Kids Say...

#1...
Last week I was putting A (18 months) down for a nap. I had given her a bottle and we were snuggled up in the rocking chair. I was in a hurry for some reason and as soon as her eyes closed, I put her in her crib, covered her up and turned to leave. As soon as I got to the door and opened it up I hear, "Bu bye!"
Needless to say there was a little more rocking to be done.
#2...
P (3) and I were talking the other day about something. She loves to talk about stuff and then say how silly it is. So we are talking and she says,
" That is so Wack-a-do."
I don't know were she got this but I thought it was so funny coming from her.
#3...
P and W(4) have been sick alot lately. Just when we think they are getting better, they get worse or get something else. So, they have missed several weeks of church. In the mail the other day they got a letter from their SS teacher that had a summary of the things that they had missed. They requested that we read the info to the kids and D asked me to read it to them and discuss. So yesterday after dinner, I pulled it out and sat them down. We talked about their bodies, how God made them and that he made everybody different. We talked about it being good that everybody is different. I asked W if he wanted to look like his sister P or even me. Of course the answer was no.
So I was wrapping it up and saying to W, "Aren't you glad you have brown hair and P has blond hair?" He says, "Yeah, and your hair is kind of a GRAY color."
Ouch, I prefer blond!!

Who Loves You Babies...

I pride myself on being SUPER AUNT.

I love my nieces and nephews more than anything and am so proud of each and every one of them.

So I got this idea a couple of weeks ago to have all my "babies" put on my car. I talked to a friend of mine in my ward, and she made me 17 stick kids for my back window and an "Aunt Mimi" to go with them. I was so excited, I couldn't wait to get them this past Sunday and put them on today.

So here is the before...



and here is the after...

I hope you can see how cute it is. I absolutely love it.

There are 10 girls and 7 boys.

(There is another girl on the way but she isn't included on the window yet, just in case she turns out to be a he.) grin...

That is a total of 17 . They are in birth order with Kayt (almost 17) being first and so on and so forth.

All of my babies are so important to me and I can't imagine life without them.

I am truly blessed!

i LOVE my...

DVR!!!
I really don't think I can LIVE without it. I don't watch TV the same anymore. I DVR everything so I can fast forward through the commercials. I don't know the last time I watched a commercial and I have to say, "WooHoo"!
I never miss my fav shows anymore and I must admit there are several. I love it when there isn't anything on TV to watch too, because then I just go to my list and pick something.
Sometimes, it's the little things in life that make me happy! grin:)
