Karen Plays

This last week Karen has started really playing with things; anything from toys to diapers to hair, or anything she can get her hands on. It can be cute but also a pain since her 'playing' is really just putting anything within reach into her mouth. Her food this week is peaches, which she seems to like less than the peas and the pears which she had before. She always makes a face like "whoa, what's going on here?" but then eats lots of them anyway.

Conference last week was really good; we watched/heard the sessions in different places each time. Sat. Morning we went to a church, where it was basically us and the missionaries (like 10 of them). Sat. afternoon we went to Seth and Kirsten Higginson's (and baby Autumn). Sun. morning we went to Gary and Mindy Larson (and Maggie and Sophie), after which we went for a nice walk and I got really bad blisters on my feet because I was wearing bad sandals. Sun. afternoon we didn't get to see because Karen was tired of being away from home, so we just went home and sat around. It turned out to be a good thing though because she pooped all over the place just at the time the session was getting over, so it was good to be at home for that.

Other than that... this weekend is Fall Break, which is nice. After BYU we're not used to having any breaks during the semester. This is only Monday and Tuesday, but it'll be nice to have a couple days where we can catch up on sleep a bit and Karen can have some extra Daddy time.

Last thing of note: we get to be back in our 'normal' building for church starting Sunday. It's supposedly the regular building for our ward, but we've never been inside it. So, if any of you are planning to call us ever, we will now be in church from 11-2 Eastern Standard Time. To end, here are some cute Karen pics.
