Phil and I went to Miami for an AXA Conference. The kids stayed home with my parents. It was so nice to get away for a few days. We stayed at the Fontaine Bleau Resort. We enjoyed the pool, the ocean, and the food! We also went on an intracoastal dinner yacht tour while there. We saw lots of celebrity homes and had a great time.
I was called to be the Relief Society President for our branch at church. I am scared to death to take on this much responsibility for the sisters that I will serve. I was given a huge stack of paperwork to go through and this is what I narrowed it down to. I still have a lot to read and a lot to learn! I knew for some time that this calling was coming. The Lord gives us what we need and I needed time to prepare! I pray that with His help I will be able to serve in the way He would want me to.
Brennen came into my bathroom while I was getting ready this morning. He had his hand outstretched and yellow goo was oozing down his fingers. He said, “Mom, eggs messy.”
Most days I can’t find a sippy cup to save my life. The problem today was that I almost broke my neck when I tripped on all three of them at once!
We celebrate Ella and Brennen’s birthdays together. They were testing out the party favors before the party got started!
Have you ever washed a diaper or a pullup? This is what you end up with…
Little gel blobs all over your clothes and the washer!
It’s great.
Growing up, my Mom and her mom Grandma Nicholas made us a “pig in a poke” for breakfast. I loved them and my kids do too even though I am not very good at making them. Luckily their Grandma Debbie makes them for them.
Ella lost another tooth today. She has a special little pillow she puts her teeth in when leaving them for the tooth fairy. She couldn’t find it so she had to find a substitute. When Phil tucked her in he saw Mr. Potato Head’s hand holding her tooth for her!
Ella had a snow day today so we spent the morning doing “science experiments.” We mixed baking soda, vinegar, and food coloring. The kids loved it!
Brennen wanted to go outside and play in the snow. I didn’t think he would like the cold but he loved it! He had a great time throwing snowballs at Phil.
