Sonic had 1/2 off their cones tonight...so we decided to go after FHE. It was Emily's first one to have all by herself. She was such a mess. She doesn't even like being a mess...and wasn't sure how to handle it. But she still finished it! She did get an immediate bath when we got home!

Time Out
The 2s are in full force in our home. Emily loves to yell...and when I tell her to stop yelling she tries to hit something. Sometimes she hits herself....or the couch...or the floor....or me. So I decided to try timeout when she does yell. She did great the 1st day. She had to stay there until I said she could leave. The next day, she took herself to time out and started yelling in the corner!!! Ha ha ha!!! I guess she wanted to earn her yelling time!

Temple Date
Brock & Katy and my parents are in town. They are all going on a cruise tomorrow. Brock and Katy wanted to make a trip to the temple, so my parents offered to watch the kids so Patrick and I could go. Brock and Katy wanted to go to the 8 am session. That's pretty early for a Saturday! We contemplated not going. A little bit later...I realized that was a lame excuse...and Satan almost got to me on that one! Whew!! We were planning on leaving the house around 7 am to give us plenty of time and not be rushed. But Patrick couldn't find his recommend! We looked everywhere. About 7:20 I told my parents and that we'll probably not make it. But my dad said we could still go and they can look up his recommend! Dodged that bullet too! Then when we got to the temple...since they had to take some time to look up his recommend...we were seconds away from missing our 8 am session!! Sitting in the temple....it was so nice and what a relief to realize we made it! I had such a good experience in the temple...probably one of the best and most spiritual times I've had. Received some promptings...and was given a lot of peace. So so grateful that we had the opportunity to go.
On our way out, I asked Brock to snap a picture of Patrick and me.

Bubbles!
Brock and Katy came into town and spent the weekend with us....since they are moving far far away soon.
They wanted to make it memorable for Elliott and Emily and make sure they will remember them. So they made GIANT bubbles! It was a lot of fun....and the kids, of course, LOVED IT!

Bookworm
I was sewing. Elliott was watching TV in my room. And I went to check on Emily. And this is how I found her! My little bookworm. Clearly, she thinks I don't read to her enough!!
