Rice Cereal

I decided that since Kyler was now four months old and eats a ton that I would try to give him some cereal to see if that would fill him up. Well, here's how it went:

1. Before Cereal


2. First Bite. Not so bad, he's seems to like it.


3. After about 4 spoonfuls, he's not so sure about this stuff.


4. By about 6 or 7 spoonfuls, he's gagging on the stuff.

5. Okay, I think he's had enough what do you think??

In memory of President Hinkley


In memory of president Hinkley's passing, I wanted to share my most fond memory of him. I remember when he was on Larry King live. That interview did so much for our church. He answered questions so well. One of his many strengths was public relations. He had a sense of humor and wit about him that we all loved. I will always remember that about him.
I went back to the CNN transcripts and reread the interview today. Click here to read it.

My friend did this on her blog, so I went and did the test. It said that I was compatable with an Ox or Snake. I thought that it would be fun to see what Josh was. Well, he is a snake so I guess we're compatable. The funny thing is he's extremely afraid of snakes. Anyway here's our results and the link to try it yourself:

Resourceful and practical, you are a quick thinker.
You are very observant - and it's hard to get anything past you!
A total perfectionist, you are especially picky about looking your best.
You're a big dreamer - such a big dreamer that reality can disappoint you.

You are most compatible with an Ox or Snake.



JOSH

You Were Born Under:

Popular and crafty, you are a master at the art of seduction.
You are intelligent and intuitive - and make a savvy businessperson.
You live life to the fullest, even if it means maxing out your credit cards.
Many people are secretly (and hopelessly) in love with you.

You are most compatible with a Rooster or Ox.



Hmm....Should I be worried?? It says that many people are secretly in love with Josh??

Pay it Forward

I won the Pay it Forward contest on Karisa's blog so it's my turn to pay it forward. I'm totally new to this, so I'll just do it my way I guess. I've decided that I am not very good at making New Year's resolutions. In fact, it's the end of January and I haven't put much thought into what I want to work on this year. Maybe, just maybe if I put a few here where others can see I will be a little better about accomplishing them. So, #1 I want to get in better shape and in the mean time loose a little weight. #2 I want to make a monthly budget and stick to it!! #3 Be better about reading the scriptures with the kids. Now, all you need to do is leave some comment about a resolution you are making for the year on this post. Next Wednesday the 30th I will put all the names in a hat and have the girls draw a winner. The winner will receive some sort of prize from me. It's that simple. I can't wait to hear from everyone!

Locks of Love

I haven't cut my hair (except for minor trims) since a few months before I found out I was pregnant. So, I am guessing that it has been about 16 months since I had a major cut. Well, my hair was getting too long and I couldn't stand it any longer. So I decided to get it cut and donate it to Locks of Love. In order to donate your hair it is supposed to be 10 inches, and I could only stand to let go of about 7 1/2 or so. The good thing is that if you are close they can sell your hair to make money to produce the hairpieces with the longer donated hair. So, even though my hair won' t make an actual hairpiece for them it will at least make a little money to help out.




Here's my after pic. I forgot my camera to take a before picture, so I used my phone and I'm not sure how to get that off of my phone.
