Elasticity

Heidi watched an episode of Sid the Science Kid and when it was over she ran up to me and said, "My bed has elasticity so that I can bounce on it!" Ha ha! At least she is learning something from an educational show! :)

God's Taking Care of Me

Tonight we were having quite a hail storm so I went in to check on Heidi since we had just put her to bed right before the storm hit. She looked pretty calm but she let me know she didn't like the noise. Before I could even say anything reassuring she said, "I know God is taking care of me, but can I have my monkey?" :) How could I say no to that? It was so sweet to hear her say that!

I guess it's about time I post about our sweet baby boy, Corbin!

He was born on Sunday, March 25th at 12:54 p.m. (Heidi was born on a Sunday at 12:55 p.m.) :)

He weighed 8 lb. 10 oz. and was 21 in. long... a big boy!

He is now 7 weeks old. It's hard to believe. He's doing great! He sleeps pretty well, occasionally all night. 

He has started to give us some really sweet smiles! I have yet to catch a good one in a photo though.

Here are some photos from the past several weeks.

If a Mom Cleans a Kitchen

This evening I think I came up with a good book idea that moms can relate to. It's a spinoff of the books like "If You Give a Mouse a Cookie".

If a mom cleans a kitchen she will find trash that needs to go in the recycling bin. If she throws that trash in the recycling bin she will remember she wanted to put some paper shopping bags in the recycling bin. She will go to the laundry room to get the paper bags and see the piles of laundry on the floor and remember she wanted to do some laundry. If she puts some clothes in the washer she will remember there is more dirty laundry in the bedrooms. She will get the laundry and put it in the washer and start a load. She will remember to get the paper bags and put them in recycling which reminds her she was cleaning the kitchen. If she cleans the kitchen she remembers she needs to cook dinner. If she looks in the refrigerator she notices she needs to clean it out and throw out some old food. When she finishes cleaning the refrigerator she realizes it is too late to cook something and decides to just have sandwiches for dinner.

It's a never ending job, isn't it? I guess I could just say homeowner just as easily as mom.
