Primary Program

Our primary program was given today and they did a wonderful job. I am very glad that it is done and I don't have to worry about it for another year. Luckily I have wonderful counselors and chorister to help make my calling easier. Our theme was "My Eternal Family" and all year long we talked about our families and returning back to our Heavenly Father. My stress level kept going up as this last week progressed. I worried about not having the children show up and them not sitting reverently while on the stand. I was amazed by how many showed up and how well they did. We have sacrament last and so while we were practising I was already starting to cry. Their were times during the program I would tear up and when it was my turn to talk at the end, I had to compose myself in order to talk. I thought it went extremely well. I really do love my calling and am grateful for it.

4 months old

Our cute Makenzie is now 4 months old. She is getting so big so fast. She did have her doctors appointment this past week and she is very healthy. She did get shots and cried really hard for a minute and then calmed down. When we got home I gave her medicine to help with the pain. I had to go to work that night so I told Matt to keep an eye on her. Well she had quite the fit and screamed for half an hour. Matt finally gave her a little bit more medicine, even though it was not time for more, and she was able to calm herself down to go to sleep. Poor girl. What a ruff day. Her stats are as follows:
Lenght - 26 1/2 inches
Weight - 18 lbs 9 oz
Head - 43 cm
She was off the charts. We have one big baby. She does not look 4 months but she sure is cute. She loves to be held, can roll over, laugh, smiles all the time, loves to chew on her hands, only wants a pacifier when she wants to sleep, and lets you know when she is tired or hungry. She really is such a calm and mellow baby. We just love her and so does Carson. He can't wait until she can play with him.
We decided to take some pictures. Enjoy!


I just love this picture.

Are we done yet?

What a cute SMILE :)
