Miss Manners

Jenna recently started to tell us "No way" when she didn't want to do something! It got old really fast! We asked her to say no, thank you instead! So then we would hear "No, thank you" to everything! We try to reinforce her good manners by telling her "Thank you for using your manners!" So as of yesterday we now hear "No, thank you. I am saying my manners!" It is pretty cute! It is amazing how quick they pick things up!!

Turkey treat

Here is a cute idea for the upcoming Thanksgiving holiday! These would make great FHE treats, Visiting teaching treats, etc. My mom reminded me that we use to make these. We made them for FHE tonight and they were a little bit harder than I remember, but still cute and fun!

Ingredients: Oreo cookies, candy corn, Whoppers, red hots and frosting

tip: it helps to break the back Oreo cookie in half, that way you have a flat edge on the bottom to attach it with

One last picture with the pumpkins!


Quick potty training update

Potty training is on hold for a little while! We were having accident after accident and it just got too much for me!! I really didn't think potty training would be hard! Boy was I wrong! So, I am waiting a little bit until Jenna seems more interested! On the bright side, when she does show more interest I am already set with all the potty supplies!!

Halloween fun!


Here is Jenna at our ward Halloween party! The other little girl in the pics dressed as an Indian is her friend Jane! There is also pics of us carving pumpkins for FHE! Jenna would check dads pumpkin to make sure it was all cleaned out! After close inspection she would look up at him and say "keep going!" It was pretty funny!! We hope everyone had a spooktacular halloween!
