What's up?

-Eli won 2 tickets to the Blazers game last night. I was excited because they were playing the Jazz. Secretly, I was rooting for the Jazz, especially since Oden's junk is all over the news right now.

- I have to lose 5 lbs in 3 weeks or else I have to start paying for Weight Watchers and I will lose my title of "Lifetime member". I wish I could have skipped the fat gene in my genetic makeup. And that Mason would nurse like Jake did. She eats for about 2 minutes and she's good for 2 hours.

-Also wish this book I requested from the library months ago wouldn't have suddenly landed in my hands. Who can resist fresh baked bread? I love that there is a sequel "healthy" bread in 5 minutes a day. Guess I'm not the only one who complained.

- I was recently called to teach the Valiant 8 year old's in Primary. There are about 7 kids that come each week. They are so smart. I am loving it. I remember being that age and what a big deal everything was. An adult pointed out to one of the boys in my class that he'd missed a beltloop. The boy turned bright red, asked to be excused and ran out of the primary room. It reminded me of one time I forgot to cross my legs at church and a girl sitting across the room said she could see my underwear. Oh that was the worst day, I was so embarrassed. It is fun to be the adult now.


Enough of my ramblings. Now for the photographic relief and commentary.
-Note the scratches on Jake's cheeks. He got beat up at daycare. Just don't remind him it was by a one year old girl.


-Mason (Whom Jake calls Macy now) found her fingers and has been even happier.

-She still is up every 1-2 hours at night. I tried some rice cereal-- it didn't help. But she looks so cute in the high chair and is loving to be able to sit up.


-The weather has been beautiful. We went for a walk around our Alma Mater. Jacob thought it was such a special occasion he broke out his "old man walk"for the camera.


I'm loving these kids. Even though the laundry and messes doubled-- they're worth it.
