Carolyn's 2nd Birthday
Today we had a party for Carolyn. She turns 2 tomorrow. We can hardly believe how big she is growing. She knows most of her colors, a third of her letters, and most animal names. She is so smart!

God has answered our prayers
It's kind of an odd thing to thank God for, but the Lord has answered our prayers and Jared will be laid off in January. It's so exciting to see how the Lord provides. Because he is getting laid off he will get 40 hours of severance pay, medical insurance coverage through the end of January, and most importantly he will be eligible for unemployment when we go into training with NTM. Another blessing is that he gets to choose what day will be his final day at work, so he will still be able to work until the week before we go to MTC in Missouri. Isn't our God awsome!

26 Cans of Pears
I'm finally done canning! I pushed myself today to get the last of the pears canned before they started going bad. It feels good to be done, despite the fact that I've had to neglect some basic house hold chores. So my house is a mess, but my pears are done. I'm so proud of myself. :)

Pictures with my new camara
Here's what we've been up to. A week ago we went to a friend's house and picked pears. We had lots of fun feeding some to the horses. Carolyn quickly lost her fear of large animals, even Henry got into it. Since then I've been busy canning and dehydrating pears. So far I have 12 cans done.
Jared and I have been struggling to fit in alone time, but we've taken full advantage of the few moments we've gotten.
Henry is really growing. He can sit up all by himself for several minutes. Lately he's been having laughing contests with Carolyn. It's really adorable.
Carolyn has herself just about potty trained. She loves playing with Henry and has begun taking care of her dolls and stuffed animals like mom does Henry, putting them to bed and rocking them. The cutest is when she puts them on the toilet or reads to them.
