soo g.r.a.t.e.f.u.l

today I had someone clean my house, did my grocery shopping, cook my meals, and watch my kids.

I was spoiled today.

thanks CHRIS! I love you!

and no, I wasn't sick. Just have a great husband who was home today.

Did you know?

that Chris is so political?

I sure didn't. But if you're his friend on facebook I'm sure you have figured that out.

Chris now wants to run for governor. I can just picture it....

I couldn't love Chris more for being so involved, however I told him he can't run for governor :)

check this out if you are passionate, like Chris, about changing our nation.

Happy St. Patty's Day

Who knew it was St. Patricks Day? I sure didn't. I'm not one of those mom's that put out little green feet and make my child's milk green. But I did just happen to put Blake in a green shirt. Pretty lucky since I didn't realize it was St. Patty's day until after I sent Blake to school. What a great mom I am. :)

Moments from church today...

took our usual spot...back row..a little late
realized we didn't do Blake's hair
spilled water on Blake's head so I could do his hair
Score--left over gel from yesterday, Blake's hair looked good
potty breaks
froot loops all over
fights over magnets, cars, books
best talk given by a 12 yr old. (it was so good)
bottle throwing
sacrament meeting over
Sunday school with Chris...first time in 3 years
missed my primary class
first time in young women's and with ty
ty spits up no wipes...
ty bonked his head
ty screaming while laurels are trying to listen to a spiritual lesson
ty tips piano bench over
ty has stinky diaper...only 2 minutes left so I left him marinate
ty throws up again, yummy froot loops
carrying heaviest bags ever and ty
see my sweet blake who gave me a big hug
went home

After today, I realized I need to figure out a better solution to a church bag. What do you do? you have to have diapers, wipes, bottle, formula, snacks, toys for sacrament mtg, church binders, scriptures....so much to carry, oh and a baby. Someone saw me struggling and she said, don't you think we need lockers? I laughed...oh how that would be helpful.

that was church today.

Look who's walking...

Ty has been walking a couple of weeks now. He's so funny to watch. He takes small little steps; he looks like horse sometimes.

It is Time

You know its time to blog when your sister emails you and gives you an idea on what to blog about.

Thanks Heather ;)

OH and my problem isn't having something to blog about, its sitting down and putting my brain to work. :)

So this is our latest project.

Turning this lovely flooring:

into this:

Oh and this is what the floor in the kitchen looked like before (thanks Blake for the picture)

Now my dilemma is finding the right rug for my living room. It seems like I have looked everywhere but just can't find the right one. If anyone has any suggestions of where to look, send them my way!

And I have to say a BIG thank you to everyone that helped us with our project. We couldn't have done it without you! I love my new floor!
