General

We'll try to catch up on the month of October before it is all over. Now, since less is more (and we don't have less pictures), we will keep the words to a minimum. :)

General Conference - One suggestion for keeping a child entertained during Conference was a dress up box. I think it worked for about ten minutes.

Oh, and cinnamon rolls are a must-have for Conference.First fort built - We were bored on a Sunday evening, so I told Britt to go build a fort . . . and he did. Emilee seemed to enjoy it.

We had to expand the fort so all of us could fit in it.

Family Day - Britt's medical school had a family day this past weekend. It was a chance to praise the students and show off the campus (and shamelessly ask for money from parents/family). Thanks to Britt's Dad for actually getting your camera out.

BIG NEWS

Emilee got bit in nursery this past Sunday!!! I had never truly imagined that happening. I guess I had been more worried about her biting someone else. One of the little boys bit her, but that's really all of the story that I know. A nursery worker got Britt (since I was teaching music in Primary), and by the time he got to Emilee she was already done crying and was back to playing again. Britt sat in for a little bit, but she was doing fine, so he left. What a trooper!

I found out after church when Britt had her show me her arm. I thought, oohh, that looks kind of bad. I wonder what she was doing (I wish I knew the whole story). All Emilee has needed for medicine is lots of kisses to her wrist when she remembers that she has an "owie" there. We tried taking a picture of it after her nap, but it does't show up as well on film. Each day it has faded a little more, so I guess we will all survive.

I was secretly hoping this would teach her a lesson to quit biting, but she has still tried to bite us a few times since. Each time I remind her that bites hurt and give "owies," and then she has me kiss her wrist again. Silly little thing! My mom just says she'll grow out of it someday. I hope that's right.
