Kevin at 9 months old

Kevin wasn't taking his afternoon nap at all, so he let me enjoy taking some pictures again. It felt great to do some photography. I kept the mode on Av, me in charge of the aperture settings, and got some winners. Kevin's adorable clothing is courtesy of my awesome cousin, Mel. She has great taste! Thanks, Mel!

Hi Momma! Here's my big smile for you!

This week, our home passed its inspection. Nothing major broken, yes! All it needs is some blinds, which will come in time. I brought some roses home from the inspection, putting them in a vase to enjoy. There are so many rose bushes that need love at our new home.

Conference today was wonderful. I heard bits and pieces of the morning session, with Ethan running around the house. At times, he would come sit with me on the couch and listen to the speakers for a few moments, then run off to play. The night before, I showed Ethan President Monson on LDS.org, preparing him for today's session. Today, he was upset that President Eyring was conducting, and that he couldn't see Monson yet. The kid is adorable but has no patience. I don't know if toddlers are patient, but they sure receptive to the spirit. Ethan heard the choir sing "My Heavenly Father Loves Me" and started singing along. He loves to see President Monson. Toddlers are so visual. The new gospel art picture book is gold for teaching your little ones! Soak up conference!
