Our Little One

Scott and I are both tall and come from relatively tall families, but within each of our families there is a short gene that likes to express itself from time to time. Each family tends to have one child who is significantly shorter than everyone else in the family. Well, we think Brynn might be the little one in our family. In reality she isn't tiny, just average sized, but after having Mason who was always at least in the 95% in height and weight as a baby, she seems so little to us. Today we had her 4 month check up (a couple weeks late) and here are the numbers.
Weight: 13 lbs 10 oz -- 40%(still nearly a pound less than Mason was at 2 months)
Height: 24.5 in -- 49%
I love Brynn more every day and am so glad she is my little girl!! Here are some of her 4 month pictures for you to enjoy.

Ghosts of Halloween Past

It's that time of year again. When we dress up and make fools of ourselves, but who cares, it's Halloween! As Scott and I were deciding what to be this year, we took a look back at our past 4 years of costumes and wow, were we proud. I thought you might enjoy a good laugh at our expense so here you go.

2004

Ahhh... the happily engaged couple. We were dressed up like 2 people in love, can't you tell.

2005

Scott sporting his authentic little league uniform. If you can't read the hat it says Orem City Champs 9-10. Oh yeah baby, that's why I married him. The happy couple once again. I had to work that night so my work scrubs doubled as my costume. Lame, I know. While I was at work that night Scott attended a couples Halloween party with Tyson Camp. Yes, my husband is the sexy blonde on the right. I had no idea this costume took place until I received the photo evidence weeks later.

2006

This costume won us the best costume award at the annual Bell Halloween Bash. I'm the troop leader and Scott's the boy scout. Nice legs, Scotty.

2007

Our darling little pumpkin, Mason. I find it unfair that this 6 month old Mason looked like a girl with his very long, dark hair and now my 4 month old Brynn looks like a boy with her very little, light hair. What's up with that?

Boring parents that didn't dress up. Don't worry, that won't happen again.

2008

Curious George and the Man with the Yellow Hat. One of my proudest moments in life.

Scott dressed up as Mickey Mouse at my request so all the spandex would take some of the attention off all my yellow. What a fun Halloween.

2009

You'll have to wait until Halloween to see, but I will tell you that our costume was awesome enough to win the best Couple Costume at the Bell Halloween Bash.

So tell me, what was your greatest Halloween costume?
