I hate to be all "seriously, so blessed" but...

Ever had one of those days when the stars are aligned and you literally feel like you are DELIGHTING in your children? You totally get that they are your JOY?

Yep. I've had one of those today. I can't stop kissing and snuggling them. With Abbie gone all day I am so very aware how fleeting these times are and how fast they are growing up.

Abbie lost her top left tooth. Man is her orthadontia going to be expensive.

Here's Amelia's ice cream birthday cake with a plastic dinosaur stuck to the side. She makes me laugh and smile all day long. This picture was taken after a rough nap so I'd like to think she's usually a little more put together than this. Also she LOVES this shirt and I have to hide it from her or else she would wear it every minute.
Max's new trick. He is such a different beast compared to the girls. They did not bite, scream like girls, they were weaned by 1, and they did not climb.

He does. (however I would say he is basically weaned. Yay me.)

Must be something about the 3rd because Avery is refusing to give it up! The less I nurse during the day the more she wants it at night! We were up most of the night the past couple nights. Last night I gave in and nursed her every two hours (that's how she likes it. At least I feel a little more energetic today:) She will be nursing til she's 3 if she gets her way! and let's face it I don't have the energy to fight her:(

P.S. It's OK to be "Seriously, so blessed" because you ARE! Your kids are darling

Why I totally rule: How I rediscovered my chi

(In order to fully appreciate this post, you MUST put on the background music. Just click the play from youtube. This has potential to be a longagong post so you might as well enjoy some tunes. I did most of my training with these gentleman blasting in my ear. Vampire Weekend, I love you.) Here's the story with the gory details. Why do you tri? On October 18, 2004 I delivered a 16 week old boy in the same room of the American Fork hospital that I lost one six months earlier. (I get pregnant really easily.) The previous week I had seen the doctor and everything was looking good and right on track so yay for me. While the first one was devastating (a whole other post for a whole other day), it was number 2 that changed me. I was so angry at my body for betraying me and not letting me do what I wanted it to do. I figured I was doing all the "right things" with the taking care of myself so therefore, I would be able to carry the babies to term and everyone would live happily ...

I'll go where you want me to go dear Lord, but Primary?!

Brad took the picture of me teaching GD a year ago. I was not pleased. No pictures. Brad took this picture of Max while I was teaching GD a month ago. I was pleased. Pictures of Max are fine by me. Some important thoughts on my new calling: In the 21 years since I have been in Primary as a merrie miss (apparently they are not called that anymore), I have subbed a handfull of times. It was not a success. One time, while subbing for Brad I went into the class and the boys had escaped out the window. All I saw were a set of feet as the kid was leaping out. Another time, while subbing for Brad I used the tie some kid was using and irritating everyone around him with and TIED HIM TO THE CHAIR. Another time, while subbing, the kid sliced his finger on the chair (not the same kid and he was not trying to escape my tying him up.) and ended up in the ER. (and it so happens that his mom is my 2nd counselor. I think that's funny.) I really really really loved teaching Gospel Doctrine. I hope ...

I am not sure if he is showing off his new tie he got for Christmas? He is a handsome little guy!
