September little things

Here are some random pictures from the month:

We love our family bike rides and Aiden had decided he wanted to work up to a 15-mile bike ride. So on Labor Day, we invited Aaron & Samantha & kids and my parents to join us and we did it!  We rode along the Murdock Canal trail and it was a beautiful night.  For little kids on little bikes, 15 miles is far but they all did awesome and *hardly* complained.
 {Babysitting Swap}
We do a babysitting swap with Aaron and Samantha so when they go out, we watch all 7 kids and when we go out, they watch them all.  It is a great set-up because the kids love spending time with their cousins and we like our date nights!
 Callie isn't fond of me doing her hair but sometimes I can get her to hold still enough to give her a little pony tail. It is far from perfect cause she is a little wiggle-worm and then tries to pull it out, but it is cute while it lasts.  I love having a girl!
 Now that Aiden is gone all day at school and Brennan doesn't go to preschool until the afternoon, these two play all morning long. Brennan is always looking out for his baby sis.  I love that they are such good buddies! 
 We had an extended Curtis family party up in Salt Lake one night and since most of them are Ute fans, Nate made sure we represented.
 Sorry for the bath picture but it was too cute not to post.
 The Nike Brigade - Aiden and Brennan and Paige love when they all wear their matching Nikes on the same day.
 Grandpa Cosper turned 90 so we had a get together to celebrate him.  It was great spending the evening with some of Nate's extended family.
 Kamilla came over for a visit and brought little Dakota with her so we had to snap a picture of these two cute 2nd cousins.
 Andrew came in town for a business recruiting trip and brought Natalie along too. I watched her for a couple of days while Andrew was recruiting.  Natalie is such a sweetheart so it really wasn't too crazy watching two one-year-olds...just a little busy :)
 It is impossible to get these two to look at the camera at the same time.
 My parents took us all to farm country on Friday night and we had a great time!  It started raining halfway through so we hung out inside for a few minutes until it passed and then we went back out and we practically had the entire place to ourselves.  
 Callie's first pony ride!
 We went out for ice cream after to end the fun night.
So many other things happened in September - like Fathers and Sons for Nate and the boys, the Ogden Temple dedication, flag football began, date night to Swig and the movies, multiple showers, my first BUNCO night, and other play dates and family dinners. It was a great month and now it is already October!
