Increasing our vocabulary and gratefulness...

I feel like I have hit a blogging lull. Over a week with no post and nothing new to note... So I'll just post this cute picture of Grace and tell about some funny things she has said/done this week. Max was in his walker and he was sort of jumping, so I commented and praised him for jumping, so Grace was not going to just sit and let Max get all the attention so she stood up and said, "I jump, jump, jump." Well, she is one, so her feet never left the floor but it was so cute to watch her bounce.
She keeps me laughing, she came in the room and I was talking to Max and she said, "What's happening?" During the sacrament Grace stood up and loudly said, "I want a drink!" She loves to take the sacrament, but doesn't like to wait her turn... And my favorite thing she said this week "Super". I was sarcastically saying it to Mike and she started saying it. I guess it's a good thing I wasn't saying something worse!

Saturday night my sister was preparing her talk for the next day's sacrament on Gratitude. I teased her for procrastinating and told her that was an easy subject. I cursed myself. The next day we got "the call". I'm surprised it took them 4 months to ask us. And our topic, Gratitude. I think I'll borrow Cassie's talk... :) I also am in charge of sharing time this month, I teach primary, Mike teaches Gospel Principles once a month, they called him to teach in priesthood once a month, he is a ward missionary, Grace will not go to nursery, and we have Max. Needless to say, I'm beginning to dread going to church. I feel like I'm juggling a herd of cattle. Eventually my kids are going to cause so much disruption in the meetings they are going to change there minds... Yeah right.

Happy wishes to our friends and families -

I hear you about church. We hit a milestone a couple weeks ago. Kade actually went into Sacrament and sat through the whole thing. He was not quiet but we were just excited he walked through the doors.

Sometimes it's a good thing to not have much to blog about...just enjoy the calm. Grace is darling. Hope church continues to go well. We've had one good week amongst the last 4. Oh, how I used to love sacrament meeting...It is now a three-ring circus! I just have to try to remember the reason I am there is to worship; it's not for me, it's for the Lord!

Grace is funny. Its funny to hear the things they pick up on. And you are brave to do all you do for church, I can barely make it each week let alone each of us have a calling and 2 babies!! That is so hard when they wont go to nursery, Chance didnt go once! Max loves it! Good Luck!
