20 Months!

Yesterday Conner and Emma turned 20 months. Here are some of the things that happened in November with them:
- The both plug their noses when you say "Ew, stinky!"
- Conner can "say" thank-you
- Conner ate his first FULL jar of baby food on Thanksgiving
- He also climbed the stairs all by himself
- He likes to say uh-oh whenever he drops something, which is starting to be quite often

And here are their monthly pictures

Thanksgiving Weekend

For Thanksgiving we went up to Idaho and hung out with both of our families. We had a lot of fun and a lot of food.

I didn't take a whole lot of pictures this Thanksgiving so here are the few that I took:

We made turkeys out of our footprints and hand prints. Me and Eric's were huge and Conner's looked like a chubby little turkey. We made 'Aulani's with the hand/footprints they took of her after she passed away. So her turkey was pretty tiny. This picture shows the different sizes. Eric's turkey looks kind of funny because we were just laying out the pieces and hadn't put them together yet.

And our finished turkeys

First Snow

Technically this wasn't the first snow of the year or their first snow rather, but it was the first time they got to be in the snow.

Conner didn't really like the snow at all and Emma didn't really care what she was doing. Conner didn't like being in the actual snow but if I put him on our cement patio with a little bit of snow then he was fine. Emma didn't really care where she was.

Emma's first snow angel (with my help of course)

The first time I showed her a handful of snow and she very gingerly stuck her tongue out and "licked" it. It was pretty dang cute. I tried to get a video of her but this is the best I got which isn't very good.

Conner's First Haircut!!

Today Conner had his first haircut today! It was kind of bittersweet for me. He really needed a haircut because whenever he ate he would get food in his hair, but then I didn't want to cut it because I was scared his curls wouldn't come back. He actually did pretty good while I cut his hair. I just stuck him in a Bumbo, turned on some Dora, and stuck a binkie in his mouth.

So here are some before pictures of his super long hair:

Zoned out watching Dora

And the afters!:

October

Here are some things that happened in October:
(There are actually about 8 or so other blog posts before this that I back dated for October)

Conner really likes to point now

This is how I bring them out of their room sometimes after nap time

This is one of Conner and Emma's favorite toys (which doesn't make sense to me). They also like to play peek-a-boo with it too (also doesn't make any sense). Funny kids.

This is how I found Emma one day during her nap. Looks comfortable huh.

This was the morning after we finally put pictures up on the wall and Emma checking them out

We almost don't have to dust off our t.v. stand because the kids are always touching it.

Going in to check on him and noticed something was missing on him. . . .

Her hair is getting longer!

Emma wearing a dress that I wore when I was a baby. I was going to try and find a picture and do a side by side but I didn't want to look through all of my pictures that are somewhere in the house.
