M is for...

Monster, monkey, milk, marshmallow...Taught the letter M in preschool today. The kids made cute little monsters and music makers. Will post picture soon. Spent the day with S & P for wedding pictures, etc. Very productive. Nat watched my girls, thanks! Ivan watched Ed Bass Master movies and laughed all night long.

One more goatie gone.

We sold one more goat today. Now all we have left is Sheeba and her three new little goats, brownie and princess(who are both pregnant.) Its a nice feeling having less animals to take care of since we will be adding one more addition to our own family. One more thing is that our chickens are now laying eggs! Its kind of fun having your own home grown eggs for breakfast-They just taste better:)
Not much else to report today. I will be teaching Yoga to all of the YW tonight for mutual followed up with some protein shakes. Should be a nice relaxing evening!

Yes! It is worth it!

Had a great moment today.... I was listening to Marlee and her cousin Bromley playing and Marlee grabbed her kite that we made in preschool last week and starting singing the kite song we taught them that ONE day! I was so excited! I always think, "Do any of the kids even remember anything we teach them?" or "Is the prep and time making an impact on anyone?"  Well, today answered my question!

Speaking of today and preschool... we talked about the number 12 and how there are twelve months in a year and they made calendars. They decorated egg cartons last class that had twelve cut out eggs in them. We watched the old school, Sesame Street counting song. You know the know that goes along with the pinball... one two three four five six seven eight nine ten...eleven twelve. And Marlee slept for more than 12 hours last night. Poor girl was so tired, she fell asleep at 6:30pm and I had to wake her up at 8:00am for preschool.

Bromley stayed at our house last night and will again tonight and its fun having a boy around. Its prepping me for our little boy:) He enjoys playing with the girls, but definitely went straight for the cars, balls and trains when he played in the toy room!We love having him over. They all play so well together.

After we ALL took a nap today (yes, including me.) Josie went straight into my bedroom and starting looking for Ivan. I could hear her saying, "Daddy, where are you?" She was looking under the blankets, in the bathroom, in our closet, and couldn't find him. She was sad when I told her that he was still at work. I am sure that when he comes home tonight, she will be beaming and smiling!

Three day weekend

I Really enjoyed the three day weekend that we had since Ivan had today off. We slept in, went to the park, helped Gavin with math, Sasha with wedding planning, hung out with the Mack family, and just had a pretty relaxing day! Back to reality tomorrow!

Two Sundays in a row...

Two Sundays in a row we have had breakfast for dinner and I LOVE IT! There is just something so good about homemade, whole wheat waffles with berries and homemade whipping cream served with a side of over easy eggs! (Must be a pregnancy thing?)
Sunday School lesson on missionary work and being good examples to people through the way we live our life. Makes me want to be more righteous and know that we should be living each day so that "Those who don't know Him will want to know Him because they know you."

Great Date Night

Went out to eat with Ivan, went to the temple and then got some ice cream. Doesn't get much better than that. (Actually, I really don't mind what we do as long as I get to be with Ivan without the kids--Its refreshing!)

Bye Bye goaties...

We sold three of our goats today. Not sad at all. Especially since we have three cute little two week old baby goats.
