Chats: It was fun today to talk to some people that I haven't talked to in a while. I think my cell is getting old because after one conversation I had to charge the battery again. It was well worth it though! Fun to talk to amazing women in my life!
Weather: it's been wild and windy, but I love the temperature out.
Stairs: I have a love/hate relationship with my stairs tonight. I fell down them with the kid in my arms. Silly kid yinned when he should have yanged... oh well... at least I have 2 knees!

Making it through church: the little man has had a rough couple of weeks when it comes to handling church, but today, like a trooper, he made it!
Cakes: I like baking, too bad my house was clean yesterday... it isn't anymore.
Birthday parties: we went up the canyon to Southfork Park. It was a lot of fun! We ate well, gave presents to each member who had a birthday in August, and then played around. The kid is weird, but I think he did a fairly good job for being as tired as he was. Yay for family!

Cleaning: you know how sometimes you just get the cleaning bug? Yup, it bit me today. I even got on my hands and knees and scrubbed my kitchen floor. I KNOW! WILD!
Sugar snap peas: I sure do love those sweet little buggers. The best part? Today I found out that the kid loves them too! Yay!
Glasses: I picked up my glasses today. So nice!

Puppies: I was thinking about puppies today. Not that we're going to be getting one, but their sooo cute! And when they grow into those wonderful loving dogs that sit next to you and grow old with you... I just love dogs.
Good news: I love getting good news from people, especially since when you get good news from somebody else it makes you think your life is good too. Isn't that weird? I like that factor, it's almost as if good news is contagious.
Sleep: I sure do love sleep. It makes me happy just thinking about it.

Cheesesteaks: they're yummy.
Banks: I had to run to the bank today and go inside. The lady gave Bug a sucker. His first bank sucker ever. I have to admit it was funny to watch him try and figure it out. Turns out suckers have the appearance of non-messiness, but looks can be deceiving!
Couches: I love how comfy my couch is. I love that when I need to just lay down I can plop on my couch and it feels like a hug. Yes... I love my couches.

Phineus and Ferb: yes, I do realize that I'm blogging about a kid show, but when I've got 2 babies in the house I try to keep the "noise" in the house as clean as I can. I actually laughed today... crap, I guess that means my mind is digressing!
Medical advancements: I was thinking today about the fact that if I had been born 60 years ago I would probably be dead by now because of my past choriocarcinoma... Sadly, now that I really think about it I wouldn't have made it through infancy because of my heart... but anyway I'm just grateful to live in a day and age that has the medical information to help save lives. (No commentary on the actual systems, just the information!)
Spaghetti: my husband knows me well, and when he knows that I've had a rough day he makes me homemade spaghetti. He must love me or somthing.

Mom's: I'm grateful for my mom today. She called up knowing that I spend my money on anything but me and told me we were going to go shopping. I came home with a few new shirts that have been greatly needed. I know it sounds silly, but it meant a lot to me.
Loves: it's hilarious how when my mom picks up the kid he instantaneously gives her loves. Just puts his head down on her shoulder and cuddles up. So cute!
Mockingjay: I downloaded the book to kindle this morning at 12am... okay so it was auto delivered... but still! I'm already half-way through.

Playing: I think it's funny that when I chase him around our couch my son will start scream laughing. It's hilarious. I try to do it as often as I can.
Yogurt: I have now passed my obsession with yogurt on to my son. He sees the little containers and points with a uuuhh? I think he could eat one for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
Wind: a wind storm knocked down a section of our fence. Now I can see nicely into our neighbor's back yard. YAY!

Squishes: We went over to meet little Max today. He is such a little sweetie! SO tiny, so precious! I could have just taken him home with me. I doubt I would have gotten far!
Chaos: today at church was a mad house! I think the kids all have the nervous wiggles from getting ready for school to start again. I'm going to be so glad when they are used to sitting in seats all day... church wont be as hard on them then.
Potatoes: we found some VERY old potatoes today. Lets just say... we need to clean out our pantry more... yuck!

Laura May: my sister had a birthday today. I love my sisters. They are such great examples to me. Laura has more compassion than anyone I know. She is loyal to a tee, and has the best laugh of anyone I know. Love you Laura!
Birthday shopping: It was a good day in the fact that I had a lot of errands to run and we were able to accomplish a lot of them. We got all the birthday shopping for the month of August done... which says a lot... lots of birthdays this month!
Funny comments: So Birch came over tonight with her husband D. D came in the house laughing because he was asking Birch if we knew they were coming over... I guess Birch answered with, "I'm always welcome here."

Half days of work: G's company went to Lagoon today so all the employees got a half day of work. We didn't end up going, but it sure was nice to have G around the house.
Making a plan: after a month of having my house turned upside down, we made a plan today of when we're going to get the painting done in a reasonable amount of time. YAY!

Alligators: I was watching the history channel today and saw a preview for a show called swamp people. Really?!? It reminded me of when an old friend of mine called one of his ex-girlfriends alligator girl... Who wrestles alligators? Seems a little on the crazy side to me.
Kix: kid tested, mother approved! My kid likes to shovel them in his mouth until he can't fit any more. With his little mouth it is quite the feat.
Flashlights: the kid has started playing with flashlights, turning them on and off... it's funny and cute and a little nerve wracking all at once.

Naps: naps are for the good of both the adult and the child. When no naps happen no good can come for the adult or the child.
Gravity: I really like that song. It's a little morbid, but I still love it.
Yogurt: I stopped eating yogurt a while back, mainly because I ate so much I kinda got burned out on it. Now after a significant break I'm happy to say that I'm back to giving yogurt my love.

All the ducks are in a row: I had to scramble today and make a bunch of appointments but now that I'm done being on the phone it is nice to have everything be on a schedule.
My mom: today at lunch she asked the waiter if they had to kill the cow. It really was taking forever to get our food, but it was hilarious to have my mom ask.

Mondays: I used to hate Mondays because I had to go back to work. Now I just dislike them because G has to go back to work. :) At least they've been downgraded.
Shocks: I think everyone should have a good shock from time to time. I think that it helps you be thankful for the boring times of life.
Praying for others: one of the best gifts HF gives his children is the ability to pray. I'm grateful that I can extend my faith to others in their times of need.

David and Bethsheba: so one of the moms posted this on her facebook link after class was over today:
"H what did you learn in church today? "Umm...well there was a lady taking a bath on her roof and some guy was watching, and the next day he came and took her to his castle and married her, and then she got sent off to the worst war ever." So H what was the point of the lesson? "Ummm Not to sun bath on your roof"
... ya... so that's how my lesson went... I swear I taught the lesson as best I could... but I guess that 10 year old's hear what they filter.
Home teachers: I really really really love our home teachers. Just sayin...
Pancakes: we had sourdoughs today and the Russians came! I love having Katya & Jason come, but today Sveta and Vlad came too and it was a lot of fun. Such good memories!

Get 'er done! After 2 days of feeling yucky, today it was awesome to feel great and to be able to get some of the things on my list checked off! Yay! Smaller lists!
Prep time: so tomorrow I have to give the lesson on David and Bethsheba. Not looking forward to that at all... 10 year olds... and adult content... yay... *sigh...

Residual effects: so today G had the yucks. Must be a bug of some sort. So we just laid low. It was a nice relaxing night without much happening in the day.
Reading: My sister gave me some books to read. The Mortal Instruments series. It's actually been a really fun read, and since I haven't felt up to snuff, it was good to have a nice book to loose myself in.
Funny commercials: so... seeing a "larger" man in a wet suit can be hilarious... who knew?

The yucks: I think I must have ate something yesterday cause today is a NO GO! I'm saddened because yesterday was such a good day and today all I want to do is lay on the floor.
Laying on the floor: did you know that when you lay on the floor a 14 month old automatically thinks of you as his very own personal toy? We've had many fun games today on the floor. It cracks me up.
Missing friends: because of the above reasons we had to miss our monthly get together with friends. I always feel blessed they are in my life, even if I don't get to see them.

36 years: 36 years ago my husband was born. He's had a lot of guardian angels protect him to get to this point... lets hope for 36 more years of protection!
Squished: whenever little E comes over and the two little ones start playing together, I've noticed that they are either on opposite sides of the room... or squished together... It's actually kinda funny.
Cuddle time: since it was his birthday, G took the night off from homework and we had a good night together. It was very nice, and very relaxing.

Grocery shopping: I went and picked up some things so that I can make chicken enchiladas. Fun side note, it was the first thing I ever made G when we were dating. He said he liked them more than his mom's (I'm sure he just wanted to make me happy) and so since they are his favorite, that is what he wanted for his birthday.
Homework: pretty much every night G has to sequester himself up in the office to do homework. I'm always thankful when he pushes it off a little bit so that he can spend time with our little family.

Laundry: so... the ox was in the mire!
Being there: I'm so grateful for when others are there for me. It makes it nice to be able to reciprocate when someone else needs me.

Pancakes: It was good to have a big family breakfast eating sourdough pancakes. It reminded me of my childhood and having them on a weekly basis. Such a good tradition that I'm hoping to pass on to my kids... especially since he ate 2 on his own.
Paddle boats: We got into a paddle boat and the kid instantaneously fell asleep. We also watched as the rest of our family went around the lake having fun with each other.
Cousins: I love how much the cousins all loved playing with my kid. He had so much fun going from kid to kid, laughing, screaming, being tickled and loved. I'm so grateful for such great kids in my life. I love them!

Ziplines: Okay... expect the unexpected here... I, scaredy-cat crybaby of the universe, climbed up a cargo net, walked across a rope walkway and went down a zipline tonight! Sure, it tooke me 25 minutes to my husband's 3... but still! I impressed myself!!!
Snacks: my family rocks in the food department. It's fun to never be hungry!

Piggies: you could think I'm going to talk about playing piggies with the kid... I'm not! We got some yummy pig we're going to make into wonderful yumminess! Umm Umm Yumm!

Standing up: Little E is standing and trying to walk. It is hilarious because today she grabbed hold of the little man and he grabbed her arms... then proceeded to make Little E walk backwards... until they crashed. Hilarious!
Finger foods: the kid has decided to revolt against anything on a spoon. Thank heavens for finger foods!

Stress: I think that sometimes it's a good thing to be under high amounts of stress. For starters it reminds us of how good we normally have it, secondly, adrenaline is the mother of invention (forget about necessity!), and finally after solving a problem nothing feels better than letting go of the stress!
Freelance: I'm done for the time being... whew!
Support: I called G today in a total panic (see stress above) and he was able to calm me down, and help me find a solution as quickly as he could. I have my own personal computer handyman!

Testimony meeting: I love our little ward. We might be few in numbers but we're huge in spirit!
Afternoon naps: after playing so hard, our little family had a good nap... well I laid down and pretended... but it was still good down time!

Dating: it was so amazing to feel like G and I were dating again. It was fun to just be goofy and laugh at things. I am reminded over and over again why I fell in love with this man.
Babies: we went home tonight and picked up the little man. He didn't really want to come home. I think that it is a tribute to my sister and her kids.

Babies: we went home tonight and picked up the little man. He didn't really want to come home. I think that it is a tribute to my sister and her kids.

Sisters: my wonderful and amazing sister took the day off of work so that she could take my kid for the weekend! It was so amazing to me! It meant so much to be able to have that time with my husband without a kid around. Thank you thank you!!! You rock!
Movies: G and I were able to goof off all day today. It was so much fun! We went out to breakfast, went to a movie, ate some more... pretty much the perfect day for me.
Sundance: to end the night G took me to Sundance to their outdoor theater. I huffed and puffed getting up the hill... apparently I need to do more Zumba... but once we were there it was amazing to be on a hill, sitting on a blanket, snuggled up to G. Good times!

Memories: 5 years ago I got married. I'm so grateful to have such an amazing person in my life. Grateful that he loves me and grateful for the many ways he shows his love. I couldn't have asked for a better match to me. I love that man!!!
Family time: G took the rest of the week off, so today we spent time as our little family. It was so much fun to be together and I'm grateful for the down time.
Dates: since the little man was feeling better my in-laws took him so that G and I could go out to dinner. It was nice to go and get something fun to eat. Even if it took us forever to decide what we wanted.

Sickos: the kid is sick today. I feel so sorry for him. His poor little bum...
Joints: have you ever noticed that when you're on the floor, your joints pop as you get up... yes, that is the sound of me getting older... you just have to laugh about it!
Laughter: I have always found it to be the best medicine. I'm grateful for a sense of humor when cleaning up isn't so fun.

Loves: whenever the kid is wanting to cuddle or to be held I will say the word "loves" to him. He will promptly sit on my lap and cuddle up. Today we gave a lot of "loves."
Wipes: as I found out that the kid was giving loves because he wasn't feeling so good, I was also reminded quickly of why I love wipes so much. They are handy to have for many a messy situation.
Computers: I am so grateful to have my handy dandy laptop. It is so useful and if I need to be mobile while I work I can. Yay for the invention! (and Yay that they don't cost an arm and a leg anymore!)
