Chubby Porter

We are looking forward to putting on a few pounds this weekend, but it looks like Porter will have to lay off the pies and mashed potatoes, sorry Porter :) It might bump him into level 3 Obesity, or in the 101 percentile for his age group.

There once was a little girl,
A little girl who loved to twirl.
She would go round and round
until she would fall down.
Oh, what a silly little girl.

Do I thank you enough?

Daniel, no, it's not father's day or your birthday, but it should be Daniel day! Thank you for all you do! You helped me out a lot this last week, and I want you to know how much I appreciate you.
You are a great dad!

You help me with all the house stuff (like cleaning the stove, and the metal things, without me asking)!

You are a great teacher!

You make our yard look great!

thanks Daniel I love you!


Badger Mountain- 11/10/08

Last week we went on a hike to Badger Mountain. It was a beautiful view overlooking the Columbia River (and the temple, can you see it?).

Porter slept most of the hike!

Eliza drank out of Dad's camel-pack, she wouldn't even stop for a picture.

Beware Ye Pacifiers
thanks for all the helpful advice about getting rid of Eliza's pacifier
she still grabs Porter's every now and then for a little suck, but one look from mom and she gives it back

WCP:
they have started to catch on and decide to uncuddle when they see me whip out the camera

What's on your Thanksgiving menu?

I love thanksgiving! This is my first year doing it alone , yes a whole turkey intimidates me! I have some family coming so I would love it to be nice! What's on your Thanksgiving menu. I guess I should also say that I am a simplifier! I do most things in the simplest degree. I would love any tips, comments and/or menu ideas! Thanks!

Curious

I was tagged. 4th picture folder. 4th picture. I was curious. I found Eliza's blessing day picture, her little rose lips. I couldn't resist posting it. (It looks like Porter with a bonnet.)
