We finally made it out to take some pictures, including a great one that will be on our Christmas cards that I already ordered and have every intention of sending out on December 1st. Next year perhaps Sam and I will make it onto the Christmas card.
I love these kids and their cute faces. I'm so glad that they're mine even if they are growing up after I told them a million times to Stop It!
Speaking of growing, Little Peanut weighed in at 11 lbs. 3 ozs. at her 2 month appointment last week. This week I had to choke back tears as I packed away her newborn clothes. When I came across the tiny pink jammies that she wore at the hospital I almost lost it.
And look at Nate. Who is that kid? And you should hear his voice, all deep and man like. I can hardly take it.
Bryce didn't go Trick-or-Treating this year. What's that? At least he still dressed up.
Seriously, no more blinking!

Totally off topic-
Last week I was called to be the secretary in the Young Women's organization in our ward. I went to my first activity last night with the Young Men and Young Women. I don't know if I'm cut out for this. Teenagers kind of scare me. This calling will definitely force me outside of my comfort zone and also be a much bigger time commitment than the other callings I have had recently. I'm really quite nervous about the whole thing. What I am hoping that I gain from this experience is a greater ability to connect with my own teenagers, present and future. I also hope that I will be able to bring something to the youth that I will be working with. I don't yet know what that might be. After last night I feel that it might be even more difficult than I originally thought, but I have faith in the process, so bring it on.
