Callie's first birthday bracelet

I have had a busy couple of weeks, so I am playin' catch-up again. My baby turned one. Wow! This year has flown by and I can't believe that Callie is already one. Since Halloween was on Sunday this year, we celebrated Halloween on Callie's birthday (Saturday) and then celebrated Callie's Birthday on Halloween. I had a fun time getting ready for this Birthday. The older I get the more sentimental I get and I wanted her first Birthday to be a little bit special. Callie was really cute and we had a fun time celebrating! This baby is so sweet, happy, and cuddly. She is bald, but we all know that bald is beautiful! :) She has 4 teeth, all on the bottom. She is walking and talking and she laughs a lot, sometimes it is a super cute fake laugh. She really loves her daddy and her binky. We all love to hold and hug her! What a blessing to have this baby in our family. She makes us all happy. We absolutely love this baby girl.

Halloween 2010

We had a great Halloween! The kids had a lot of fun. Halloween is one of my favorite holidays. More so now that Callie's Birthday is the day before Halloween. I love everything about Halloween except the dressing up. I'm horrible at thinking up cute costumes for my kids. However, costumes are my kids favorite thing about the holiday. Thanks to Uncle Brett and Aunt Roni, my oldest 3 kids got some awesome Mario Brothers costumes. Kyle is the little Mario and Colby is the big Mario. Paige got to be Princess Peach. We started the day off carving pumpkins, we played, went to the ward trunk or treat where Brett and Roni surprised us (we were so glad that they came down), and ended the night trick or treating to a few houses in town. It was a great day!
