*I can deal with pain like a broken pelvis and child birth a lot better than I can deal with being sick with a cold or an upset tummy.


I tag anyone who hasn't done this yet. I am kind of late to the game and a lot of people have already done it.

Thankful Thursday

I am thankful for spell check. As some of you know, I am a HORRIBLE speller. I love that I can type something up, hit spell check and I magically appear smarter than I really am. Thanks spell check!

SO PRETTY

Earlier I posted about my vain little one year old, who loves to dress up. Well her wardrobe of beautiful clothes as expanded from a sparkly dress, to jewlery and water socks that are 3 sizes to big. She still thinks she is the most beautiful thing alive and now she tells everyone. Yesterday for the first time she said "pretty." I was holding her up on the counter as I brushed my teeth and she was looking at herself in the mirror and said pretty. I have created a little monster!!! At least she is a pretty one.

FINALLY!!!!

Today is one of the happiest days. I feel like singing and dancing. Claire SLEPT THROUGH THE NIGHT last night. You are probably thinking "she hasn't slept through the night yet, isn't she one?" Ya, that is what I was thinking until last night. I have tried everything with no success to get my very stubborn girl to sleep through the night. But she FINALLY DID IT!!! She slept from 7:45pm to 7:30am. I woke up at 6:30 confused and wondering if the clock was right, and it was. Then I couldn't go back to sleep because I kept waiting for her to wake up, but she didn't!!!! I am so happy, I just had to share.

Thankful Thursday

Today I am thankful for my Bosch. I love that I can make fresh bread for my family with such easy. I can mix 5 big loaves of whole wheat bread in about 15 minutes, not counting the rising and baking part. Bailey loves homemade bread so much that I am hard pressed to get her to eat any other bread. So I am thankful for my Bosch because it allows me to feed my family healthy yummy bread and food. Oh and another plug for Bosch, the blender attachment is AWESOME!!!! Seriously it is the best blender in the world. I am pretty much in love with it.

Cruisin' Along

When Bailey was a baby we got a bike trailer and we just recently we pulled out again. It is so fun to load the girls and go on grand adventures. We travel to exotic places like Grandmas house, the park and the neighbors house. The girls love it (well most of the time, when they aren't picking on each other) and I get some much needed "extracise" as Bailey calls it. But I mostly wanted to post about this because I think this picture of the girls in the trailer is too cute.

Thankful Thursday

Today I am thankful for my primary class. Well if the truth be told I am not too grateful for my class this week (as I look down at the bruises all over my shins from one of the girls) so I decided to write 5 things I am thankful for about them and maybe it will change my attitude.
1. They give the cutest answers to questions. Example: Teacher- "What is something we learn about in the scriptures?" Kid- "How to make our bed and not bite."
2. They get so excited to see me outside of class and give me big hugs.
3. They want to learn so much and try so hard to keep all the scripture stories straight.
4. They have taught me the gospel of the Living Scriptures DVDs.
5. They are 5 and just so darn cute carrying their scriptures that are as big as they are.
Ok, I feel better now and I am ready to prepare my lesson.
