The end is in sight!!!

I think 9 months old is a hard age. At least it is hard for Mr Cawas. The last couple weeks have been tough for our little man! Well it turned cold here, and fast. So naturally we all get colds, for little Cawas he gets his colds in his chest. He lost his voice, so bad i could not even hear him crying in the other room. It was so sad. Then he is at that awakward crawling stage so he is not very corrdinated, so he had 4 overlapping bruises on his forehead. (it's hard to see)

Well if you look really close you can see the little guy. Ya thats a long way!!! Well the worst mom of the year award goes to...... oh ya me!!!!!! Do you see the gate off to the right. Yep, thats where the gate was when Mr Cawa's went from where i am, down to where he is!!!! Oh ya, worst mom EVER!!! I felt so bad for my boy. He was fine though, just a little scared and he did have a carpet burn on top of his bruised forehead. Ya like i said, not the best couple of weeks for cawas!

Then after all that, Cawa's got a virus called Rosieola. It's a really bad fever for like 4 days then he breaks out in spots. It was not a very good week and we had to go down to Utah for grandpa greats funeral, so cawa's at least got to cuddle with his grandpa. But he was pretty unhappy for about 3 weeks total. No smiling, no laughing. no playing!! No fun for anyone envolved! 2 trips to the dr's, lots of medicine, and lots of sleepless nights, the end had to be near. Then yesterday we got our little boy back. He was playing, and laughing(you could actually hear his voice) i was so happy that he felt better. Nothing worse than sick kids!!!

Smell my Feet!!!

Guess who?????
Oh ya baby!!! Its Bret Michaels!!! Okay it really is Brook! For those of you who don't know who Bret Michaels is he is the lead singer of the band Poisen and also the star of Rock Of Love!!! We had this halloween party at a friends house and we went as Bret Michaels and i was just a groupie (ya i didn't look near as good as Brook, thats why no pic!!) We had tons of fun, I totally forget how fun it is to get dressed up and go out!!

RAWRR!!!!
Mr Cawa's was a little lion for Halloween and he actually loved his costume. He crawled all around with his tail dragging behind him it was so cute!!!


Camden chose her own costume. I tried to get her to be sponge bob, a princess, a fairy, anything but she said she wanted to be a spooky witch!!!(Like mother, like daughter i guess) She looked very cute, i mean spooky! She had so much fun trick or treating. She says trick or treat, smell my feet!! It's funny but don't smell her feet cause really, they STINK!!!!




My two little goblins!!!!!




Halloween Fun!!!

We had such a fun halloween this year! Camden is at the perfect age to totally get into it and i think that halloween is by far her favorite holiday. Cawa's is not so sure!!
We made this "Spooky" cake (as Camden calls it) for the ward halloween party and it turned out really cute!!

This was the kids contribution to making the cake!! Hurry and eat as much batter as we can get before mom can do the dishes, then it was on to frosting. Like they don't get enough candy anyway lets load up on the sugar please!!!!


Brook and Blake carved the pumpkins and even if they don't admit it they did have fun!!



I figured the kids were to little for the carving so we bought a Haunted House for them to make. As you can tell by their faces it think it was a hit!! Thanks grandma for the spooky jammies!
