My Great Hubby

Not often do I get on and brag about my husband. I brag about the kids tons, and now that I think about it I brag about myself a lot too, things I've made, cooked, accomplished, etc. Well today is a day to brag about Chris.

Chris has gotten to stay home with us this last week. It has been splendid! He has been such a great help to me and the kids. Here's a list of some of the things he has accomplished this week:
  • Kept C out of trouble
  • Kept C busy with lots of activities
  • Grocery Shopped
  • Mowed the lawn
  • Paid bills
  • Bought Birthday Gifts
  • Baked Birthday Cake
  • Made Birthday gifts
  • Bought fabric for birthday gifts (picked it out on his own!)
  • Made lots of meals
  • Changed Diapers
  • Burped the baby
  • Made the children keep up on chores
  • Kept up the laundry
  • Cleaned
  • Changed Sheets
  • Made sure I kept up my Motrin dosage
  • Was Plumber Joe several days
  • Installed a toilet sprayer
  • Did not bat an eye when we started cloth diapers
  • Rinsed cloth diapers
  • Took the girls to school
  • Rented oldest daughter a Violin
The list could go on. He has been Super Dad this week and it's been great. I know he's tired and probably will get more rest at work, but I REALLY appreciate all his hard work this week. I think I have the best hubby ever.

Today we went to our new ward.  We still have one more week in our current ward but we just wanted to check it out, get our faces known, and possibly drum up some help to unload a moving truck in a couple weeks. Can I just say it was amazing!  We've been to this ward before when Chris was on the High Council so there were a few familiar faces.  That wasn't the amazing part... For the last 2 1/2 years Chris has struggled going to church.  The first year was due to the fact that he was in the hospital and fighting for his life and was unable to physically attend.  Frankly the whole family struggled that year and we stayed home for months because it was too painful to go.  The last year and a half Chris has struggled due to anxiety and panic about church.  He still has a testimony and loves the Gospel, he helps get the kids ready for church and attends when he can but for the most part I'm a single mom when it comes to church attendance.  He cann...

34 Reasons Why I Love You

Today is Chris Birthday! I'm awful about making plans and doing things for him so this year I have tried my best to be better. We are having a small party if you will , with some friends tonight and having his favorite apple cake with caramel topping. I also wanted to give him a little extra and thought I needed to publicly share some of the reasons why I love him. I'm not big on PDA , public displays of affection not the little handheld computer he carries around. So this is very different for me. 34 Reason Why I love You... 34. You like the same TV shows I do 33. If you don’t like the TV show you watch it anyway 32. You are a great Dad 31. You take care of me when I’m sick (even though I’d rather disappear when you are sick) 30. You are very tidy (OK I’m not) 29. You love my cooking 28. If you don’t love my cooking you are kind about it 27. You can cook 26. You support me in my calling no matter how many nights I’m gone, and it's a lot. 25. You encourage me to go t...

Sometimes life changes and we are all trying to catch up

From day one I could tell there was something different about L...he is my 4th child and right from the start I could tell.  I didn't know I could tell.  I knew he was different from my other kids but I didn't have a clue as to why, or what our future would bring. L was my most sweet baby.  All babies are sweet you say, all babies are different.  I know all babies are sweet but I mean this baby was SWEET.  He slept through the night almost from day one, to a mom 6 hours is like an eternity so I'm calling it through the night.  He rarely cried.  When he did and all the normal boxes were checked, feeding, changing, hot/cold, he just wanted to be left alone.  He would lay for hours on the floor on a blanket and watch life happen.  Then he would just fall asleep and take a nap and it was wonderful.  Being a mom of many kiddos it was like this baby was sent to me on purpose to make it easy.  Usually I have a baby and think "I'm not eve...
