Hi there.

Fisher posing for the camera.


He recently started a little pre-school group that a few of us moms are doing. So far Fisher loves it-every week he comes home with the cutest things. It is making me a little nervous for when it is my month :) This picture was taken his first day of school.


The second day he brought home a miniature Fisher along with a picture taken by the mom whose turn it is this month. It is good to know that he poses for everyone with the same face.


Fisher loves his miniature self and carries it around with him. Here he is tucking mini-Fish in with his blankie. :)


This is Fisher experiencing his first McDonald's ice cream cone. I know- pathetic it has taken us almost three years to accomplish this milestone.


Helping mom make pumpkin bread. He loves to help with everything.


We've had another traumatic experience with one of Fisher's stuffed animals.


Thanks Grandma Lund for the glow-in-the-dark pj's. Thankfully only the eyes on the shirt glow. We were a little worried that he wouldn't be able to fall asleep :)


Another pose at the park.


The park we went to was one of the drop off locations for trees and debris from the wind storm that we had a couple weeks ago. Louisville is still cleaning up from it.







Fisher was tempted to go and play in the trees. He was contemplating whether is was worth the wrath of mom to go and play where he knew he wasn't supposed to.


Fisher has started to climb out of bed in the morning and come into our room around 7:00. This has been a hard transition for me and I am having to change my sleep schedule. Mostly it means that I can't stay up reading until 2:00 or 3:00 in the morning anymore (which means I will be reading a lot less now.) While I try to wake up Fisher hangs out with a snack in my bed.

Fisher Rockin' to Rare Earth

Shouldn't the temperatures be dropping soon?

Summer in Louisville...one of my least favorite things.
Fall in Louisville...one of my favorite things.
Hurry up temperatures. It is time to DROP. Humidity- go away. I detest your very existence. I am ready to start going outside again!

For all of our family and friends living out west you probably have no idea what these are but the folks out here play a game called cornhole. Todd and a few of his friends decided to make their own sets because apparently it is fun to play. (I haven't actually played it yet so I can't say.) On another note, I have an extremely happy husband now that he is able to watch the BYU and Utah games all the way out here in Kentucky. Thank goodness for cable and Direct TV picking up the Mountain West.

On the never ending quest to "domesticate Meagan," I made some bows the other day for an enrichment activity. Thanks to Michelle for her patience :) Andrea &Michele, I don't think you will be requesting me to make any for you anytime soon since I like the mondo huge flowers. Hee hee.


Too bad for Fisher that I didn't have any female models to work with. Too bad for me he chose to use this particular smile for the camera. I will use this to torture him later on in life...along with the ponytail, headband and high heel pictures...I've got a lot of blackmail material.


Fisher had fun licking the chocolate off the spatula . I think the sugar had hit his system.

While he did kill Oscar in the last post, this demonstrates Fisher's softer side. Poor, thirsty Grinch. I am noticing a pattern of green and grumpy favorites.

Just popping out to say hi. (Yeah- still trying to work up the motivation for potty training.)


Right before I took this, Fisher was practically asleep on the table while his friend, Noah, was working really hard on his picture. So although Fisher may look like his daddy he has my skills when it comes to school.
