Sunday Post

I can't believe it has been a week since I last posted, guess nothing much new going on or too excited to tell about.
Anyways- Big H was asked to give a talk in Primary at church. He did an awesome job, Brandon and I were so proud of him! Here is his talk and all its simplicity- (of course I got to help write it!)

I have a family here on earth, there are so good to me
I want to share my life with them through all eternity
Families can be together forever, through Heavenly Father's plan
I always want to be with my own family
And the Lord will show me how I can.

I am so grateful for my family and all that they teach me.
I am glad to be a big brother and hope that I can set a good example for Miss P and Baby G.

Hope you Sunday was as good as ours! We did lose our power and tried to go to bed early with the tykes since they were a little frightened. It was very touching to see the brotherly/sisterly love between the tykes. They were all giving kisses and hugs to each other hoping that the other would be ok and sleep well.
I so love my family and hope they always know that!

PS we did get our power back sometime in the night, I was a hair busy with the baby, he is SICK- croup and some bronchitis! Not much fun!

Sunday Post

Brandon and I had the opportunity to speak at church. It's such a stress until after it's all over with, then you can breathe some. We both were speaking about what we learn from kids/teenagers.
It took me a while to figure out what to say, cause what DON'T we learn from our kids!!! I realized how much I need to be teaching them myself about the gospel, and to start that better, we decided to hold our Family Home Evening Nights on Sunday, since it is a family day. It turned out great!
Don't you just love it when you are asked to do something and find something out for yourself in return!
BTW- Brandon totally rocked his talk too!
The tykes did great, Baby G had his moments, but we all survived in the end!

Bed-Head Valentines!

Hope everyone had a great Valentine's Day! I sent the tykes on a little treasure hunt around the house for the Valentine prizes! It was a hit and they had a great day full of love!

Coraline Movie- DO NOT SEE!

My tykes were so excited to see this movie, as were we thinking it would be great! It was created by Tim Burton who did The Nightmare Before Christmas. Coraline was in 3-D as well. It's rated PG, and should of been PG-13, if that! It had stuff that was way over the tykes head and was very scary, also with things in it that they could of done without. So I urge you all not to waste your time or money on this movie. Miss P can't quit talking about it- how scary it was and trying to wrap her head around it. Like her Grandma Carla told her, you won't ever make sense of it, try to say a prayer to forget the movie or sing a song. So true. Both my husband and I just couldn't believe this movie. Please don't ask why we didn't all just get up and walk out of there, I wish we would!

Dr. Seuss Says..

Hands, Hands,
Fingers, Thumb,
Dumb, Ditty, Dumb, Ditty,
Dumb, Dumb, Dumb!
This babe can not get enough of his toes or his thumb! I had to get pictures to document this too! My loves to you Baby G, thanks for making me smile!

Twins!

Don't ya think? I soooo heart Baby G's face in this picture too.
Big H loves his baby brother so much. Both the tykes look forward to Baby G each morning and giving him loves!
Just had to throw this one in too! This is where you can find my tykes in the winter months, hanging out on the heaters! Miss P likes the whole heater to herself while watching TV. Do your tykes do this too?

6 Months Looks Good On You!!!

This is what the Pediatrician said when she walked into the exam room.
Baby G's stats are 14 pounds 10 ounces and 25 inches long.
Healthy and Happy as a Lark! All cleared to start baby food!
He had sweet potatoes last night and eat them without a fight! Go Baby G! We love watching you learn and grow, but let's keep this growing thing on a s-l-o-w scale, ok! I love you and your cuddles, squirmies, noises, talking, and slobbers you do!

Bachelor Update

Ok, all you Bachelor fans- aren't you just loving this season? I love all the twists and turns going on and most of all I love that it hasn't been too "catty." It seems that the girls are more real this time and maybe more mature than most.
Stephanie was let go, she really did have a sweet spirit, but I too didn't think she was THE ONE. She was a little older and she had an older look to her. But what a great way to leave Jason without screaming, swearing, and freaking out.
So, here's to a new week and hopefully for Jason to find his true love!
Didn't you just love where he lived too, what a fun place!

Sunday Post- Our Church Bishop

We have such a great Bishop (the man in charge of our congregation) at our church. I was needing to talk with him on Sunday for a few minutes and it was just great to know that he had the time for me.
It is also comforting to know that I feel comfortable talking to him about different things. He is easy to talk to and makes you feel welcome, so I would just like to give a SHOUT-OUT to my great Bishop! You are doing a great job! Thanks for all you do for me and my family and for being so understanding!
