This month is full of excitement. I have been working our costumes for Halloween and cant wait to post pictures of our little Mummy family. We are excited to take Andrew to our ward trunk or treat / party. He is going to have so much fun!
Paul was just called a Gospel Doctrine teacher, he is excited but nervous at the same time. He says that most of those teachers are old and know the scriptures front and back. lol He will do GREAT! I am also enjoying studying the material with him (we all know I need it, that is an area I am lacking in) :)
Paul's Dad is coming in to town next week and week and we are looking forward to him bonding with Andrew. He has not seen him since he was 2 months old.
We went to Gardner Village on Sat. while Daddy was at the Priesthood session of General Conference, Which was AMAZING by the way. We looked at all the Halloween deco and went on a fun witch hunt. Got some cute photos too.

I start a nanny job for a friend on the 19th and I am looking forward to being busy again, it is the perfect schedule and an answer to our prayers. I will be able to take a little of the stress off Paul. Paul's job is slow and steady and he is looking forward to going back to school full time and change his career to do something he enjoys. He has to finish up these last 2 classes then probably transfer to BYU full time next fall.

Andrew is happy and healthy as ever. He wakes up smiling every day and is such a sweet boy. We are enjoying seeing him grow and learn. His new thing this week is he likes to feed Mommy pretzels or crackers when we have snack time. He thinks its funny when he gets it in my mouth and I bite it. He also is into anything that has wheels and loves to push them all over the house. We have to watch where step so we dont trip on any of his cars. :) He is still working on walking and took 3 steps by himself last week when he thought I was not looking then when he realized I was, he fell on his bum and started laughing. I think he really does know how to walk but is tricking all us to think he cant. he is just to smart. He loves to feed himself and eats what we eat. He is not on jar baby food anymore and he drinks whole milk (which he LOVES). He is 21 pounds and tall, i dont know how tall I need a tape measure :) We have used his car seat to the max, it says up to 22 pounds so we are now in the market for a new or used car seat.
I have started a Boutique with some fun accessories and I want to branch it into toddler clothing made with unwanted adult clothing. I have a bunch of ideas and designs in my head and am slowly working on them. I have already got one style out, a jumper. I hope that over time I can really bring in some money and make this a dream career instead of just a hobby. Only time will tell if people are interested in my creativity and designs. I know it will take some time to build up a fan base and interest but I am excited to expand my products as much as I can.

I am so grateful for EVERYTHING and all the opportunities in our life right now. We are on the road to a new chapter in our lives and although sometimes scary, we are looking forward to what the Lord has in store for us. That's it for now, see you next time.
