Yay for nursery!


Today was the first offical day litle K got to go to nursery! It was nice because Brian had to teach Elders and I had baby A! She was so good, she didn't even cry when I left the nursery room! She's such a big girl!

In with the new and out with the old...

I've decided that litle K needs a new bed time routine, one that does not involve watching Little Einsteins and mom holding her until she falls asleep. So tonight began the new one. Brian and I decided that the tv would be turned off at 7 if not earlier and we would listen to classical music for the rest of the evening. So we did this. Tonight was easy becuase some of our friends came to visit us. When they left Brian went to bed and so I'm doing the new routine by myself. After I fed baby A and got her to sleep I turned on a cd of nursery rhymes and little K and I danced to them when that was over we read a few books and the listned to some childrens songs. I got this compilation of childrens songs when K was born and we haven't really listened to it much, it's a great cd they are made for bedtime. Anyway then I put her in her crib. Now is the hard part, because she is not used to this I have to let her cry herself to sleep. It's so hard to just sit and listen to her cry when I know that it would be much easier to hold her. I really hope this new routine works and she will learn to go to sleep with out crying. I'm looking at getting a little cd player for her room so I can stick the cd on and have that help her settle and put her to sleep! I just hope this works. It's going to be a long process but if all works at it will be very well worth it! Wish me luck!

Hugs and Sleeping

Last weekend Brian and I were invited to a birhday party for Gabriel and Brittany's neighbor Tony. As always the party was a blast! While there litle K found a friend who wanted to give her lots of hugs, it was hilarious to watch. The other litle girl almost pushed her down several times trying to hug her. They were so cute that I had to take some pictures of them hugging.


Litle K saying no to hugs! I just love how she says no!


The other day I was watching something on tv while litle K was playing after awhile it got super quiet and I wasn't sure where K was. I figured she was playing under the kitchen table becuase she had been doing that most of the day. When I went to get up and check on her I found her asleep on the floor. Very rarely does she fall asleep without someone holding her. (A bad habit we are trying to brake) I thought it was so cute and had to take pictures of her asleep all curled up on the floor.

I love taking pictures of the girls and just can't pass up cute photos like this one! I love that baby A is holding the blanket as she is sleeping! She is so much fun! This morning she gave me such big smiles for like 5 minutes. It was fun to just sit and talk to her and make her smile without anyone bugging us.

I'm very blessed to have 2 wonderful girls who brighten my day with the little things!

A new calling

Brian recieved a new calling this week, it came as a complete shock. Earlier this week he gat a phone call from our high councilman and asked if Brian could meet with him during the 2nd hour of church. He didn't say anything else so it left Brian and I wondering. We both figured it was a calling we just didn't know what it would be. Well today when Brian and I met with him I was super shocked at the calling he received. He has been called to serve as a councelor in the Elders Quoram. Life has been crazy busy as it is so to have Brian be in this calling I know it's from the lord. I'm way excited for him to have this calling it will be such a blessing to all of us. Brian was sustained at set apart today so he is offically in the presidency. I love this gospel and know that we are truly blessed to be apart of such a wonderful organization!
