She is far too young to be doing this already. 

She picked those ridiculous boots out. 

Before school. They're good looking kids!

Top of the Wild Rose trail in Davis County. 

Desolation trail in Millcreek Canyon. 

Day one of potty training. 

Taa daa!

He actually got her to pee. 

Aaaaand day two. 

Halloween parade at school with his buddy Dashel. 

We saw this outside his classroom. 

Ingrid the gnome. Her gnome hat had to be replaced by a warmer one. 

Saturday morning cartoons and snuggles while I made breakfast and Jesse slept in. 

Legos and edamame. 

Jesse successfully knocked out Maximus' loose tooth yesterday!

Hiking!

We like our Sunday hikes. I strap Ingrid to my chest and we carry on in the hills and canyons. We like just minutes from amazing trails!

Wheeler Farm

He can hurdle anything. 

Bundled up, hanging out. 

This is the Place Heritage Park. We went for a Halloween thing and Maximus' anxiety kicked in and it turned out awful. Oh well. 

Inside on if the pioneer homes at This is the Place Heritage Park. So much history!

Sugarhouse Park for the pumpkin regatta. She was tired and threw a fit in the wood chips for a good 10 minutes. 

Helping me bake!

If you could pogo stick off picnic tables, you'd do it too. 

Always eating. 

Maximus and Dashel. They are really, really good buds. They work so well together. 

If you have leaves in your yard and we're on our evening walk, they will play in them. 

Up at 6am eating 2 bananas in my bed. Of course. 

Jesse sent me flowers! He's never done that!

He turned me into a monster. 

Ingrid is in the cheesy smile phase. 

During his soccer game. 

I enjoy the hour I get to myself in the morning. 

Dinner is Served!

Yours truly helped me with dinner and he made about 80% of it! Awesome crab cakes too!

Toward the end of the week, Maximus struggles. He was so tired at 6pm Thursday evening that our walk ended like this. He went to bed at 7pm and I woke him up the next morning at 7:45am. 

I bake a lot now. And it's for Maximus. He sleeps better when he eats a complex carb and drinks milk before bed. Whole wheat and quinoa flour pumpkin scones!

We love to feed the ducks at Fairmont! I pick him up at Boys & Girls Club and we walk over to feed them. 

Oh wow. The other day at H&M, Ingrid threw a HUGE fit over "pretties" (headbands). I caved and bought her some. She feels so pretty. 

Maximus made a birthday card for his buddy yesterday. 

He also has started copying books. This is the cover of Oliver Twist. 

The three of us yesterday. We make a good team!

Peter's party yesterday wore them out!
