2 Naughty Puppies

Halloween with a 4 month old basically consists of putting Finn in a costume, taking pictures and 10 minutes later taking it off. I can't wait for next year to take him Trick or Treating.

Here is Oscar and Finn. Can you tell which one is Finn?



Sorry for the long post Teri, but I couldn't choose between all the photos.



And here is Finn doing his best Oscar growling impersionation

Julianne Joy Selph

My brother Ethan and his Wife Melissa finally had their 1st baby. Julianne was born October 29th.

Hard Working Man

I have been crazy busy at work the past few weeks. There are not enough hours in the day to get everything done. Today I decided to call in my backup to help me get everything done.

Musik Express

Saturday night we decided to hit up the funnest place in Utah, Lagoon! Obviously you know its good if the Beach Boy's sing about it.

Ben humor's me about once a year and goes with me, even though he hates it worse than Coconut Shrimp. Here is Ben enjoying himself.



The only place in Utah that you can find better people watching is the State Fair. It is hard to be sneaky with a camera, but I did catch a shot of this lovely group. I'm guessing they snuck in last night, slept on that bench, woke up the next afternoon and smoked a cigarette... and then went on the Rocket.



Lines were out of control. Everyone who is anyone was there. We were there for about 4 hours and went on 4 rides. The Rocket, The Spider, Turn of the Century,



and the Musik Express, my personal favorite. Dan and Jake sat behind us:







Dan and I were the lucky ones and sat on the outside. Here we are getting crushed:





And here is cute Laura, she couldn't go on 50% of the rides with us because they'd make her sick.

Loving the Puppy

Oscar and Finn cuddling.

Flashback Friday - Easter in South Carolina

I stole this idea from a friends blog. Every Friday I'm going to try to post an old picture and/or memory.

Here is a picture of me and my mom in my Grandma Vivie and Grandpa Leo's yard in South Carolina. If I remember the pictures right, we were having an Easter egg hunt.



I love this tree. South Carolina has the most beautiful trees. And the most beautiful ladies!

Shorkie Tzu

Last night I went to Harmon's to buy Ice Cream and almost went home with this:



A Shih Tzu / Yorkie Mix. It was the cutest, fluffiest and tiniest puppy I've ever seen. If the lady would have dropped $100 off the price I would have bought it right then, without even asking Ben.

Standard Night

Last night we didn't really have anything to do except sit around and play with Finn and watch some TV.

Finn got new pajama's from Costco so I figured I could at least show them off.



Here are a few more shots of Finn and Oscar. We have the cutest family.

Fun Filled Weekend

We had a busy weekend.

Friday night we went to Red Robin with Ben's family. DeeAnne was in town for a few days to see her favorite grandbaby. They have this new burger that is swimming in goat cheese. It was the best thing ever.

Saturday morning my family had Melissa's baby shower / Mckay's birthday party / Aunt Janette's birthday party. Any family member (cousins, aunts and uncles) that lives in the Salt Lake or Utah Valley area came up. It was a crazy party with millions of kids screaming. But so fun.

We got a few of the kids in their halloween costumes. Here is Yara (ladybug), Finn (Doggy) and Gideon (Dragon).



Here's best friends Yara and Mackenzie, this shows how crazy this party was!



After the party, I ditched Ben and headed to a boutique with my cousin Noelle. I didn't buy anything, but I found some really cute ideas. Someday I'll get around to making them.

Ben went and picked up Oscar who got a haircut.



Later in the evening we went to South Towne Mall to take back an outfit that DeeAnne bought Finn. Thanks anyways DeeAnne! We ended up with a few cute shirts and a pair of pajamas.

Finally we got home around 7:00, ate dinner and plopped in front of the TV for the rest of the night.

Naked Baby

Finn loves bath time. Here are a couple of photos from his bath last night. Sorry about the nudie shots.




Finn even likes it when daddy dumps an entire cup of water over his head.




I can't wait for summer. He is going to love the pool.

Peter Peter

Here are our pumpkins. Hopefully we'll carve this weekend. Even though I'm horrible at it.

Wash your hands

I got pooped on.

I was just changing Finn's diaper and I guess he decided he wasn't done yet. So my hand got covered. Ben was in the room and he was laughing so hard he was almost crying. He is laughing so hard he couldn't help me for almost a minute. So I'm standing there covered, looking at Finn, who is also laughing.

Too bad I didn't have the camera.... Not really.

She thinks my tractor's sexy...

Tonight we finally went to the Pumpkin Patch by our house. They have set it up so cute. They have about a dozen different tractor's that you can sit on. Ben and Finn look so manly on their tractor.



These pictures are dark, but here is a far away picture of the tractor.



Thousands of pumpkins!



Cute Uncle Jake, probably sad because he couldn't find the perfect pumpkin.



So, we got home kinda late after dinner, and all the pumpkins are in the back of my car still. I'll post a picture when I put them outside. We got like 6 pumpkin's for $11. So cheap!

Instinct

Yesterday was Oscar's second birthday. So he got his favorite treat, a Busy Bone. Once he has eaten as much as he can handle, he has to fine a place to "bury" it. He has done this in the past, but last night was the best.

Since Oscar is an inside dog, it is a little hard when instinct kicks in. He doesn't have dirt to hide his bone in, so he improvises. Sometimes it is in the closet and he pushes shoes over it. Or under a pile of clothes.

Here are a few of Oscars spots last night. Obviously none were good enough since he kept changing his mind. First, in Finn's Bumbo Seat.


Next in the magazine box behind Finn's swing.



Next under the blanket on the couch.



Sometimes when you sit on it, it makes an even better hiding spot.



Next under the blanket on the wicker chair.



We didn't get a picture of him in the act, but this was the best one.



Under the chair cushion.



There were several others, but we didn't have the camera to catch the act. Finally he seemed so frustrated, we took the bone and hid it for him. We'll give it back to him later tonight.
