Punkinaze Fun!

We had fun last night! We went to the Punkinaze "Christmas in September" fundraiser had a great time and ate some delicious food. Rob took Blakeley down the slide a bunch of times. At first she was just chill like whatever but after they went down a few times she was beggin to go down again and again. When Rob would get to the top of the slide with her she would be jumpin up and down in his arms just ancy to go down the slide again! It was so cute, Rob was so excited cause now he has a good excuse to go down the slide :)

Look at her grin!

Grandma let Blake hunt for some candy in the corn!

I have a new Trick and a new Look!

My New Trick....

Look out my little monster is Walking!!!

My New Look...

If you look close I have some pretty new ears!!!

I have been bad Blake started walking a couple of weeks ago and I haven't gotten around to posting it. Maybe because she is into EVERYTHING and I haven't had time :) She is so big and so brave. She is doing so good now, she can pivot around and head wherever she wants. She loves to walk and it is so cute to watch!

Ok so disregard the outfit in these pictures she is missing her skirt and obviously her shirt. I was also trying something new with her hair. I can get it into a teeny tiny pony tail on the top but she hates it and its hard but that is the deal with her hair but really this is all about the EARS! I finally got her ears pierced. I have been meaning to do it forever. I heard about a doctors office that does them and I thought that would be very sanitary and so we went for it! Blake did really good, she cried I think only cause she was scared because the minute I picked her up she was fine! We think she looks SOOO cute with her new earrings.

First Family Photo Shoot!

Cathy worked a bit of magic once again! She wanted to try taking some pictures at Antelope Island and asked us to be her subjects :). Which Im sure she regrets now because Blakeley wasn't all that cooperative! Anyway of course as always Cathy got some keepers! Here are a few that turned out despite Blakeley begging for crackers!

Our Scary Weekend

Our sweet little Boo got really sick last week, she ended up in the hospital with a really bad UTI, which was actually good news because when the doctor admitted her we thought it could be something much worse. It was so sad to have to watch Blake go through all the tests they did on her. She was really sick that first day and really scared us because she had a fever of 105! They thought she might have meningitis, so Rob and I were very worried. We had to stay 2 nights in the hospital to make sure all of her tests and cultures came back negative. It ended up just being a UTI and we were so grateful that she was feeling better within just a few days. Now we are home and Blake is back to her crazy, busy, hillarious self! We are so glad she is better and we never want to have to see her go through any of that again! Here are some pictures we took while we were stuck in the hospital.

Right after all of her tourture!
You can see in her eyes she didn't feel good

I thought this was TOO precious

Starting to feel better...

Yeah! Im home, and they took that darn thing out of my arm too!All Better!

Maddee really is one of the most beautiful people I know! She is such a doll and we have a picture of her and Kade together just like this from about every year of their lives. Something was different this time though when we took the picture. Kade is for the first time TALLER than Maddee, and he is pretty handsome too!

This one is for you Maddee!

Hi, Maddee posted a picture of me on her blog where I look retarded literally. So I thought I would retrun the favor! Love ya Mattsie!

wEbeR cOuNty FaIR!

Blakeley had her first Weber County Fair experience! I took her to see the animals Grannie and Kader came along and we met Lily there! It was a lot of fun to see Blake and Lily's faces they loved the animals and just wouldn't take their eyes off of them. Blake and Lily checkin out the Goats!

I just thought that face was precious!

Snugglin Grannie!

Our cute little monkey's.

They wouldn't sit still or pay attention long enough to get a decent shot!

Bear Lake Part 2

We went to Bear Lake for our Costley Family reunion last weekend and naturally it was a lot of fun for all. It was Blakes first camp out in a tent and she did pretty good, we got way cold at night and so she woke up screaming a few times, but overall I think she thought the tent was one big toy. Blakeley and Tayah have matching outfits and swimsuits so we had to do a few photo shoots of them! Tayah wanted to put her arm around Blakeley and apparently she didn't like that too much. I think the pics of her balling are just as cute as the others though! Saddest Face EVER!

Blake's 9 mo Photos

Cathy took Blakeley's pictures again and I was really worried about them because Blake did not cooperate, I was certian that there wouldn't be any good ones. But Cathy proved me wrong as always, she does such a great job and they turned out AWESOME! She has a slide show of some of Blakes pictures check them out at...
