Baby Felicity



One of my good friends, Jen, had her baby this past weekend. We went to the hospital to visit and Rayden fell in love with little Felicity. She held her and kissed her a lot and whenever someone else held her, she wanted her back. Rayden sure loves babies and will be such a good big sister in a couple months!

Another New Do




So here is just some pictures of another new hairdo that I did on Rayden. Sometimes it gets boring doing the same things over and over so you have to do something different. I pulled her bangs back in this one too.....she looked a little older without them!

A Hunting We Will Go





So we had a few flies in our house and Rayden was going to get all of them! She was having a grand ole time hunting these flies. She would run down the hall saying "Fly, come back!" Then run back and say "Darn fly!" Who would have thought that hunting flies could be so entertaining.

Harvest Festival Fun




Yesterday we went to the Harvest Festival that they have every year in Phoenix. They have tons of stuff there for kids to do. Face painting, pony rides, pumpkin patches, hay jumps, wagon rides, crafts and all kinds of other things. Rayden had a great time there and did a lot of the activities. What a fun day it was!

Face Painting



Rayden loves getting her face painted, so that is the first thing we did when we got to the Harvest Festival. They had so many cute things to chose from and we thought she would pick a pumpkin or a ghost but she wanted a butterfly. She was such a good girl and sat still the whole time. She still has the butterfly on her face because she doesn't want me to wash it off! :)

Pony Ride




Rayden had an absolute blast riding the ponies this year!! She got up on the pony with no problem and didn't even ask for me to go with her. She went around a couple of times with a grin on her face the whole time. When she was done she petted the pony and said "Bye bye pony" in a really sad voice. She had so much fun!

Wagon Ride




We all took a wagon ride while at the Harvest Festival. Rayden loved the big horses and also enjoyed riding in the wagon all over the farm.

Picking Pumpkins





Rayden loved going out in the pumpkin patch this year and looking at all the pumpkins but she had a hard time making up her mind. We ended getting a big pumpkin and a little pumpkin...........now we just have to carve them!

Just for Rose :)



Ahhhhh so Rose wanted and belly picture so I guess here it is. THis was taken when I was 22 weeks so about 3 1/2 weeks ago. Everything is going well so far and the doctor said that she will induce me around 38 weeks, so he will be born in December! And for those of you who don't know his name will be Parker Kellen Grant. Rayden loves to talk to Parker and it is sooo cute when she says his name.

Painting Fun





Jeff and I decided to be brave and get Rayden some fingerpaints! She had such a great time with them and now asks to paint all of the time! She did want her finger washed off A LOT while she was painting but she did a great job and managed not to get it all over the place. Soooooo much fun.

A Fun Visit








Last weekend we headed over to Grants Pass because Grandpa Larry and Grandma Becky were in town. Rayden, Rayna and Grandma made cookies together and they had so much fun, and fun eating them too! Rayna and Rayden of course had a blast playing together like they always do. Grandpa and Grandma also brought birthday presents for Rayden and she got a new Mickey movie, some neat bath stuff, an adorable new coat and a pretend tool set. Rayden loves all of her new stuff.........especially the movie and the tools! What a great visit we had and we can't wait to see them again. Thanks for everything!!!

Day at the Train Park






A couple of weekends ago we went over to the train park when they were actually open. There were so many things to see there and we had a lot of fun. Rayden really enjoyed watching all the trains, riding the little ones and going inside the big ones! We are thinking about doing her birthday party there next year since she liked it so much. What a fun day we had!

Waiting in Line




The lines were pretty long at the Train Park to ride the trains but luckily they went really fast! It was also nice that they had some mist going for the people waiting out in the sun, it didn't seem too hot at all!

Train Rides





So while we were there we went on two train rides! Rayden just loved it and loved looking at all of the things we passed and loved waving at all the people we went by. There were two dark tunnels that the train goes through on the ride and she didn't care for those too much because they were so dark, but the rest of the ride was great!!! What a blast we had there and we can't wait to go back!
