Busy busy busy!!!
Yes, that's a handful of a fresh-baked chocolate chip cookie:

Look at how cute and innocent I am....NOT! :)
Jordan's Baptism and Eric's Baby Blessing
Jordan was baptized by Aaron on November 8th. Eric had his baby blessing the next day. We were fortunate to have many family members in attendance: Bamma and Papa, Grandma and Grandpa, Uncle Josh and Aunt Kiera, Aunt Lisa, and Aunt Tori. Thanks to them for making it an extra special weekend! We are so pleased with Jordan for making this important decision. Below are photos taken during the family visit:
Maya's 1st Tooth Loss & Skin Ailments
Maya lost her first tooth about a month ago. We had caramel apples for our FHE treat and it came right out...sorry for the gory picture. Also, she's had eczema or some kind of skin problem on a spot on the right side of her mouth as well as her eyelids (as seen in photo below), for months and months. After two regular doctor visits and creams that didn't work, we finally got her into a dermatologist who prescribed other creams. They've helped a lot, though I wonder how long she'll have to use them. 
I jokingly said that maybe we should bandage her problematic/itchy skin patches so she wouldn't touch or scratch them...had no idea she'd actually do it:

Halloween 2008
This year the kids got another ton of candy. First they went trick-or-treating at our ward's trunk-or-treat. Then they went trick-or-treating at Microsoft, and later that same night they went trick-or-treating in our neighborhood. Needless to say I threw a bunch of it out, especially since Jordan is allergic to peanuts. Maya dressed up as a southern belle, but a few people thought she was Little Bo Peep without her shepherd's cane. Jordan was a jedi, a costume I cut out of some fabric like 10 minutes before Jordan's first Cub Scout Pack meeting when I found out he was supposed to dress up for a skit that night. He liked the costume so much that he decided to use it instead of the Batman one I had bought him. Don't you remember when our parents didn't used to buy us costumes? We had to rummage through our closets and invent costumes...when I was a kid we had to trick-or-treat uphill both ways through the snow in our bare feet! :)
