Thanksgiving in Zion

Its cold!

I just can't throw enough rocks in the river!

Digging in the dirt is fun too!

Throwing snow balls and watching them land below!

Charlotte had so much fun! She even made it part way through a few hikes with us. She got so used to wearing two pants and 4 shirts she keeps asking me to wear two pants at home.

All I want for Christmas is...

a pillow pet!

Talk about good marketing. Charlotte is obsessed with these things. She has left 2 stores crying because I wouldn't buy her a dumb pillow pet! I keep telling her that daddy is going to get her one and she definitely remembers. We don't really buy Christmas presents but I guess we will be this year!

Jeans Hater!

So for the past few months Charlotte has decided she hates jeans of any variety. It all started when I was getting dressed and my pants were too tight. I would put a pair of jeans on and then take them off and try another. If you didn't' know I am pregnant, and I am not one of the crazy skinny people who can wear there same jeans there entire pregnancy. Anyhow, I guess she decided that since my jeans were too tight hers must be too. As soon as I get the jeans out of the drawer she says my pants too tight! So for the past couple of months I have been bribing her into wearing jeans occasionally. Today she decided she wasn't gonna wear the jeans for anything. She was so desperate she figured out how to get her leggings on all by herself. I was very annoyed but at the same time impressed with her strong will. Looks like I am gonna have to be ok with her wearing leggings all winter!

First Day of Gymnastics Class

Today was Charlotte's official first day of gymnastics class. This past weekend I picked up this adorable little leotard for her. I also got her a some zebra shorts. She had a lot of fun. She wasn't the best listener but she did well. She loves the trampoline and pit. She was really good at crawling across the parallel bars and stretching.

Blue!

Charlotte was Blue from Blue's Clues. It is her favorite show. She loved trick or treating. She tried to go into the first 3 houses we went to but after that she got the hang of it. We went around the block once and she came home with a full bucket!

Fall Festival

Charlotte rode a train, saw a bunch of animals, played on the playground, and ran in a mini corn maze. It was a blast. It is just down the street so we may go again!

Splash Pad

After storytime Friday we went to the splash pad at the mall. Charlotte loves water! She likes to sit on top of the water. Also after a while she decided to pretend to take a nap on the steps! Dork!
