. We have been carving pumpkins with Mar and Gar since October 1997. At first it was just Nate and I, grandma, grandpa and my cousin Tesha, who was 10 years old at the time. It has now morphed into Grandma, Grandpa, my cousin Tesha, her neice (so my cousin) Shantell, Tesha's friend Jessica and her daughter Sierra, my mom, brother and his wife and daughter - Arlane, Cody, Courtney and Brinklee, Nate, myself, Kenzie and Kamryn and then whatever other friend of Tesha's that decides to pop in and carve a pumpkin. This year it was her friends and twin sisters, Saray & Iris and Iris' daughter Jasmin. Holy cow, so many people to cram into grandma's little house, but it was so much fun. My grandma and grandpa even carve pumpkins!! They are the best and are still so young at heart. I hope to be like them some day! Next, was our ward Halloween carnival. Makenzie dressed up as Hannah Montana and Kamryn was a cute pink and purple butterfly. In these pictures Kenzie doesn't look so much like Hannah Montana because she refused to wear the wig. She hated it because it made her itch. I finally talked her into wearing it Halloween day for the carnival at school.

Halloween day I went to Kenzie's school to help her with putting on her wig and chearing her on when they did their parade. That night we went to trunk or treat at our church. We had lots of fun. We ate hot dogs, chili and hot chocolate. Makenzie had so much fun with her best friend Emily. I was thinking that they were going to say "We want to go by ourselves because were big kids now," and then they surprised me when they said, "will you please walk around with us, we don't want to go by ourselves." It makes you feel good to know that you have at least one more year of a sweet innocent loving child who isn't ready to toss their mom out of the moving vehicle yet!

All in all, we had lots of fun this Halloween holiday. Hope you all did too! Maybe one of these years I'll be able to get Nate into dressing up and doing fun stuff like that (haha!)... Maybe Jim and Ryan need to work on my stubborn husband for me!

Happy 10 Months Kamryn!!

So, I am a little late. Kamryn turned 10 months old on the 14th. I can't believe she is almost 1 year old. She is changing so much. It is great, but it also makes me sad. She is probably the happiest kid when she first wakes up. She always makes me smile when I go get her out of her crib. She has learned to crawl up the stairs, which is frightening. I know she is going to fall down them one of these days because it is bound to happen. Well, here are a few pictures of her that we just had taken yesterday.

Family Pictures

So, we had family pictures taken last night. Thanks to Jessie for coming and taking them for us and for being so quick about getting them to us. She did a great job!!

More Pictures

Kamryn is almost 10 months old!!

I can hardly believe that Kamryn has been in our lives for almost 10 months. We couldn't imagine life without her. Almost every morning Makenzie says, "Mom, she's so cute. I love her!" I couldn't agree more!!

Kamryn Marie Evans was blessed

We blessed Kamryn Marie Evans on Feb. 3 and then I took her to Kiddie Kandids to have her pictures done in her blessing dress.

Kamryn Marie Evans is 3 months old!!

Happy Valentines!

Makenzie has been sick all week and missed school, but luckily Kamryn hasn't caught it from her. Kamryn is all smiles these days.

2 months old

Kamryn Marie Evans is just over 2 months old and is getting so cute and fun. She is smiling now and trying to make noises. We love her so much and Makenzie adores her.

Kamryn Marie Evans

So, after the Saturday adventure of having family pictures done, I made an actual appt to get Kamryn's newborn pictures done the following week. We couldn't get her to open her eyes, but the pictures still ended up being cute. My favorite is the snow scene.
