cinnamon waterfalls

Have I ever mentioned how much I LOVE waterfalls? If not now you know. I cant get enough of them and guess what! There are oodles of them in the Twin Falls area! This is one that is just below Twin in the canyon. A very short little walk and tada!

You can go right underneath it :D

Paige, letting me know what she wanted for dinner. Isn't she just the sweetest?

Now for the cinnamon part of our title. I had been in the kitchen cleaning with Paige playing with the spices like she usually does, I went into the dining room for a minute when it got strangely quite in the kitchen...this is what I found.

cinnamon sugar everywhere! She loved it and made quite the mess. She was so cute I couldn't even be mad, not even a little, although I was slightly worried about the sugar high she was bound to experience.

Beginning of fall looks bright

Our trip to the county fair :)

This was a sad moment for daddy, he had to break down and admit that his little girl LOVES dolls! Ive been wanting to get her one for a while, but Marty has been against it saying that Paige wouldn't even care cause she doesnt really like dolls, well when we walked by this little exhibit of antique dolls Paige got so excited and happy that not even daddy can deny it anymore :)



Paige Loved the animals just as much as she loved the dolls. It was so cute to see her get so excited over them!

I have a niece! Her name is Kymber Yvette Checketts and she is absolutely adorable! I love getting nieces and nephews, I think thery are the next best thing to having your own, even better in the sense that I didnt have to spend 9 months puking my guts out and getting so round I couldnt see my feet, not only that but I didn't have to go through any labor and don't have a newborn baby that I have to get up with all night. Yes, I like getting neices and nephews :) The pictures are kinda blurry and you can thank my sister-in-laws hubby for his mad picture taking skills.

I really wasn't as ticked off as I look in this pic. I was actually happy. Pathetic, I really need to work on my facial expressions.

Wo is Miss Paige

WARNING: excessive use of the word little.

Our sweet little miss Paige has had a run of bad luck lately. It started with her getting a uti, followed by a stuffy nose and perhaps some allergies sprinkled on top and now we have the cherry on the to (I hope) she has an ear infection. Poor little girl! I feel so bad! Shes acting fine for the most part, but I can tell she doesn't feel good, she is extra clingy and cries a lot more than normal. She is a little trooper tho, still wandering around exploring everything. The only other topic of a little worry is she isn't gaining weight. We all know she has always been small, but she hasn't gained any weight in at least two months. I swear I feed her regularly and I am often amazed at how much such a little body can put down, but alas no weight gain. A problem that I would be more than thrilled to have to put up with myself, not so much for my little girl. Lets all cross our fingers and hope it is nothing serious and that she is simply going to be one of those lucky people who are just skinny their entire life.On a more positive note Paige has recently taken to "walking" around our apartment. Whether shes using a wall, a chair, or even a book she has decided that walking is the thing to do and she does a lot of it. My little girl is growing up! She is also slowly deciding that dad may be ok after all. For the longest time mom was the only choice, now, every once in a while she will choose daddy over mommy. I think its so cute! This is a HUGE step in my opinion. Lets not forget, mom will always be the best!

Peeksures!
