Bright and Early

I woke and bright and early and went to Trichelle's to watch the grands since Kimleighel is at a conference in Provo.  I had a wonderful time with them.  Behr woke up just as Trichelle was leaving and he looked at little confused when I went to get him up.  I bet he was wondering where Kimi or his mommy were.  I fed him and enjoyed him for awhile before Ivy got up.  Ivy sets her own alarm and gets up and makes her bed and gets ready for school and then today she sweetly woke Zaden up.  I was down checking on Behr because he was swinging and going to sleep and I heard Ivy's voice.  I was planning on waiting a few minutes before waking Zaden up.  When I heard Ivy talking I walked upstairs to see who she was talking to.  I found her sitting by Zaden's bed reading him a story.  Zaden was peeking out of his blanket, kind of leaning over the bed.  My heart just about melt.  I thought that was about the sweetest act of kindness and love ever.  Ivy finished the book and then Zaden got up happily and got dressed.  (I made his bed) Ivy helped Zaden get his cereal and milk too.  I just watched and beamed.  What sweeties!

Behr and I had a good time.  Behr is very mobile and I had to keep bringing him back to his toys.  He liked heading for the stairs and climbing them and is really got at it.  He prefers to be in between the coaches and climbs right over the barricades that are set up to keep him out.  He really liked crawling to a suitcase that has a basket of flowers on it.  It's easy for him to pull himself up and he liked pulling at the flowers.  When I got tired of chasing him I would put him in his activity seat.  He got wore out a few times and took some short naps.  I didn't accomplish anything.  I took a book to read and didn't open it and I also took burpies to crochet and didn't work on them either.  I enjoyed playing with Behr.

We played Patty Cake a few times and he loves when we "roll it" and "pull it" and will giggle and wrinkle his little nose every time.

We went for a walk and Carla stopped by and came with us.  Just as we started my arm started to itch and I looked down and noticed that a bunch of capillaries had popped and were in the shape of a heart.  I think it's so bizarre and do not like it one bit.  I think I'm too young to have this happening!  I might be known for wearing long sleeves all year, or arm sleeves.

I taught Carla how to crochet around some bibs that we went and bought and then I took the boys to my house to play.  Behr stayed up a long time and when he finally did go down it wasn't for long.  Behr loves Zaden and liked doing what he was....playing the Wii.

It was fun watching the kids!  I sure adore them all so much.

I went to SNAP as soon as Trichelle came to get the boys.  I had been wondering about a few things with the production and was going to talk to Angie about them but didn't need to because she answered my questions immediately without me even asking.  I had wondered if I had a place I was suppose to be sitting and also if I was suppose to be helping with anything particular.  I knew the other leaders had been assigned seats and jobs but I didn't think I had.  I had just been making sure the other leaders were helping the kids when needed.  Angie noticed those exact things earlier this day.  She hadn't given me an assignment or chair and made those adjustments.  I was happy about it all.  It's going to be a fun little production.
