Speaking in Church and the Kids New Toy

Today I spoke in church about obedience. Usually I get so nervous and can't speak without tears. Well today I turned over a new leaf. I just read my talk and I got through it without being nervous. It was probably only a few minutes, the shorter the better. Right. Cameron gave me a blessing of comfort and i think that helped tremendously. Now the people in our new ward wont think of me as a crybaby when ever I talk in church. Watch they will call me to be a relief society teacher where I would have to talk all the time. That would be horrible.


Cameron recently got his first paycheck and we thought we would buy the kids a swingset to play on. It took Cameron two days to put it together. Too bad it won't hold me and cam if we want to swing. Hopefully Bailee, Braden and Malia will have many happy times on thier new toy.

Malia is Two Months Old!

Malia went to the doctor yesterday for her 2 month well child checkup. Where she received three shots. There was a newly graduated nurse who gave malia her shots. You could tell she hasn't had much experience because she did one vaccine one at a time and put the band aid on after each shot. I'm used to the nurses doing two at a time and then putting the band aids on after they were all done. Poor Malia was just hysterical. Luckily for me, Cameron was there to help out. Mommy has a hard time holding kids down and watching them scream bloody murder. We thought Malia would weigh in around 10 pounds. Boy were we wrong, she weighed in at 12 pounds. I thought wow you are fat. So today I looked at what the other kids weighed at 2 months and was surprised. Braden was 14 pounds and Bailee was 12lbs 2 oz. So I guess she isn' t that fat. .

Mount Malia Erupted

I'm so proud of Malia, she slept through the night!! She slept from 10:00 to 5:00. When she woke up at 5:00 she was eating like there was no tomorrow, just gulping away. She went back to sleep so I thought I would burp her before laying her back in her crib. Thats when she erupted!! Throwup went everywhere, all over me, her, the carpet ,and the chair. So of course I had to clean it up and change Malia's clothes. By this time she was wide awake and wanting to eat again since her stomach was on empty. I was a little hesitant to feed her again.
She ate for like two minutes and was back to dreamland. I hope Malia will continue to sleep through the night. Wish us luck.
Later today she goes to the doctor for her two month checkup and shots. I hope the shots wont make her fussy all day.

It's That Time of Year

It's that time of year again when summer is over and we send our kids to school. Bailee is so excited to go to Kindergarten. School starts here on the 27th of August. What will we do all day without Bailee? Running errands in less time. Dragging three kids around to more than one store is an errand in itself. I took Bailee school shopping for some clothes and she was so cute she wanted everything she saw. I would pick out a shirt and would say, Do you like this? Of course moms taste didn't match little Bailee's.
I remembered the good old days when my mom would take us school shopping. I love getting new clothes!!
