Giraffe On the Loose






Reese, as you can tell, was a giraffe for Halloween. I bought her outfit when she was 7 months old thinking a 6-9 month outfit would work. Wrong! The feet of the costume where up to her knee caps. She still managed to look adorable in it. Jason and I took her to our ward's Trunk-or-Treat. Jason dressed up as a Chicago Cubs baseball player and I made up Safari Susan- tour guide showing off my baby giraffe.

Bath Time


Reese loves tub time. We've found out that we need to have a good grip on her because she turns into a slippery seal. She's gone under once (with mom holding her) and recovered well. No bonks or bruises just a quick head under water coming up with a drowned rat look afterwards. She just turned her head to me and gave a priceless look like "where were you on that?" I couldn't stop laughing. Can't get the image out of my head.

"I love to read"



Reese loves books! Jason and I have read to her from day one and she seems to really enjoy it. Let's hope it sticks!! I would love for her to reach for a book vs. reaching for a remote when she's older. I can now say "Reese, turn the page" and she can do it on her own. Her favorite book is her Disney Princess sing-along book. I think Jason and I have every song memorized. It cracks me up when Jason randomly breaks into princess songs!
I took Reese to the Sandy Library's "Mommy and Me" class today with cute girls in my neighborhood. Besides the male teacher being a little...ok very feminine...it was quite fun. What am I saying? That was the fun part for me! Looks like a man, talks like a woman and sings like one too? Hmmmm? The class would chuckle at Reese because she practically lunged off my lap (to grab the book being shown) each time the teacher would walk around. Too cute!

Baby Kellen is here!


Chloe and Tyler just had a healthy baby boy. They decided to name him Kellen Tyler Ray. He was born 10/9/08 at 7:00pm. 10..9...8...7 kinda funny and makes it easy to remember! Kellen weighed in at 8pds 1 ounce, is 19 1/2 inches long and looks just like the Scott side...especially Samuel! Chloe and Tyler are living in Dallas, Texas. We were not all as LUCKY as my mom to be out there for the birth. They will be visiting us in December for a few weeks. We are counting down the days until then!

Beautiful Baby

We (well I) can't take too many pictures! The camera loves her. Love her eyelashes and baby blue eyes. We want to eat her...in a non-cannibal way that is!!!

Gerber Reese


Reese reminds me of the Gerber baby in this pic. Her hair is getting longer so Jason decided it was time to style it. What a sweet dad eh?! Turned out pretty darn adorable!
