What's going on with us:
*Ava started preschool at the beginning of the month. She loves it! She wishes school was every day... so do I. :)
*Lexi learned how to ride her bike. It only took a $20 bribe from her dad and she mastered it in about an hour.
*I tried the Atkins diet for about 3 weeks. Missed those carbs, but won't miss those 15 pounds I lost on it. Joined LVAC and I try to go every morning. I actually look forward to exercising again; been really frustrated after having this last baby. It's some "me" time and even at 530am, I'll take it!
*Reese is 4 months old. Went to the Dr. yesterday and she is 11lbs. 3 oz. (5th percentile; on the small side, but doc is not worried). It's really weird to have a petite baby while the older girls were so chunky. Reese has discovered her feet and can suck on her toes, is starting to get interested in toys, and has the biggest smiles for her sisters.
*Got a call from the school yesterday about 1:00, to come pick up Lexi. Apparently, she had stepped on a pencil and it went through her shoe into her foot. I got to the school to find her shoe filled with blood and the nurse wheeling Lexi out in a wheelchair! We went to the doctor (yes, BACK to the dr. we had just been to that morning). She got the wound cleaned out and thankfully no lead was stuck in there. Lexi was back to normal before bed last night, running and dancing. But she made sure to milk the experience for all it was worth!
*We can't wait for General Conference this weekend. And FYI: there are some super cute GC packets you can print out for the kiddos here.
Happy Autumn everybody!

Reese is soooo adorable! I love her eyes and that red hair!
I'm glad Lexi survived the pencil attack. Those things can be dangerous. ;)
Way to go, losing 15 pounds! I have about...well...A LOT to lose! You're awesome.
You are awesome losing that weight! I am living vicariously through you with diet and exercise :).
Poor Lexi! That just sounds awful so I'm glad it wasn't too bad to fix. And $20 at age 7 is pretty awesome motivation :).
Your girls are too darn cute! That Reese is just scrumptious!
Looking at those pictures makes me miss you all even more! Come to Montana for some "real" Fall weather. Its just now getting to be so beautiful with all the trees and shrubs turning color. You are definately "my girl", loving the Fall time of year. Its my favorite as well. Definately glad that Lexi is fine after the pencil attack, ha and that Ava loves school and Reese melts my heart. Like your friends said, you are awesome, losing that weight. Very proud of you Mindy. You look great! Can't wait to see you all again. Love you.
