Lexi's cute pose! Very rare & so adorable! With a little bit of chocolate on her face she was quite the model!

Random Thoughts

   I had my first doctor's appointment last week. We got to see the heartbeat, so that's a relief! The doctor said everything looks good & I'm due Nov. 9th (the day after me & Jeff's anniversary). But hopefully it'll come sooner.

  I really enjoyed Elder Bednar's talk on making our prayers more meaningful. Sometimes I'm too tired to put any thought into my prayers, sometimes I say them to just say I said them. I need to try harder to make the best use out of my time.

  Of course I enjoyed Elder Ballard's talk that was directly toward young mother's. I think every young mom gets frustrated & feels like giving up at some point. It's good to hear that Heavenly Father & His leaders are aware of our struggles. And just to have someone acknowledge that gives me hope & the will to keep pushing. 

  I would love to hear what you young mom's do with your kids to keep out of the monotonous daily tasks.

Happy Birthday Jeff!

   I have to brag about my adorable husband. He turned 26 today and I hope he has a wonderful birthday!

   I love Jeff because 1: he willingly helps with the kids after he comes home from work  2: Is always so happy and cheerful & helps me look at the positive things in life  3: Can give me a blessing on a whim. I love that he holds the Priesthood & can bless my family's life with it 4: He's always looking for ways he can serve me. He's so selfless & caring & loves to serve me  5: Cooks breakfast for us every Saturday 6: he's so patient & kind, he's such a good father. Both of our kids just adore him! 7: He teaches me about the gospel, he can always answer my questions, he helps me learn and grow as a person. 8: He has a desire to do better & is such a good example 9: I love that he does what he has to do to provide for our family so that I can stay at home with our kids 10: He's supportive of the things I want to accomplish.

   There's a few reasons why he's so great, but there's many more! There's just not enough time to say everything. Happy Birthday Jeff! I hope you have a good day!
