Josh took this picture on purpose while we both weren't looking...? Where did I get this character?

My little quarterback watching football with Dad. We do this every Saturday cause Josh says "Oh by the way, there are some GOOD games on this Saturday, so we need to reserve time for them." I'm just glad I have learned to enjoy football. :)
I can just see the years of Saturdays ahead with Michael and Josh watching football together. Here we go.
Mmmmm... Josh's orange chicken. Josh makes great chinese food. After putting in all the work, though, we determined that Panda is faster and tastes almost as good. Almost.
Can you believe the personality in this little face? He is getting so big! I love my little Michael. Sigh.

Random, Bathtime, Football, and Orange Chicken
Here's Michael being cute
Josh and I went to our home teacher's house to paint pumpkins--they are Andy and Jen.
And Michael being cute again...
Lil bit o' fun
Guitar Heroine! (me, of course) We hung out with Josh's PA friends and their families. I was pretty good at Guitar Hero for my first time playing. Josh thinks he's so good, but really I'm right up there with him. Our PA friends are: Austin, Sydnee, Augie and Jentry.
Michael and my foot!
Super Saturday! We did some sewing projects for Super Saturday and it was a ball. Here are some of my friends--Eileen, Carrie (who probably had her baby on Thursday) and Sister Walker.

Believe it or Not
So if you're reading this blog then you probably know me, and if you know me then you know that I can't cook. A Christmas present I got a few years back says it all. It was a cookbook compiled by my sister Kristi. The message inside the front cover said "For Chef Steph--The Cook That Can't Cook Anything!" She included recipes like mashed potatoes, Bisquick biscuits (Bisquick and water), and Chili, Chips'n Cheese. Yes, I actually used them.
Well, guess what? Being away from mom's house has made me crave some good food and now that I have the time, I've been doing some cooking! I don't necessarily enjoy it yet, but I'm getting there. I said to Josh the other day "I'm starting to get excited to eat my own food." Now that is saying something.
This is a chicken pot pie that I've made several times. Thanks to mom's great pie crust, this is definitely one of my favorite dishes.
Weekend with them Allred's!
Ryan, Crystal, Emily and Megan came up to visit this weekend. We had a great time! On Friday we hung out and played games and on Saturday we went to a thrift store, watched Psych, and played more games! It was a nice, relaxing weekend. Unfortunately, Ryan and Crystal were both short on sleep because of this nice little air mattress that didn't come with the right pump. They were so uncomfortable since it couldn't get blown up all the way that Crystal slept on our couch and Ryan slept on our recliner. Megan and Emily were the lucky ones with real mattresses. 
We had a lot of fun playing Jenga--Emily was really good at it!
2 Months Old! (a month ago!)
First of all, sorry for the absence. My camera of four years broke about 3 weeks ago and I have had no photos to post. It has been sad. Luckily in September Josh was inspired to have us buy a little videocamera/camera. I was against it, but he talked me into it! I am so glad he did cause we have all these pictures because of it. I took my camera to a camera store to find out how much it would cost to fix. They said $130.00. So I may be using the camera on my videocamera for awhile... I miss my great little camera!
Yes, I know Michael is actually 3 months... today, in fact. But I never posted his 2 month pics so here they are! He is sporting the outfit Holli sent him that says "Road to Indy"
Michael at 2 Months old...
The Fair
We went to the Western Idaho Fair with Michael in September. It was so fun! We had Michael in that carrier for about 5 hours and he did great! I just fed him there and we walked around and he stayed awake the whole time!
