Pepper gets on her hands and knees to rock back and forward until she decides she wants to go somewhere. Then she goes back onto her stomach and looks like she is swimming. She hasn't quite figured crawling out yet. Her newest thing is lifting her stomach off the floor by balancing on her hands on feet. Robert calls them her whale push-ups.
Saturday night we picked out some pumpkins. We cleaned one out, carved some leg holes and put Pepper in it. She looked pretty cute. But the pictures are not up-loading normal and I am computer illiterate for the most part so I will have to wait until Robert gets home to put them on. So all there is for now is this picture of Pepper sporting her ghostly "BOO" shirt.
My Grandma Paxman made Pepper this pink patchwork quilt. It completed her outfit on Sunday. I am always putting Pepper on her blanket (on the floor) during Relief Society because for the most part she stays quiet and entertains herself. Although Robert takes her to Priesthood everyother week, so I only get her half the time. 
We have carried on the Bruce & Lori Salmon family tradition of... eating doughnuts saturday after conference while the men tell us about priesthood session. I was getting the hot chocolate ready etc. and when I turned around to see Pepper with 2 doughnuts. Since her high chair tray was not on she was able to reach farther and pull the doughnut box close enough to grab a couple. Unfortunatly her mother didn't let her eat them both.
This is not your typical scene. Korver and Pepper cooperating together. It was so cute they were both playing notes... our little musicians! 
We are now back in Utah where Robert is attending BYU. We miss both sets of grandparents and all the family we had in Washington.... but in some ways it is slightly nice to be back. We love to hang out with the Kinghorns, Curtis' and Spencer. Here is Pepper in the swing in the backyard of our duplex.
When grandma took Pepper it was never to do normal things like playing patty-cake. Grandma was always there to help Pepper experience new adventures. Like drinking out of the hose, wading in the fountain or rolling pool balls. She loved being around her Grandma Paxman because life was never boring. 
Well first a shout out to Chad and Autumn who were married nearly 6 weeks ago. I have yet to recieve any of thier wedding photos so I am posting a picture of them at best wok, instead. We went out to lunch with them when they returned from thier honeymoon in Victoria. After lunch the waiter brought us a plate of oranges. We all loved them, even Pepper.
