Recap

September has been really busy for us so far, with new school routines, activities, winter-prep, and just the everyday thing. Here are some pics from our last two weeks...

Anna enjoys hacking into my phone and taking photos. Usually there are 50 shots of her foot (no kidding... last week I had to delete FIFTY PHOTOS taken in a 10 second period)... but anyway, here's a cute one of her sister... obviously taken by accident, as her foot is a bit lower...
 She'll be crawling any day now, but in the meantime, Claire enjoys scooting around on the floor, grabbing anything in sight... luckily that is often a book... 
 Keith and I wrapped up a season of outdoor concerts at Red Butte Garden, one of the most beautiful, wonderful concert venues around...
 Anna has quietly, subtly started wearing undies and using the potty...
 Keith has been doing a lot of work at the cabin, moving wood, getting the snow cat and snowmobile working, ordering a hot tub, and making space for a fire pit...

 Anna is loving school!
 Claire is loving being able to sit up and play with whatever toys, crumbs, shoes her siblings leave lying around...
She is also loving sitting in her high chair and eating real food. Squash, apples, peas, sweet potatoes, cereal, hummus, guacamole... she likes it all so far. Yeah, third kid is trying everything right away :)
Luke started playing soccer (one practice & one game each week) and is really getting into it...he's on the green team...check out those adorable tiny cleats!
September weather has been fluctuating between rainy (great for our new grass) and gorgeous. We're enjoying our new front patio...
Did I mention that Anna loves school? Though she doesn't need to bring anything at this point, she insists on wearing her backpack...
Luke's soccer game...I just love the contrast between the little 4 year olds and the mountain in the background...
Claire attended her first tailgate for the Utah vs. Oregon St. game...
Our friends Yasmin & Billy moved to Colorado a couple of weeks ago and we inherited their (fully stocked) garden plots, at a neighborhood garden two blocks away. The kids love riding bikes there with me to water and harvest the tomatoes, basil, cucumbers, and other goodies that are in abundance right now. Nice view, right?
