A few weeks prior to General Conference we started putting a little more emphasis on Bridget recognizing members of the quorum of the twelve. My sister made her this great “Prophet cards” with the name and image of each member of the first presidency and quorum of the twelve. We keep them in her church […]

Potty Talk, Volume VIII
March 30th, 2009 · 6 Comments · a day in the life, bridget
For those of you unfamiliar, Potty Talk is my ongoing series on the joys of potty training. The first installment was in January 2008, soon after we began potty training with Bridget. Between January and June 2008, a total of seven posts were dedicated to the process. Since then, the potty news fell silent. Until […]

Baby Swing(s)
February 23rd, 2009 · 3 Comments · a day in the life, bridget, spencer
I setup the baby swing for Spencer in the playroom last week so he could be entertained while I played with Bridget. I didn’t realize that it would change what we were playing… Upon seeing Spencer in the swing, Emma (Bridget’s doll) had to swing too. Bridget spent the next 10 minutes pushing Emma in […]

The road to becoming a millionaire can be bumpy at times. Those that have reached that title in their lives are those that learn to have their money work for them. And nearly all of them will tell you that they’ve lost in their investments at one time or another. Without loss there is no […]

Last Sunday we blessed Spencer. It was great to have so many family members join us at church and in our home that day. Thanks to everyone who came, participated, and visited with us. We love you all! Jut for fun, I thought I’d post a picture of our family last Sunday as well as […]

You know those moments when your kids do something that maybe they shouldn’t do, or something that makes you just a little bit nervous, but they are so dang cute doing it that you can’t get mad? Well, we had one such moment a couple of weeks ago… Bridget is excited for the day that […]

Book Report: The Boy Who Whouldn’t Share
January 29th, 2009 · 3 Comments · a day in the life, bridget, random
I picked up this book the other day for Bridget. I wasn’t familiar with the author, but the reviews I’d read intrigued me. After having read it, I have to say that I’m impressed. The text is pretty simple, it rhymes, and it gets the point across. Bridget loved it. We read it at least […]

January 27th, 2009 · 1 Comment · a day in the life, bridget, random, spencer
Its pretty rare to have a warm day in January around here… so when one came we decided to take the opportunity to go for a walk. One of Bridget’s favorite summer activities was to take a walk to the local 7-11 and get slurpees. So when I suggested a walk she immediately requested that […]

With the craziness that is life I managed to neglect this blog a bit over the past several months… at least as compared to my once daily posting regime. As such, many events and life happenings manged to go undocumented. Rather than pretend that I could really catch up and write a post for each […]

Vomit
January 11th, 2009 · 6 Comments · a day in the life, bridget, family, random
Last night Bridget had an accident at a friends house. When we got home (around 8:30) I made her go straight to bed. Not 20 minutes later she was complaining that her tummy hurt. She asked me to rub Vicks on her tummy – she was convinced it would work. A few minutes later she […]
