Earlier I has shared a link to a story about a family in need of our prayers, to read the post go here. Well Dear Victory has returned to His Father in Heaven. The experience has been a faith building time for so many and a good reminder as Victory's mother said to, “Hug your children for me and know that family really is what matters most.” Her quote was taken from here. I know that Families ARE Forever, and that we can be together as families for all eternity through the amazing sealing powers that come through ordinances in the Temple. As I was contemplating last night of what I had happened to this dear family I thought, "The Plan of Happiness really is a plan of happiness. What could be more happy than having your family and the ones you love with you for all ETERNITY!" It brings such peace and joy into my heart and soul to know this is true and to belong to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. I am also grateful for the knowledge that Jesus Christ mourned with those that mourned. He knows what we are going through and it is okay to mourn loss. I feel such comfort to know that my Savior knows me, he knows my joys and heartaches and is there with me when I need him. I can choose to live in a way that will always allow me to have the companionship of the Spirit, to help led me and guide me. This life is not an easy one but through trials we can become stronger more vigilant sons and daughters of our Heavenly Father who loves us. He can and will provide strength to us to overcome ALL things just as His Son, our Savior, Jesus Christ overcame all things for US. This day and everyday I echo this sweet mothers words; Hug your children, and loved ones and know that what matters most is family. I do not think we can be reminded of that too often. May God Bless You All Today and Always!

Owie!
Warren was playing at his sitters house and pulled his diaper bag off the couch and one of the rings on it scratched his head on Friday the 4th of November. This is his first "owie" but knowing how much I got hurt as a kid and how much Zack did as well, I am sure it won't be his last. He is still so cute, even with his first owie. I just love his big blue eyes and smile!
Warren loves cuddling with Daddy. He is 6 1/2 months old here.
First Snow!
We woke up to snow this morning, Saturday, November 5th, 2011. Warren's first snow storm. We decided to take him out and let him experience the snow first hand. He really seemed to like it and probably would have stayed out longer had we let him.
All bundled up and ready to go out.
I think that Warren really liked the snow and if this is any indication of his future, he will probably love the snow just like his Daddy.Disneyland Treats
Grandma and Grandpa Ludlow went to Disneyland with Elizabeth , Aunt Amy and Uncle Mike and their kids over UEA and brought Warren back a treat. It was a huge hit. He even liked it with the wrapper on, but Mom and Dad gave in and let Warren chew on the lollipop until he dropped it and then we took it away, which led to a very unhappy little boy.
We took his lollipop away to unwrap it and he was one unhappy little boy.
I love his little face in this picture, it almost says, "Just leave me alone with my lollipop and no one will get hurt."
Carrots!
Warren tried carrots and baby food for the first time on October 24th, 2011. He did such a good job and ate the entire jar, then went after the spoon.
Do I have something on my face?
Mmmmm Carrots.
Just Because!

I just love this onsie. He wore it to church a few weeks ago. His first "white shirt and tie"
Loving his Johnny Jumper
After his first Halloween party. So happy!
Warren is getting so big. He is just over 6 months here.
Zack thinks Warren kind of looks like Mr. Magoo here. I just think he is adorable.

Trick or Treating
Great-Grandma and Grandpa Wiberg invited us to go trick or treating at their new apartment complex and we had so much fun! Aunt Amy and Uncle Mike and their kid came as well as Aunt Jenelle and her girls, who flew in from Chicago for a visit. We all had a great time walking around the three floors and finding which houses had the pumpkins on their doors so we could trick or treat. This was Warren's first time trick or treating, and he even got some candy for Mom and Dad to enjoy. Luck for us it was just a few pieces. We had a great time and are so glad that Great-Grandma and Grandpa Wiberg invited us. It was warm and a great first trick or treating experience for Warren.(The picture above is everyone who dressed up to go trick or treating.)
Ward Trunk or Treat
We had our ward's Trunk or Treat and annual Halloween party a few weeks ago and had so much fun dressing up as characters from Harry Potter. Zack had mentioned that he thought it would be fun to have Warren be baby Harry Potter, Zack be Hagrid and I would dress up as someone from the book. So we did. All the little kids at the party kept coming up and saying, "It's baby Harry Potter!" We really had a good time and loved seeing all the costumes. Warren hanging out with Grandma and Grandpa handing out candy.
Except his airhead which he still has, and would not let go of.
Aunt Jessie and Uncle Mat's Hallloween Party!
Mat and Jessi threw a Halloween party this year, and we had so much fun! We had soup and all sorts of Halloween treats then carved pumpkins and just hung out. Thanks guys for a fun night. (The picture above is Mat with his 60 pound pumpkin they grew in their garden.)
