Yea the UTES won!!!
Tyler began the day with pre-game chalk decorating of the driveway and car windows...
.. belonging to our neighbor BYU fans, of course!
Now we are glad to report that they are decorated appropriately.
We all dressed up and went to a friend's house to watch the show with a crowd. For an un-eventful game, it sure had a great ending.
Niki is EIGHT MONTHS OLD as of yesterday. I can't believe it! She's a crazy girl. Unlike our careful Lily, she's not afraid to do something dangerous (like crawl head first of the bed, climb on the fireplace, or pinch her hands in the cupboard doors) over and over again. She has more bumps and bruises right now than Lily's had her entire life.
I was fishing a whole baby dill pickle out of Niki's mouth today (yes, she loved it instead of spitting it out like we thought she would) and I felt, her first tooth!!! on the bottom right. Yea. A big excitement for the baby that wants to eat everything we are eating. I bought a hand crank food grinder to make baby food for her last week. Every time she sees me get it out she gets so excited and starts salivating over the thought of "real food." Soon she'll be able to grind those foods all by herself.
Next to Elmo, Niki really loves Baby Doll. Lily is quite protective of her dolls so Niki rarely gets a chance to play with them. Nevertheless, she is persistant. Niki grabs a hold of Baby Doll's hand and takes her along as she plays. Niki's favorite place to play is the fireplace. Something about that step is just the perfect height for standing up against. Anyways, it's funny to see how hard Niki concentrates on pulling Baby Doll up to see the fireplace too. She'll start out, baby in hand, get half-way to standing, let go so she can use her hand to balance herself, get up and realize she droped the doll, then try hard to bend back down to pick it up only to fall back onto her bottom and start over again. It cracks me up.
