New Toy



I bought Sydney a baby stroller last week. She loves it. She wants to take it everywhere. One day, we belted it in the car next to her and took it to Nephi.

Remodel

We have been busy the last little while remodeling our basement. Jason painted out "red room" cream. It's a amazing how much bigger it looks now. Then we worked on the family room together. We thought the striped wallpaper and rustic boards were great until we lived in the darkness of it. I had the fun job of pulling off wallpaper. I actually don't mind it. It kinda relaxes me, as sick as that sounds! He pulled off boards. Then we primed and painted together. We haven't got the room put back together yet, but here's a peek...

Sydney was involved in everything. She just didn't understand why she couldn't scrape the walls after they were painted.

Jason had fun pulling off the boards. There was a dark green, almost black paint underneath them. So we primed those walls gray.
This was the worst part of the project, pulling off the wallpare in a space I didn't fit in.
Jason priming the red room.
Our food storage area after. I need to treat the cabinets before I move things back.

Being Silly

Sydney loves to wear mama's shoes! As soon as she sees our closet open, she runs into and get them. Here's a little clip...

I survived my first sharing time on Sunday. It was actually really easy. It was about mothers and their responsibility to nurture. I had a bunch of nurturing actions on paper. I had a child comer up and drawn one, then act it out. It was so fun. I also had the Sr. Primary do a dot to dot at the end. I love my new calling. It is definately where I am suppose to be right now. I get to conduct this week. Hopefully that will go well. I'm sure it will. I trust in the Lord.
