Chayse is turning into a very very funny girl. She is definately very opinionated and knows what she wants. She LOVED her bumbo chair until she started to roll over and now she won't even sit in it for 2 seconds without making sure we know she wants OUT. She rolls everywhere... across rooms... into everything. It is sooo great! I took her to the dr. yesterday and she weighs a WHOPPING 13 lbs. 5 oz... which is actually less than what she weighed a month ago... 13 lbs 8oz. She is just so tiny! Well she has also discovered BITER BISQUITS. She is in love with them and goes crazy to chew on them for hours~
In other news it is harvest break right now so the kids have been out of school for almost 2 weeks. Got to love that..... They are going a little stir crazy, but we have been keeping busy with our "winterizing" of the house AKA CLEANING every inch because mom is sick of dirt. They don't think it is too fun, but I try to reward with something if they will actually do what they are asked. So far they haven't gotten many rewards! :)

So far they haven't gotten many rewards! :)We had such a good weekend with Drew's family. Brady and Rachael were here so we got to celebrate their birthdays, Clynt's birthday and have a fun fun fun baby shower for Rachael all in 2 days. And let's not forget conference! It was so great to be with family and be spiritually uplifted also. We had so much good food and such good fun! I have been trying for months to perfect my bread dough like Patty and so this weekend she helped me make it and did step by step instruction so today I had to make some on my own and it actually turned out okay! I will get it down eventuallY!
I do have to admit that I have bad habits in the kitchen. I didn't have a dishwasher for sooo many years that I got into the bad habit of STUFFING dirty dishes into my oven when company was coming over so I didnt' have to clean them really fast. Well last night I did because Rhonda and I were canning Soup Stock and today I turned on my oven to heat it up for my bread dough and OOPS... I forgot to take my dishes out. Too bad I didn't realize until about 30 min. later when my house was smokey and smelling really bad. How embarrassing... but even more embarrassing is that it isn't the first time this has happened! :)

Heehee...I got a good laugh beaucse that has happened to me too! You are super women! You got lots done! Glad you had a great weekend!
You nerd! Seriously who does that?!?! I think it is awesome that you melted those things and even better that you are learning to make bread. You really can do it all can't you??? Anyway, glad to hear that you had a great weekend and that the kids are still surviving harvest break...Mine are barely hanging on. One more week!!!! (but who's counting?)
Oh my gosh, Chayse is so adorable!! I have got to see her in person! Good grief, what kind of friends are we. And I had no idea that Brady and his wife had a baby. It's so fun to see how all of those Cutlers are growing. We really need to get together and catch up!
That is so funny! I can remember times when I have done the whole dirty dishes in the oven thing before. I know of someone who threw all their dirty laundry in the back of the car before company showed up, and no it wasn't me! Isn't it funny the things we all do when we are in a pinch. It sure sound like you have been so busy but are enjoying every minute of it.
I love the melted dishes! Now everyone that comes to your house is going to wonder... 'are there dishes in her oven?'
Chayse is so cute! You taught me the oven trick. Max thinks it is crazy! I love it!
