So here is a recap of the last few weeks. We finally settled down into a new ward and we are very excited that it is a family ward! As you can see in the pictures below we were so happy to have Dad come out for Mercedes's baby blessing. She looked so cute in the huge fluffy dress. Mercedes has also officially been to her first BYU football game, GO COUGARS! This week we decided to carve pumpkins and make Carmel apples for family night. They were so good and we finished just in time for me to put Mercedes down for bed and head out to work.

Here is the pumpkin that Josh carved while I made the apples. If you can't tell in the picture the pumpkin is a mummy.


THis is sme and Mercedes just before I am off to work.


Here is Josh showing off his handy work


This is Mercedes and Dad relaxing before game day.


This is Mercedes dressed up in her bee outfit just before we went to a party.


Mercedes has started to give a sneaky smile and this is a mild form of that smile.


We often like to nod off in the middle of the day.


Here is beautiful Mercedes in her blessing dress.



Mercedes now likes to put anything and everything in her mouth.


Mercedes and Grandpa


Happy girl


Mercedes loves to look at the camera. The only problem is that she stops smiling the second that we pull it out.

Hey Bert. Thanks for putting this up. It totally made my morning. It is so fun to see how big Mercedes is now. She is looking more and more 'shaw' as she gets older. I cannot wait to see her. I really wish we lived closer so that I could see her more regularly. Too cute.
P.S. Those apples look delicious. Will you send me one in the mail??

I am so glad that you finally posted!!! Mercedes looks so different and is no longer in that fresh tiny baby stage. She is getting so big and she is a good mix of you two. I am so excited to see her in a few months. You are looking good Burt! Your hair is really nice. I am so impressed with the apples. I tried to make some and they didn't work out at all. hmmmmm Love ya
