Last Saturday we had an exciting day! My cousin Cira was in town with her husband, Charlie & their cute little girl, Amanda. (She is a month older than Blaze.) They has fun giving each other "fives".

MY MOTHER"S DAY
I am so grateful for Mother's Day, especially this year. My wonderful husband made me feel very appreciated and loved! (Not that he doesn't make me feel that way often!) He made me a fantastic breakfast this morning while I slept in a bit. Then he gave me my present...which I always get nervous about, because he has gotten REALLY good at buying presents. Probably too good on a student budget!
He surprised me with the Cricut! I am so lucky! Please don't take this as bragging...that is the least of my intent. He almost bought me one for my birthday last year...but I talked him out of it (I have been kicking myself ever since!!!). I am so excited to start projects...I already have a few in mind!
Here is our sweet little family on our way into church. We even coordinate...not planned! I was lucky to speak about mothers today in Sacrament meeting. The Spirit was wonderful! Since I was called to the primary I have missed the spiritual nourishment I received in Relief Society (we have a couple phenomenal teachers!), and today the men took over & we got to go to class. What a blessing...I really needed that boost!
We watched our nephew for a couple hours tonight as well & when Phil & Lindsey got back they were having fun with the babies. It got late so we loaned Bishop (their baby) some pj's. Considering he was now a superhero we had to see him FLY! Blaze, freshly out of the tub, wasn't about to be left out!
I hope everyone had as wonderful a weekend as we did...Again Happy Mother's Day!

FRIDAY/SATURDAY
Blaze has learned that the exercise ball makes a great seat! What you can't see is that the ball is sitting up on top of the highchair. He saw it up there & started squawking to get up there. Adam perched him on it & he loved it!
Bennett passed the time (while waiting to go camping with daddy) playing with Afton in the park. The tree is a favorite perch.
Father & Sons campout. Bennett was soooo excitesd to go camping with his daddy! He had a blast!

Summer is almost here!
Blaze has discovered the joy of a good popsicle! This is the first one that I have given him & no problem...he figured it out & ate the entire thing. Not much of a mess, either!

TAGGED AGAIN!
Okay...so I am really bad at doing these. Right now I should be sleeping or working on my talk for Sunday...but instead I am blogging! Thank you Ashley for tagging me.
Now here are the rules: each player lists 6 facts/habits about themselves. At the end of the post, the player tags 6 people, posts their names and then goes to the 6 blogs and leaves them a comment letting them know that they've been tagged and invites them to read your blog. (Got that? I think that is the longest sentence ever!).
1.) I have a love/hate relationship with blogging! I really love to do it, but I get so lost & wrapped up in it when I do that I end up staying up way too late! I usually only am able to blog at night because Adam takes the computer to school!
2.) I eat certain things (like candy, crackers, cookies...things of smaller nature) in even numbers , and equally on each side of my mouth. I don't really know why I do it, I just do & have been doing such for as long as I can remember. What, you say, do I do when there is only one left? I either make my husband eat it or if I am alone I bite it in half...one part for each side of my mouth. OKAY...so I'm weird!
3.) I am cloth diapering! I love it & really couldn't tell you why I am doing it. I don't really have a good reason. It intrigued me for a long time...so I did it!
4.) I kind of find enjoyment in being a bit different. I have my babies with a midwife, I wear them in a sling (the only one of my friends that really does so...except for Ipuna, she has joined the dark side!), I I breastfeed past a year. I love it though!!!!! It kind of makes my life more fun that way. Is that kind of sad?
5.) I love cleaning the bathroom...no I will not come & clean yours! If someone comes to my house & it isn't perfect...okay, I have two kids & we keep busy. But if they ask to use the bathroom I am mortified if it is not tidy. It is small, but very satisfying to clean!
6.) I miss dancing. I danced for a number of years & right now it sadly doesn't make it too high on my priority list. It isn't cheap! On the humorous note...I went & took a hip hop class this week while adam was home, and boy was I out of my league! I am talking music video! Granted when I do get to go to a class, I go to a studio for professional adults. I also haven't done hip hop for about ten years! OH MY...did it kick my trash!!!! I was sore for days! For the future I will be sticking to jazz...thank you very much!
Now I hate to assign people to do these things...so if you even so much as cracked a smile while reading this, do one yourself. THEY ARE FUN TO WRITE & EVEN MORE FUN TO READ!
