We attempted pre-made cookie dough. Hmmm. Maybe we'll rethink that one.

Happy Halloween!

We are looking pretty goofy these days...













Our complex is so great. They hold a lot of parties and fun get togethers for the residents. This is Ruger painting a pumpkin at the Halloween party last night. They also had cupcakes, cookies, and juice for everyone. Ruger tried to eat the cupcake, but only got a mouthful of frosting that was piled about an inch thick. They looked great, but kinda a lot of frosting...Sorry no pic of that.



















These are our new chairs! Kinda a crazy, but I totally love it!













They are a perfect size for Ruger. He has been pretty pleased with them.


























This is our family pumpkin we carved for the holiday. Ruger wasn't so sure about the gunk inside. It was a little iffy.













What a nut. We are at the beach here waiting for the tram to pick us up.













And this is my handsome husband. He was trying to teach me how to use our little point and shoot camera and threw in a free pose for me to practice on.













Ruger outside the library. We go every Thursday for story time and them eat out lunch outside by the fountain.





























The first video of Ruger playing at the beach, the second is of Ruger and a friend laughing at the missionaries' puppet skills, and the third is just of Ruger saying a lot of the words he knows.

You might be getting tired of all the pics of Ruger, but we think he's just so especially cute, that we can't resist putting them up to share. :)

The pictures are in backwards order. The first happened last, and the last happened first.

Yesterday I took Ruger to the mall. He loves playing the toy cars and especially getting to ride in one of those car-like strollers. He just spins and spins the steering wheel!He's even getting pretty good at actually saying, "car" now.














This is Ruger's devious face after climbing up into...














This all by himself. I was looking on the computer with my back turned to him, ignoring all the grunts and whines I heard coming from his direction. When I turned around, low and behold, my little man had climbed in to the high chair and was standing in it so he could reach the light switches.














We went to the zoo this week for free! Ruger was a little nervous of the tigers, but who wouldn't be considering how CLOSE he got to them!














Then we saw the LIONS! They were really neat this time! They were running, playing, and ROARING at us for a long time! Usually they are asleep when we see them, so it was pretty exciting to see. This one we took a picture of came right up next to the fence so we could see his face. His eyes were bright yellow. I always thought that was something they did in photographs to make them look cooler, but no, it's real. Even more real than in pictures. I mean they were REALLY yellow!


























This is Ruger with a friend, Nathaniel Gardner. They were watching Toy Story all snuggled up together, so I thought it made for a good picture.

Some old pics

Ruger loves his grandparents...



















These are all from the extended Phelps Family Reunion and some from the our short get-together with the Gregerson's and Grandma Hunsaker during the summer. What a fun family we have!
