Reading Blogs Isn't a Complete Waste of Time

I made these for a friend.




He's a winnah!

NOT THIS TIME!

Crazy kids decided to have a water day. Another time when "no" meant "yes". Two hours after paying $100 to have my bathrooms cleaned (don't ask), this is the sight that mocked my most recent attempt to civilize our home. *sigh*

p.s. They were charged a $1 entrance fee to Mommy's Water Park ex post facto. They forked over the cash without even batting an eyelash.

Lauren Crochets!

Tonight I taught Lauren how to crochet a chain. She informs me that it is so easy "mom". Well, it wasn't when I tried to teach her two years ago. Hooray for growing up!

It's The Little Things

Liffy gave a talk in primary yesterday. Not only did she say the words OUT LOUD, she read the whole thing herself, too! And it was in her daddy's handwriting. All in all it was quite a feat for my quiet little girl.

Oh Happiness!

Why would I ever want to deprive myself of a single sweet Baby James smile? They are admittedly plentiful; he smiles at the drop of a hat, or the singing of a song, or in this case, the singing of Ten in a Bed when the little one says "roll over, roll over". I think he must relate to it!

Confessions of a first-time blogger

So, I spend hours reading other people's blogs, why not write my own instead? I don't expect I'll let anyone read it, but it's far more engaging than clicking from site to site and reading about everyone else's fun and exciting lives. Maybe if I can edit the details by writing it all down, I'll be able to recognize the great parts of my own life. But why is the baby waking up again?
