No Pictures of this Story

Well, for the last few days Eric & I have been anxiously waiting for Taft to make us a dirty diaper along with his wet one. I must say that even though I was at work two days without having to change a poopy diaper was nice, but also very sorrisome (spelling?). Anyways, minutes after setting Taft in his bouncer post feeding we came back to find Taft had not only made a dirty diaper...he had made a dirty onsie and bouncer too. The funny thing was...we were just glad that he had messed all over himself and everything if it just meant that he had gone to the bathroom and nothing was wrong. Needless to say, he was all smiles after that BM. So, we quickly took him to the porch and gave him a dip in his bath out there and brought him in for a little quick bath inside. After a bath, some fresh clothes, spitting up, and a little whining I held him 'til he passed out and the rest is sweet peace!

Is Anyone Interested?

I was wondering if anyone was interested in a girl's night or day of making a few cards? Laurine (one of my mothers in law):) is a stampin up demonstrator. She said that she would put together a little party at my house if anyone was interested. She has been doing this a while and has some great ideas for cards. I am not sure how many of you, if any like cards, but there sure are cute. Anyways, the little stamp camp as we like to call it usually runs $10 and you get to go home with 4 cards, some great food and some time away from home. Just let me know one way or the other for all you bloggers out there and then I could look at some dates that might work for everyone! Don't feel any pressure to do it unless it works well for you. Hope to hear from you guys soon!

Happy Birthday America

I love birthdays, and this particular birthday is a great cause for reflection. I am realizing every day more and more that the things we are grateful for are even more special as I am now a parent. I am especially grateful to have the freedom of religion here in the US now that Taft is here and will need direction from loving family and friends. I am and have always been glad that my parents raised me in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, and that wouldn't have been possible if the brave men and women across the world hadn't and weren't fighting for our freedoms that I know I take for granted way too often. The saddest thing is...I am not sure which b-day this is for our great nation, but if any history buffs know I would love to. Well, here is to many more birthdays America and may we all pause to reflect this day and give a prayer of thanks for the MANY who have served on our behalf!
