There's a photo of Kari (for those of you who haven't met her, she is my best friend up here in Butte) and the Diaper Cake that our friend Sonya made for us - adorable!

Happy Halloween!
It's been a little longer between posts this time, and we apologize. We've got pictures all ready to be uploaded, but Jessi has become so exhausted lately that nothing is getting done! Welcome to motherhood, I'm guessing! Our friend, Kari, threw Jessi a shower on the 25th, so here are some pics of the fun.

Nadie Dijo Que Seria Facil...
Translated from Spanish means "Nobody said it would be easy", and boy, is that true!!! As we start counting down instead of counting up, Lily is getting stronger and stronger. Jessi thinks she's "resistance training". Lily will push a foot out and hold it like she's trying to stretch and make more space. It is quite painful at times, but we're thrilled that she's strong.
Mike made us cheese fondue to eat during conference sessions last week, so we thought we'd include a picture of our feast (and of Mike taking good care of his preggy wife).

2. That’s for sure
3. Hey
4. LQTM (I may not say it but I type it a ton!)

8 people I tag:
1. Cameron
2.John
3. Beth
4. Tammy
5. Jen
6. Shelye
AND THEN I GOT TAGGED AGAIN...
The rules are list six quirks about yourself, and then leave a note for 6 friends on their blog to tag them! My six people are: Sam, Bethany, Tammy, Shelye, Beth and Jen.
These are quirks – so of course they’ll make me seem a bit weird.
1. I don’t like the cord that is around the hood of sweatshirts, so I pull them out of every sweatshirt I get.
2. I don’t like people to breathe on me – it makes me feel like I can’t breathe “good” air.
3. My rugs and furniture HAVE to be parallel to the walls.
4. When I find bugs in the house, first they scare me, and then they make me mad. Then they die.
5. When I’m reading a book, I tune out the world so spectacularly that I can’t hear Mike when he talks to me. (Or anyone, for that matter.)
6. When I sing songs to myself, I can’t help but wiggle my hips. Mike noticed the other day and laughed, so I tried to sing without “dancing” and I couldn’t!
