Update

I can't believe it has been a month since I have posted last. Talk about a slacker. Life has been crazy around here. I started working everyday about three weeks ago and I hate it. Granted I only work 5-6 hours a day and they let me bring Molly so that is nice but I almost think that it is harder bringing her. I worry about work and trying to take care of Molly too. Aaron has also been busy with work, school, and his church callings. I can't wait for him to be done with school, but I am afraid it is going to be a while. He also spent a day hanging the Christmas lights outside. My mom and decided it is so nice to have a man around the house so we didn't have to climb the ladder.

A few weeks ago Grandma Connie took us to Disney on Ice. We had my whole family there except my sister Michelle. The kids totally loved it. Molly stood on Aaron's lap and waved at all the characters.

Kylah, Brayden and his Goofy hat, Mykah; my adorable nieces and nephew

Molly and Konner, all Molly wanted to do was give Konner kisses

After we went to dinner at AppleBee's. It is always entertaining to watch the babies together. Konner isn't totally sure he likes Molly. This is a picture of Molly trying so hard to figure out what she was having for dinner.

Wow do the cheeks run in the family or what!

This year for Thanksgiving we stayed in Payson. We all went to Grandma and Grandpa Page's. It was a nice, relaxing day but too short. I can't believe Thanksgiving has come and gone.

We also had Aaron's work bonus night. Every November they do a big dinner at the Salt Palace. This year it was planned the same day as the BYU-Utah game so they had a big tailgate party and they bought everyone their team shirts. We went to West Haven the night before to see Goodrich's and they watched Molly for us when we went to the party. It was so nice to get away for a few hours without her. It doesn't happen often.

Last weekend we had our ward Christmas party and Santa came to visit. And me being the mean mom that I am, I made Molly sit on his lap. She just sat and looked at him for a few seconds and then she SCREAMED! I just had to get that picture.
