HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

Our little pumpkin is all tuckered out. She had her first immunizations yesterday. It was a traumatic experience for us all. I'm pretty sure it was most traumatizing for Mae, but I have to admit I cried with her. She fell asleep while we were waiting for the doctor and woke up to the doctor poking and prodding her......so she was already worked up and then came the shots. We have never seen her cry like she did. I made Drew come with me to the appointment for support; he was more than willing to come along. He must have been a little too anxious to get the appointment over with because we got a speeding ticket on the way there. We aren't looking forward to the 4 month appointment when it happens all over again. Neither of us know if we can handle it again......maybe we should ask Mae if she can. haha She is doing great now! Hopefully next time doesn't include another speeding ticket.

Thanks Grandma Scarbrough for the pumpkin outfit!!!! 

We are Family.....

We had all of Drews family here a few weekends ago. It was fun having everyone all together. We went to the BYU game against New Mexico......it was cold but we won so it was worth it! Below is all of us sporting our BYU pride.
Courtney took some spur-of-the-moment family pictures for us and we LOVE them! We just adore our little family. Mae keeps us smiling non-stop. She's even smiling with us now, its so fun trying to work smiles out of her. We cannot believe how big she has gotten. She is growing like a champ! And THANKS TO KSENIA and ZACH for the cute dress Mae is wearing!

Life has lost its meaning...

I woke up yesterday morning with a feeling of complete excitement for the game. Went to work and read all the pre-game commentary online. Kyle came into work, we talked about the game for over an hour like little boys playing with fireworks for the first time. Hailey, Mae, and I went over to Kyle's to watch the most important game yet. Since I have been a student at BYU, I have never seen them lose. Last night, I did. Like some dude said in Lord of the Rings, "Dark have been my dreams, as of late."

I bring the fire

Mae likes to dance when she gets home from church. She puts her leggings on and becomes a different person. Who knew?

FYI

Drew and I have decided we would like to make our blog private. We are sorry for the inconvenience but feel with the new little one we would like more privacy on the world wide web. PLEASE e-mail me your name and e-mail address or blog address so we can add you to our list of invites. haileyscarbrough@gmail.com We love keeping in touch with you all through our blog and yours. We don't want to lose anyone! We will be going private October 12th. Hope to hear from you so we can keep you on the list and keep in touch. Thanks everyone!

I can never think of a clever post title!

Mal's birthday was a few weeks ago so we had a mini party for her before she headed off to the retirement home to play bingo with some old folks. Drew and I LOVE having her here in Provo living up the BYU experience with us. It blows our minds that she is in college now and that she is 19! She is pretty much the coolest! Love ya Mal Gal!

This is the stack of mini bundt cakes I made for her birthday cake. Her request was chocolate cake, ganache and raspberry. Its no "Great Wall of Chocolate Cake" from P.F. Changs, but it was still tastey.
The same weekend, Drew's brother and sister in-law, Phillip and Dana, came to town with their little boy, Caleb. We couldn't get over how big Caleb (10 months) looked compared to Mae. We know she will get bigger and she already is....but it was hard to imagine her his size.
We finally got Mae's crib set up. My Mom brought the bumpers and crib skirt she made with her when she came to help us with Mae after she was born. We LOVE how they turned out! Its exactly what I was picturing. She also brought my baby blanket (hanging on the right side of the crib) that my Grandma Connie made for me when I was a baby. I love that Mae gets to use it too.
Mae is still sleeping in her bassinet in our room but we thought we would see how she liked her crib. So far so good! :) She was just chillin' in there for a good half hour or so. Let's hope she still likes it that much when she starts sleeping in it every night.
We have so many pictures of her sleeping its kind of rediculous but she's just so adorable. I love her little foot sticking out of her gown and how balled up she is. Precious!

GO COUGS!
