Sorry we missed a week. We have a camera again so now we're back! Our girls were most excited about Puna and Brady coming to visit. Brady started school at BYU-I last week. We missed having Papa with us, but we enjoyed our short Puna visit. We hit two of our family's favorite spots, Cafe Rio and The Cocoa Bean. Thanks for the treats Puna.
We had a small party for Brady's birthday. Lily helped make and decorate the cake.
Tommy was slightly frightened by our latest large zucchini from the garden. Poor kid. We've been eating so much zucchini lately.
One day Lily wanted to help make a treat. She spilled about three cups of sugar and flour on the floor. She was so sad - especially since she really wanted to be a big helper. She helped me clean it all up and we started again.
Lily giving Tommy a horse ride.
We took a trip to the university apple orchards to pick apples. Unfortunately the batteries were dead in the camera so I didn't get any cute pictures. But I was able to can some applesauce. It turned out delicious. The kids love it. Am I a real Idaho girl now? I know how to garden and can my own produce!
Jeremy got to take a horseback ride with his boss and some colleagues. They went on a really cold foggy morning. But the day ended up sunny and clear. Jeremy's boss is the one in the chaps and cowboy hat.
Tommy enduring Mommy's love for picture taking. He is so close to crawling. He gets up on all fours and rocks back and forth. When he really wants to get moving he will raise up on his hands and stretch his legs so he's on his toes, then he pushes himself forward with his feet and his arms usually buckle under - which leads to a face plant. But he is really trying and seems to like it.

Cuties in the bathtub!
Lily having her first piano lesson. She is impatient and wants to play songs right away. But she did well with going slow and learning just a little. We will do piano for just a few minutes each day and see how far we get. Lily is so excited to have her own piano book. When she's not carrying it around with her, she wants it displayed prominently on the piano.
Annie is finally getting over her sinus infection. We have less than two weeks until her tonsils come out. After months of sleep apnea, not wanting to eat, and feeling grumpy and weepy (due to poor sleep) we are hoping her quality of life will go way up once the tonsils are out.
Tommy is doing great. He is our chubbiest baby yet. He's taking bottles and eating cereal. It seems he is eating and growing constantly.
