Christmas is definetaly my favorite holiday, but halloween comes in a close second. I just love it. So I was really excited to dress Makella up this year. I wanted to make it a great 1st halloween, even though she wont even remember. I was looking at costumes like 3 months ago. After looking around, we found a cute lobster costume that we thought would be fun. So I decided to be like my mom and make the costume myself! I started in August and it took me all the way til halloween day to get it done! Im definetaly not a sewer, but it was a fun project and I guess it turned out alright for not having a pattern! Anyways, it was a great day! She loved her costume and she looked so cute! We took her trick-or-treating to a few houses in our neighborhood and it was so much fun! She didnt even try to pull off her hat!

Pumpkins!
The other night, Karianne and Larry came over for the night. We dont get to do much with them since we are all so busy, so it was nice to hang out! We had dinner and then the boys played guitar hero and watched saw 3 while me and Karianne carved pumpkins. It was really fun, plus it was snowing like crazy. I love the snow!

Rexburg!
So last week, I decided that since Jon was so busy in school and hardly home, I would go on a little trip :) I went to Rexburg to see my friend Amiee and her baby that is only 6 weeks older than Makella. Her husband is really busy in school too, so it was perfect! We had a really good time! It was so nice to see one of my friends for awhile, I wish we lived closer! It was fun to watch the kids play too since they are so close in age. We bou
ght them matching outfits (cuz thats just what we do) and we took their pictures...so fun!

Baby things!
Its been awhile since I posted, so i thought I would let you know how things have been. Jon is really busy in school right now. He works so hard in his classes. Life is sometimes slow for me just staying at home, but Makella is getting so big and is so much fun! She can crawl everywhere and gets into a lot of stuff. I forget that she can move so far sometimes! We love her and just cant get enough! Here are some of her new tricks.
One of her favorite books is a book of baby words like nose, mouth, cat, etc. A couple weeks ago, everytime I ask her where her mouth is, she points to it. She's so smart!
She has a tendency of throwing fits if she doesnt think her needs are met, so I stuck her in this to let her cool down. When it got quiet, i came in and found this...sweet girl!
One of her favorite things is when daddy goes out and runs around the yard with babbos. she waves her arms, yells da da da and laughs. I find it pretty funny too!
She is getting so good at standing. She can pull herself up on just about anything.
Now that she can stand, she falls and hits her head quite a bit, but this is the first time she has had a mark to show for it. She fell and hit her face on the coffee table...poor thing!!
