Oh my Bear


This is what I did during church service. After the baptism Brandy went with me to take the older kids to the nursery and children's church. They both cried but seemed okay so we left. We returned and I thought I might actually get to hear a whole sermon! I was wrong. Timothy was hungry but wouldn't eat. I put him up to my shoulder to pat him and try to keep him quiet. I don't know if the people behind me were making faces or he just like them that much but Timbo started talking. If you know him then you know it was about to get loud. I tried as best I could to quietly exit the sanctuary, which is not very quietly when you are carrying a baby in one hand and an open diaper bag in a car seat. Timothy and I sat in the hall way but after a while I got bored and took a walk. As soon as I opened the nursery doors I could hear my Bear crying. I looked in his window and he was having the ugly cry. You know what I am talking about, the one where there is snot pouring and drool coming from the mouth. I went and got him and tried to maneuver in heels over toys with the baby on one hip and Brendon on the other. I do have to say that Bear wasn't crying alone there was a very nice young lady there trying to console him. Anyway once in the hall I got the tears to stop. He asked for a drink and this was how we spent the rest of our time waiting. Gotta love those water fountains.

Oh, this was too funny. As Cameron was walking across the platform Bear turns to me and says, "Mom, that boy walking looks just like Cameron!". Bless his heart we have been talking about going to the baptism for days.

What a blessed day


Sunday the kids and I (Jeff was working ) went to our friends church to see their oldest boy baptized. What a blessed day and we are so thankful to have had the chance to share it with them. I think Jeff said it wonderfully when he said, your child's rebirth is even better than the first one. Amen. Cameron, I am so very proud and happy for you buddy.

Okay y'all since Timbo is our last baby I guess I should get serious about the whole weight loss thing. I mean really for the last five years I have either been pregnant, nursing, or trying to get pregnant so weight loss didn't really matter. I am under the way of thinking that you should eat just about whatever you want and as much as you want while pregnant. My large weight gain this time around was due to cake, cookies, or ice cream everyday and I am not kidding. So I now have a goal weight of 135. Who knows, once I get there I might go a little crazy and try for my weight at graduation but I doubt that will ever happen. So you can just ignore the numbers that will be posted from time to time, those are for me because if I wrote it on a piece of paper it would get lost. I'm a concrete kind of person so I need to see the number continuously go down or I will just quit.

18

What's wrong with my kids?

This morning I caught Kati licking the TV, that's right licking the television. No, there were no yummy commercials about delicious breakfast foods; the show was about the solar system.

Artichoke

Our new thing to try this time was artichoke. Kati said it looked like a dead flower.
It's really kind of pretty, huh?
Here goes the first taste......
and Kati hates it!

I don't care.........

how sleep deprived you are
or how late you are for work
this will still make you smile

Spending time with Paigers

I have to start my post about these shoes. They are so adorable! There is something about taking something for a girl and shrinking it down to an itty bitty size that makes it soooooo cute. On a side note Brendon thought these were Panda Express shoes. Does that say something about me as a mom?
Check out Bears face, he was so proud of himself for sharing.
To cute!
Bear said, "Can you take a picture of me in there?"
Get two girls together and they will definitely do the Barbie thing

Such sweet kisses
I just love this picture
