Well, All Hallow's Eve has come and gone. We had a busy couple of days...Lexie had a school pajama party, we had a ward Halloween party, and then Halloween itself. We have all been sick this week, so it's been a pretty interesting week.
But we had a lot of fun, and took a lot of pictures. Here are some highlights:

Jaden's Big Adventure
Please click the play button below in honor of Jaden today:
Jaden went to an ENT doctor today and with a brief flash of scissors, got his frenulum (that piece of skin underneath your tongue)snipped. He was diagnosed with ankyloglossia (tongue-tied) when he was born, and we had been weighing whether or not to get it clipped. We were worried that he would have to be sedated and worked on in an operating room, but he was a brave little guy and sat on his Daddy's lap while the doctor did the deed. He cried for about 10 seconds, and then stopped when his Mommy picked him up. The doctor gave him a sticker, which he promptly tried to eat, so his mouth must have felt alright. A little drool tinged in red, and he was good to go!
In case you want to know more about ankyloglossia, here is an expert presentation:

Breakfast with Aunt Cindee
Well, we had a great adventure over the weekend...we got to fly to Disneyland with Grandma and Grandpa Nelson and see everything. On Saturday morning we had breakfast at the Storyteller's Cafe and Cindee came up to eat with us! It was about an hour each way of driving, but we were sure excited to see her. The last time she held Jaden was when he was one week old, so they had some catching up to do. I wanted to post a few pictures of our breakfast with some woodland visitors today...a more comprehensive record of our trip will follow soon!

Bear World Video
Stacie already posted a slideshow of our fun trip to Idaho Falls, and this is a video of our ride through Bear World. It was a slow ride, so Lexie got to sit on my lap while we drove through. I apologize for the jostling of the camera; between riding in a moving vehicle, trying to film wild animals, and holding a semi-wild Lexie on my lap, it got a little bit bumpy.
The video is pretty funny...especially the repartee between Lexie and her Grandpa. Hope you like it!

Trip to Idaho Falls
For the 24th of July weekend we headed to Idaho Falls with Josh's parents. We were able to go to Bear World, West Yellowstone, and Old Faithful. The days were great, the nights not so much fun. Our kids are pretty good about sleeping anywhere but for some reason they didn't do much sleeping in the hotel throughout the weekend. Probably too much sleeping in the car while we drove. We got to eat dinner at Flags west (a favorite truck stop with the best scones around), had a great view of the Idaho Falls Temple from our hotel room, and I got a new blue Cowgirl hat for only $5. We had a great trip! Thanks for the fun weekend Mom & Dad!!
