Success!

 Life from Emi's perspective. She snatched these lovely shots as I was writing our grocery list today. haha.




Today was a big day. Marty and I finally decided to pull out a violin and play it for Emi. She's recently been loving the violin grandma and grandpa got her, so it seemed she was ready to have Mom and Dad play for her. Well...good news! No tears. Marty even played "Happy Birthday" for her on the violin and she didn't cry! I think our baby's finally over her fear of the violin (and Happy Birthday). Yay!!!


Not related to the pictures or Emi but I had the weirdest experience today. We were trying out a new story time, and I went to move my diaper bag and it caught on a zipper on my pants and I couldn't get it off for the life of me. I was so embarrassed and didn't know what to do. I kept pulling at it and nothing. So Emi and I took an excursion to the front desk and they thought they might have pliers in their maintenance closet I could use. While they were gone looking for pliers, I was able to rip the bag off my pants--I thought the zipper on my pants would be a goner for sure-- but by some miracle everything remained intact. So random and weird! I honestly don't know how that happened, but I hope it never happens again. haha

I figured I'd be pregnant within the first few months of the new year, but nope. God had other plans. I was called as YW President in January (a shock to everyone including me!) and that consumed a lot of my time and energy throughout the year. It's been a rewarding experience.  I started weight training for the first time in my life and discovered that I really loved it. Last December, HR closed their rec center childcare and I was crushed because that meant I could no longer go to their daytime classes. I thought nothing could compare to those classes. But I was so wrong. I have loved the cardio/weight training at Chuze and have loved going to classes with my friends several days each w...

Baby #2

 And baby #2 is a... GIRL! Bring on the pink. Marty's not a huge fan of gender reveals...but I thought it'd be fun to do a little something. I ended up bringing pink donuts to YWs and surprising the girls. The girls gave me all the reactions I had hoped for ;)
