Bye-bye Kristy-pooh

There is something about having
a best friend that you have known forever to help you
feel like a 17 year old again!
Thanks for the fun Kristy-pooh!
Can you believe we didn't shop at North Park while you were here, What's wrong with us?

Tia (kristy's sweet daughter) and Ella.

Cloth Diapers

Before I was pregnant I was introduced to cloth diapers from my friend Farrah and
since I have been trying to be more environmentally conscience
they were right up my ally.
While I was pregnant I was so excited about getting to use them but once
Oscar was born I was a little afraid; I was worried they were going to be too nasty, leak all over the place and just be too much for me to handle with 4 children.
Once I finally started to use them fell in love (even Gordon likes them).
They are so easy to use, soft, cute and most of all they are good for the Earth.
This is a link to my cloth diaper of choice (Farrah did all the research on cloth diapers and I just reap the benefits. Thanks Farrah!)

Sunday School lessons

A few Sundays ago Josh's Sunday school class was learning about the Holy Ghost. One of the things that was talked about was the fact that he can protect us; Josh quickly raised his hand and asked "Can the Holy Ghost protect us from Aids"?
After his teacher picked herself up off the floor the other children quickly began to ask what Aids was and not knowing what to say she told the kid's that the Holy Ghost can help us make right choices so we don't get aids.
My questions are: how does Josh know about aids and did the other children go home and tell their parents that they learned about aids in church.
Seriously who is this boy I’m raising?

A week of wonderful!

This has been such a wonderful week!

I am happy to say that the children have welcomed Oscar with open arms, especially Ian who can’t get enough of his baby brother; he sits and "pets" him constantly. Josh has really impressed us with his level of responsibility; he is always asking what he can do to help out. Ella loves Oscar too but has very little to do with him because the brother scene is old news for her.

I loved having Gordon at home with me and I wish he would never have to go back, luckily his boss is very understanding and is cool with him working from home.

We are so happy that Oscar is here and I am especially happy not to be pregnant anymore!
