When Ellie came and sat down for dinner Monday night. I just had to take a picture. She had put on one of her favorite dresses, a pink feathery scarf, purple wings, and a homemade crown from primary. Nothing was really out of the ordinary, but as I sat watching her, I thought, these are the moments I want to remember. (Sorry I wasn't able to get a good picture someone was distracting me)
James thought I was taking a picture of him and he was really hamming it up from across the room.
We finally had a couple of warm days, so we were able to get fluffy out and play with him. We didn't dare let him wander far, but he sure is cute.
I love this pic. Barry is such a good father. He always has time for his Eleanor, he was carving upon request.
These are our Jack-o-Lanterns for this year. Our Neighbors kindly donated a couple of pumpkins from their patch, and Barry stewed one for us, and toasted the seeds. Which I might add gave us all belly aches for days. (JSYK: Okay, so I'm pretty white, but I'm not actually iridescent. That's the reflection off the house.)

WE INTERRUPT THIS POST FOR A MESSAGE FROM THE EMERGENCY BLOGCAST ASSOCIATION.
NOT JUST A HIGH FEVER
NOT JUST A COUGH
NOT STREP THROAT
SO I KNOW MY CAMERA DOESN'T WORK VERY WELL, BUT THERE ARE SPOTS, AND THEY ARE EVERYWHERE. FORTUNATELY, JAMES IS HAPPY AS A PIG IN MUD BECAUSE HE DOESN'T HAVE A FEVER ANYMORE, BUT HE DOES HAVE SOMETHING TO SHOW FOR IT.
WHAT?
What's that you say? You think spots are "in", you want them too.
Okay, here's what you do, come and see us.
....Oh it's piggy flu you want. Well you can get a vaccine for that too.
Or you could just try this....

BACK TO YOUR REGULAR POSTING
This is what I wake up to every morning. Literally I know, horror! I let him sleep in our bed, but the truth is, I love it, and in the morning when he crawls up on my chest to wake me and grabs my nose or ear or eyes (whatever strikes his fancy), I love him even more, for from the moment he wakes up, he has a smile to share with me that melts my heart and I thank my Heavenly Father every day for sending me this angel.
Do you get star scones for breakfast??? I do! It's because I'm loved.

I sleep with Annika too and have since she was born. I wish I would've done it with Caleb--so much easier and so great!!! I simply love it!
What a fun post! I am jealous about the scones. I hope that James' spots go away quickly and without too much scratching. Collin sleeps with us too and it is so much fun to see his smiling face in the morning. :)
