10 months old?!

I've been taking a picture of Kyla every month on her "birthday" day (every 1st day of the month). This is what her 10 month old picture looked like. She smiled so big and cute! (If you look carefully you will notice how you can see her top tooth:) I'll be adding more pictures of her teeth soon.) A fun fact about Kyla: She can almost say Jesus when we show her a picture of him! We say, "Whos that? Is that Jesus?" and most of the time her response is, "Jeesss". Another fun fact is that she knows where my eyes, nose and mouth is. I can ask her, "Where's mommy's nose?" And she'll point to my nose. Then I ask her the same with my eyes and mouth and she knows where they are. It's great! Now we just have to work on having her point to her own nose, mouth and eyes.


The many faces of Kyla--She always scrunches up her nose and face and makes a noise as if she's sniffing or something. I have no idea where she picked that up but it's so stinking cute that I finally took a great picture of the moment. She's so silly.


Hyrum's birthday was on the 3rd of this month. Kyla and I couldn't wait any longer to have Hyrum open his gifts from us so we did it right after we all woke up (as you can tell, they're still in their pjs!) One of the gifts that Kyla gave him was a Nintendo Wii game. It's called Surfs Up and you obviously can tell he was pretty excited! It's a really fun game though.


Kyla was playing in the tub yesterday and since she loves bubbles so much, I decided to give her a bubble bath. She had a blast! She was so excited that she was eating the bubbles and came up out of the water with a bubble beard! Another fun fact about Kyla: On Hyrum's computer there is a screensaver called bubbles and when Kyla is fussy, we tell her that we're going to show her the bubbles. She gets really excited and then we show her the computer with bubbles going everywhere on the screen. She stops fussing and gets so excited, smiles really big and tries to say bubbles and points at them. It's the cutest thing.


This is my most recent project that I've done. I've been obsessed with wreaths lately but I didn't want to go to the store to actually buy a pre-made wreath since they're usually about $20.00. So I decided to see if I could make one myself. It turned out better then I thought it would! I just bought the grapevine wreath by itself and then bought the fall flowers and stuck them in the wreath. I made my own arrangement for less then $10.00! The great thing about doing this myself is once fall is over, I can take out the leaves in the wreath, and arrange it to look Christmas like with poinsettas and other christmas type things. I'm pretty excited!

I like your wreath. I think it turned out cuter than mine! =] That picture of Kyla's scrunch face is so stinkin-cute! I know Spencer gets a kick out of seeing it during priesthood!

Awesome job on the wreath! Kyla is getting so big, she's so stinkin cute! So about the video, Chris wa making surprised faces, but it was way past bedtime and like me, he gets sillier as he gets more tired. I was on the phone with my sister when I heard laughter so I grabbed the camera and saw Chris just making goofy faces at Gavin. The video is seriously 5 minutes long and he was laughing for about 2 minutes before I grabbed the camera.
