It seemed liked in one day all the leaves came off the trees. 
We went up to the church to have James run around and get all his energy out but he just stuck to me like glue. He is getting used to the camera and is really interested in it. You can see the lens cap in his hand in the first photo.
Kelly and I are watching our nephew James Denning, Lauren's little boy, while most of my family is on a trip to Italy. Watching him makes me feel apart of the fabulous fun they are having. He is a happy sweet boy that has a lot of energy. I am surprised with how tired I am and how enjoyable it is. He likes the tub and he likes pumpkins.
Clara has always been a looker. Looking around not missing much but now she is getting to be quite animated. These are some of her fun expressions.
On Wednesday the 26th Clara learned to roll over! She can do a 180* and back. She doesn't do it all the time, just once in a while. They say when they start to roll over that is when they learn to sit up.
I go on walks with Clara. One day we set out with my camera and a water bottle at around 11 am, planning to come back at 12, and didn't come back until about 5:00 pm. By the time Kelly came and got me from Aunt Non's I was very beat and very hungry.Clara and I had walked around the neighborhood and took some photos of homes. This is one of my favorite homes here in Pocatello. Even though I think it probably is small, I don't think I would mind living in that house.
Clara is getting ready for Halloween. She really likes the new outfit that Aunt Non got for her. The dress on the witch flips up to reveal orange shorts. Clara is likes to play with it. 
On Saturday we had a Luau for our reunion. Is was sunny and hot. They roasted a pig and had a dancing contest. The pig was very good. It was fun to see people and help out. It is kind of funny to look back and remember what it was like and how people are different. I hope I am a little different too. I made some mistakes but had a lot of good moments and fun times. I had to take off early to take care of my daughter but Colette, Val, and Shannon (Left to right) came over for a little bit and talked with me. I was really glad I went!
Last Sunday Kelly blessed Clara. Kelly did a nice job. In the blessing he felt impressed to bless her with a sense of humor that will help her through trials and to enjoy life. I think she will. Aunt Non was nice to let us have a party over at her place and worked really hard to get the yard and house looking really nice for us. The first photo is her waiting to get dressed and looking bored Kelly took it. She looked gorgeous and was so nice during the prayer. I was so scared that she would cry though the whole thing and I wouldn't be able to hear the blessing but the Lord was kind. 
These are what we Hatfield's call Ableskivers. They are balls of Danish pancake goodness! You can fill them with apples or other fruit but we prefer to just put maple syrup on them and gobble them up. Grandma Dorothy would make them for us when we would come to visit. 
This represents from about 10 o'clock at night till about 3:30 in the afternoon worth of dipers. At first they don't smell but start to when they have sat out for about 24 hours. They say the older they get the fewer dipers they go through.
This is what Kelly and I had for dinner tonight. Lettuce, Summer Squash, Milk, and Steak. Look and that hunk of meat! I didn't even eat half of it. We have a lot of left-overs. Not that they are really very good but I had forgotten how much fun it was to take photos of things other then Clara.
So yesterday we put her down for a nap and two hours later I pick her up and she was heavier and she looked bigger. I think it is amazing so I took more photos today! I love her!
You can definitely tell what I like to take photos of. Of Course it is expected that the doting mother would be sure to make everyone look at as many photos of her darling girl as she could.
In the last three weeks I have had two baby showers! The frist was a combined shower with my sister Lib. It was held down in Salt Lake by my sister-in-law Brandy. The second was with my buncho group at Tasha Williams house. It was so fun and Katy Rowlings made me this diper cake! I think it is so cute! Thanks to all who put time, efffort and money into helping Kelly and I get ready for out baby girl. Love you all and am so greatful.
