Catching up!

This has been such a busy month! It has been so long since I posted, but wanted to share a few things from the last several weeks. On September 12 we celebrated Emily's 6th birthday. For her gift she wanted me to take her shopping so she could pick out what she wanted. That was a lot of fun and would you believe she did not get one toy. We spent the whole time at Target looking for clothes and accessories.

Here she is with a few friends

Opening a few gifts

The day after Emily's birthday, we had another reason to celebrate. Ella was baptized! On May 11th Ella actually asked Christ into her heart and to be her Savior, but was just baptized on September 13th. Every year our church does a beach baptism, which is where she was washed clean! Here are some pictures.

Reading her testimony

This was the big moment (it was actually pretty rough)

Also, Jacob turned 8 months old on September 20th. We do not go back to the doctor until he is 9 months, but he is scooting all over the place, sitting up, and his newest thing is clapping. He loves to clap and he really likes it when people clap with him. He is still such an easy baby, very social and a joy to have around. Such a cutie!

Here's my boy!

I also want to wish my mother in law a very Happy Birthday! I will not report her real age, but she does not look a day over 25:) Hopefully we will be able to celebrate with her soon!
