The month of November came and went in the blink of an eye. We started it off with the Veterans Day Parade in downtown Mesa! The kids loved all the parade festivities, and then we ate at one of my favorite spots Sweetcakes! Jons parents Marni and Eric came for a visit in the middle of the month. We love visitors especially from loved ones. The kids had a wonderful time getting to know their Grandma and Grandpa Anderson from Canada better. We played at the park, went out to eat, saw the new Gilbert temple, and went to the Mesa Temple lights! While they were here Wyatt picked up a new talent... He now crawls all over. He will even chase the kids down and make them laugh. He wants to be everywhere his big brother and sister are. Also he will crawl all over the house to find out where mom is at. He is eight months old now and has four teeth, beautiful ivory skin, walnut brown hair, blue eyes, and he is a very big boy! He will say mama, dada, and babbles in his baby talk. He doesn't like to sleep through the night anymore to his mommy's detriment and we have had a rough time figuring out why he is waking up so often now. Other than that though you are a Joy and a light to your family. Bentley loves school and making art projects. He has made so many friends and his teacher always says what a great kid he is...but we already knew that:) Bailey is active as usual, but I have learned to channel some of her energy into helping me around the house. I give her a mop and she follows me around "cleaning" while I am getting done what I need to. She loves to tease her brothers, and she loves to prance around and perform. She can throw a great tantrum and starts to cry every time we tell her she can't do something. She has started to show interest in potty training and pretty much goes all on her own.
Thanksgiving Day we went to my mom and dad's house and enjoyed a delicious dinner, dessert, and visiting with family. I love my family and think they are the best! I am so thankful for the gospel and the knowledge that my family can be eternal. Also for my health, my kids health, and for Jons work! That night my mom and I went out and partook in the Black Friday shopping sales that now start Thursday night but whatever. We got some good deals and made a dent in our Christmas shopping. The next day the boys went out and rode motorcyles, rangers, and shot guns in the dessert. That pretty much sums up our November:)
