Baby Blankets for The Big Day

Today has been a pretty good day. Got up early because the kids wouldn't sleep past 6.am. Started working on 2 receiving blankets for Tessla. Got those two done and decided to find some way to make some burp rags too. The blankets turned out really good. And I was pretty proud of myself for making the burp rags. I have never done those before.

I got to take a nap and got dinner made for me. Devlin is such a good man and I could not ask for a better husband! I love him so much!

I have been watching the olympics all day, I really only like the swimming and gymnastics. But it's been a very relaxing and wonderful day.

I am waiting for Kristina to come over and see me. She told me she would come over. I hope she does. I haven't seen Brylee in weeks and I miss both of them. I hope she follows through on her word and will come over, I wanna show her the blankets I made for Tessla.

We are leaving around 8:30a.m. to drive to Flagstaff to see Tessla. Her baby shower is tomorrow and Dana said she would help me with gas money if she could come. GIRLS DAY!!!!! Ha Ha. I think Devlin wants to go, but we don't have a babysitter for the boys and we don't have enough room to bring all of us.

Mom and Grany are on their way home from Idaho. They have been gone over a week and I miss them. I bet they enjoyed being able to visit with everyone. I am jealous! I only get to see my brothers, dad, cousins, aunts and uncles up in Idaho once a year. This year is looking pretty bleak on being able to afford to drive to Idaho this year. My dad has a girlfriend, named Lisa. I am hoping that one day soon, they can fly to Vegas or into St. George so that I can see them. I always go to see my dad, I make the effort to try and always see him when he is close by. But sometimes I wonder if I am even a priority for him. If I don't call him, it will be 6 months or more in-between phone calls. Ive tried to explain to him that it hurts my feelings, and he does try. But with both of our lives being so busy. I wish he would make more time for his only daughter!

Anyways, now that I have vented a little for the day. I am glad to say that I will get to see my mom tonight and Tessla tomorrow. Its a good weekend.

Love you all!

Trace's 1st Day of Preschool

Trace's First Day of School - Preschool It was so much harder to drop Trace off at school. My little boy has been so excited to start school. He needs some friends, some socialization, and a good place to learn. I took Trace to school and had to stay an hour to make sure he was ok. He played with puzzles the first couple minutes. Sat on the rug after cleanup. Everytime some other child would touch him, he would move away. It was breakfast time, and I help his table pass around the food, and open their milks. After that I just sat back and watched to see how Trace would handle all the kids. He seemed to do just fine, just unsure about what they wanted him to do. After we cleaned up  breakfast, I stood back and he played with puzzles again. I told him I loved him and he said bye to me and I left. I was really worried about how he would do. Would he nap? Would I have the same problems as they did with Cason? Would he be easier or harder to handle? Come to find out, he did nap, and h...

Pickle Time

Image
Well I have had a bad day today. Between mean customers and only being able to see my Grandma and Grandpa Heintz for 45 minutes, I've got a headache and I'm irritated. I decided to can some pickles to ease my frustration. It always helps me feel better when I cook, bake, or can something.  I got my first crop of cucumbers today and was pretty proud of myself for canning 3 jars of pickles. (While cutting my finger on the slicer in the process). I hope these pickles turn out ok. I made a ton of pickles last year and I only got like 2 slices. People wanted to buy them by the jar full last year.  Grandma and Granda Heintz was driving from Idaho (they went to pick up Lilah to take her to Phoenix for school) and they wanted to stop by and see us. The original plan was that they were going to spend the weekend. Grandpa hurt his back and they are going to go home earlier then expected. I was glad I got to see them for at least an hour and visit. I just got off the phone with ...

Cason's 1st Day of Kindergarten

Image
Cason's First Week of School - Kindergarten So many mixed emotions for me. I took Cason to his first day of school and I  felt so sad to leave him there. He did great and is already learning so much. His teacher is Mrs. Christensen (Shelley is how I know her, she used to be my young women's teacher). I hope she is able to keep Cason in line. He has to have his mind constantly doing something challenging or he gets bored and gets into trouble. So far, so good. Lets hope he doesn't cause her too much grief this year! He wants to be a fire fighter Cason next to Vincent
