Christopher is almost 5 months old now and I can't believe it! Time flies by so fast. I brought dinner to a friend tonight who just had a baby and it seems like yesterday that I myself was at home and people were blessing me with meals. Amazing how time flies when you become a parent and start watching your kids change so much day-to-day. Well Christopher is somewhat eating rice cereal now and that has been lots of fun. He is a spoiled baby and won't really take bottles from anyone, but he's doing great at giving the cereal a try. While I was feeding him, he kept sneezing, and as you can imagine, it is quite messy afterwards. But at least it makes for a good picture:)
So today has been an interesting day. This morning started off a little rough with us forgetting to set our alarm clocks from coming back late from Bible Study last night and in turn Katherine missing the bus this a/m. So we hopped in the car and took the shortcut route we normally take, but it happened to be closed off, so we took the long way and were late. So Katherine got her first tardy. Ugh, that was frustrating. Sometimes I feel like I'm the one in school again, learning how to be disciplined!
This evening, Katherine and I were playing around and she decided that she'd love to be able to take Baby Pher to school with her someday. She loves her brothers and is such a sweet and loving sister. It was so funny because she stuck him in her backpack and was rolling him around outside like she was about to go catch the bus! And the funny thing is, he actually liked it! Kids do the cutest things sometimes.
After dinner, our Mormon friends came knocking on our door again to chat. We invited them in, gave them some drinks and made chocolate chip cookies. Daniel said he asked if they wanted any tea, soda, or water...and of course they opted for the water...Hahah. This is the 3rd time we've had some come back but this time a new elder was there. So it first started off with Elder A and Elder B, but this week we had Elder A and Elder C there. Elder B had definitely been the weaker link and didn't really know his stuff so you could understand why he was replaced. We talked for about 1 1/2 hours, but didn't feel that this discussion was as productive as the last one, mainly because we were just asking lots of questions about their doctrine, etcc. Anyways, they will be back next Friday to continue our discussion, but asked us to watch the BYU channel this weekend and to listen to the current prophet, Gordon Hinkly, and pray to "our Heavenly Father" to see if he really is a true prophet. Anyways, it's quite interesting and I'm learning a lot about the Mormon beliefs and how it's so contradictory!
Time for bed...family pictures tomorrow!
