Breath Savers

So it is a rule of mine to never go to church without some gum or a mint, ESPECIALLY on fast sunday. Whoa seriously. Well anyways growing up I would always laugh at people inchurch when their small kids would say something out loud and humiliate them. Well I guess it was pay back time for laughing at everyone else. So there I am in Sacrament reading Tucker the story of King Noah and Abinadi. I was really feeling like "yeah I got my 3 yr old way interested in this story". Then OUTLOUD Tucker pinches his nose and says Ewwww GROSS! At first I was like okay what just happened did I say something. Then he proceeds with " Yuck mom your breath stinks.". I was so embarassed I mean here we are in testimony meeting in the front row with some woman bearing her beautiful testimony and I am laughing because I am so embarrassed. Then Tucker sees me laughing so he thinks it is a funny thing and keeps saying it over and over. I was so embarrassed. I mean what do you do? Well, there is nothing you can do but pop a fresh piece of gum and chew really really well.
So I guess the moral of my story is to not laugh at your neighbor because it will come back to bite you in the butt BIG TIME!

Personality

So I found this test on Heather's blog and just had to try it because I think tests can be fun. Pretty interesting.

You Are An Intro-Extrovert!

Sometimes you're social - sometimes you're shy You've got a bit of an Introvert / Extrovert split going on You enjoy all sorts of situations. Parties, small groups, and alone time. Too much of one, and you'll long for the other. You need variety! Chances are, you've got both serious and fun friends - and they don't get along.

Are You An Extroverted or Introverted Girl?

Tucker

So I can't sleep....obviously. I have alot of thoughts going through my head right now. All of them are about my baby boy. It started out like this...I went up to bed at like 11:45 because I was tired. So I go and I start to say my prayers and then I just start thinking alot about my little boy. All of the days events start rushing through my mind and some of them where I either lose my patience and snap at him or I am getting annoyed with the constant crying and whining because he didn't get his way. Then, I see his sad face and the tears in his eyes. Then, I hear him saying "oh mommy I'm so sorry.". Now I am crying. I am lying in bed silently crying thinking how in the heck can I be like that to such a sweet, beautiful little boy. How can I waste such precious time w/ my baby by getting frustrated and impatient with him when he is just a child. Then all of the sudden I hear "I'm thirsty". Right away my heart lept...I felt like he woke up on purpose, I mean yeah he was thirsty but I felt like it was for me. I got out of bed and just held him, and kept telling him how much I loved him. Then he softly told me he was thirsty again so I got him some water and went and layed with him in bed. I held him for a while before he fell asleep and just thought about how I wanted to be different. I want him to remember me as always (or most of the time) being happy and not always being rush rush hurry we have errands to run and not enough time to play. Siiiiiiiiiiiiigh.
So, I know this is an extremely odd blog but I guess I am also trying to see if I am not the only one that feels this way. Does anyone else go through this. I always see everyone else being so kind and patient. I feel like such a monster sometimes.

And more pictures....

So yes there are more pictures! Sorry so many at once I just want you all to see our fun summer!

End of our Utah trip

So this was the end of our FABULOUS trip to Utah. We were able to see the beautiful Salt Lake Temple and have some good family time. While we there we stayed with Ron and Julianne (Beau's brother) so our kids were able to play and have a good time with their cousins.
The two girls in the picture with me are my sisters Olivia (the protector) and Rebecca (my beautiful twin). I was able to meet up with them and go to the park and then to the Pie for dinner. A very good ending to a very fun trip. We love you all
