Friday (5/20): I am thankful for the opportunity to celebrate a dear friend’s/cousin’s birthday with her and her family. Saturday (5/21): I am thankful for a day to work on projects with nothing else…

Thankful Thursday (one day late)
Thursday (5/12): I am thankful for personal revelation and for the peace felt in the temple where revelation can be felt more keenly. Friday (5/13): I am thankful for a wonderful few days spent with my family, for kids who can be so great on an eight-hour drive, and for a wonderful husband who takes good care…

Nostalgia
Today I was bouncing between things (I am not a very great multitasker because I am easily distracted!) and decided now was a good a time as any to finally go through Tommy’s clothes and do the “clothes shuffle.” I’m sure many of you know what I am referring to–taking the clothes that are too…

Cute things said by Lucy
I have to document a few things before I forget them. Last week Lucy came home from church and when I asked what she learned in Nursery, she said, “Jesus.” So I asked her what she learned about Him. She then said, “Jesus was at Nursery. But He had to go, so He put on…

Other March happenings
Lucy finally moved to a big bed . . . so Tommy can sleep in the crib. Because of the bed switcheroo, we now have a girls’ room and boys’ room. Tommy is smiling and cooing and being as cute as ever. And growing like mad. At his two month check-up he weighed 11 lbs.…

Tommy’s Blessing Weekend
The weekend of Tommy’s blessing went by like a whirlwind! Or wait. A blizzard. My family drove over from Idaho (an eight-hour drive with no stops) to support us and to see little Tommy. They showed up Friday evening around 7:00. After checking the weather Saturday morning, they realized they better leave Saturday afternoon if…

Cutenesses
I think I will start with some of the cutest things that Lucy has been saying lately. I don’t have any pictures posted of her this time, but I have to document some the funny things she says. She is constantly saying, “Mommy, I’m happy!” And she also says, “Hooray!” when something goes her way.…

Ramblings.
I hardly know where to start. Life in the last month has been a whirlwind of change, happiness and adjusting to the change. Life is good. And truly a couple of really big things have changed in our lives. You all know about the first one, little Tommy joining our family. Definitely lots of change…

How Lucy Really Feels
Lucy has gone through a bit of an adjustment (is going through) since Tommy has been born. That is something we expected. She loves her brother dearly, and there has shown no animosity toward him. She has treated him with so much love from the moment she saw him in the hospital. But she has…
