Ok, not really, but it sure seems like it lately!!!!
Fat Lip - About a month ago, Bailey slipped in the kitchen and hit her lip on the floor. It gave her her first injury, so we took a picture of the resulting fat lip!
Black-eyed pea - I decided to bring Bailey in the shower with me a week ago and have her play around on the floor while I showered. Shelby came in and was making faces at her through the glass, so Bailey decided to stand up. Tile + water = slippery floor and Bailey went down and hit her eye and nose on the edge of the tile. Very sad!!! and here's the picture. :-)
She looks much better now. Everything healed nicely. Now, please don't turn us into child services! ;-)
I spent last week on a business trip to Boston. I stayed right downtown, about .3 miles from Faneuil Hall (an old marketplace and town hall). Across the street from my hotel was the Granary Cemetery where famous early Americans as Paul Revere, Benjamin Franklin and Samuel Adams are buried. The headstone in the picture above was Samuel Adams'. They have people dressed up in costumes from way back when and they tell fun stories while taking people on a tour of the cities sites along the Freedom Trail.
On Tuesday of that week, my company took us to dinner in a downtown restaurant. I couple pass up the opportunity to eat dessert when they offered the option of getting Fried Oreos. I have to say, that even though they were probably 350 calories each, they were fantastic!!! The picture below is poor, but it was dim lighting and it was on my cell phone. 
Lastly, the kids are catching up in school after missing a few days to go on the deer hunt with Aaron. They didn't shoot any deer, and saw very few over the 4 days there were out. Aaron was very disappointed, but the girls still had fun camping and playing with cousin Memrice. I will post some pictures when Aaron gets back from Idaho with the camera. He took off this morning for the cabin to fish the Madison river for the last time this year.
After he gets back from the cabin, he'll be home for Halloween weekend and then takes off for South Dakota for a pheasant hunting trip. As soon as he gets back, he leaves for Australia for business. So, needless to say, I'm going to be a single parent for the next month or so. Yeah!
Bailey is crawling up and down the stairs now. I have to watch her carefully going down because she still tries to go head first sometimes. Her new babysitter, Erin (whom we LOVE!!!), was diagnosed with H1N1 on Tuesday, so we are keeping Bailey home for the rest of this week. Bailey is going in for her vaccination tonight, so hopefully she won't get sick.
Get better soon Erin!!! That's all for now. Hope everyone is doing well!!!
Check this out. I love it so much I downloaded the song to my iPod. :-)You're gonna love my nuts! ha ha!
On Saturday, Aaron and his dad got up at the insane hour of 4:30 am, to go up to Brigham City to Aaron's duck hunting club for opening day of the duck hunt. They had a blast (ha ha) and were able to limit out before dark. We took these pictures of the ones he kept. (his dad kept the others)
The one on the left is the biggest one with a gorgeous green head. The other ones were youngun's and had flecks of green in their feathers, but none as pretty as the first one.
Aaron took our dog, Ashes, out with him on Sunday afternoon and got a few more, but we didn't take any pictures of those. Aaron said Ashes did pretty well and finally understood that when the gun goes off, she should swim out and get the duck. She got a little annoyed at Aaron a couple times when he shot and missed and she jumped in the water for nothing. :-)
Today, Aaron and I are celebrating our 12th anniversary. We are playing things a little low key this year, since we already had a great time celebrating in Vegas a few weekends ago. Tonight he is taking me to a nice dinner while his parents watch the girls. It is always nice to spend some alone time in a nice restaurant. :-)Sorry, no pictures for this event. Ha ha!!!
After I got back from Boston, Aaron took off with Shelby and Gretchen and went deer hunting. They had a blast but didn't get to shoot any deer. They saw very few of them and most of them were does and fawns. They went with Grandpa Jenkins, and stayed in his camper trailer, Aaron's brothers Bret and Cody, and Bret's oldest daughter Memrice. Shelby and Gretchen were so excited that Mem came along. They had a great time watching movies and hiking together.
This is a shot of the day that Aaron left to come home. Weather was mild up until this. Cody and Bret didn't mind the snow too much. I know they've hunted in worse weather. 
Just a shot of the camp with Shelby, Mem and Cody's dog Sadie.
