Are you praying for us? Here are some things to pray about:

- Kristin had 1 year vaccines last friday, 9/12/08. She has been acting so different ever since, whiney, grumpy, not listening, throwing fits, crying a lot...a little drama queen! So please pray for Kris that the affects of the vaccine will wear off quickly and she will go back to being our sweet little Kristin again : ) (and Justin and I need patience too!) Well, it seems Kris is back to her normal self! Yay! Thanks for you prayers! And we didnt see a rash either, which is awesome!

- I came down with a narly cold yesterday while at work. I think it was just allergies, but it turned into a cold. I sneezed so stinkin much! I think I seriously sneezed about 7 times in a row once I got home. SO, if you can pray for my cold. That I get over this quickly.

- Justin is going away for Friday and Saturday this weekend to our friend Burton's house. He recently moved to San Fransisco. They are attending the game on Friday night and on saturday exploring the city. He will get in Sunday morning before church. Please pray for his safety and they have a blessed time.

Sweet Surprises!

I was so blessed yesterday! Justin was getting ready to head out the door to the office he picks Kristin up to kiss her bye bye, she instead thinks she is going with Daddy so she waves bye bye to me then blows me a kiss!!! It was the cutest thing I have ever seen! I was absolutely floored. I couldnt believe my Kristin can blow kisses! Justin has been teaching her how to do the last couple of days. She makes a fist then brings her fingers to her mouth says, mmmmaaaa and brings her hand down. I need to catch it on video and post it, its so cute! Thank you honey for such a wonderful surpise!

Picture Day!

Today is picture day for our neice's, Dalena & Gracie. They were so excited to do their hair! We woke up extra early to curl their hair and make sure they looked their best. I really have a lot of fun hanging out with these two. They are funny, and witty, and just a pleasure to be around. Im so excited for Kristin to be that age, I can do her hair all curly and just chat about stuff...whatever comes to mind. Im amazed at how random our conversations can be!

After shipping them off to school with Justin I headed off to work. I was 30 min late because their hair took so long to curl. Its been a pretty relaxing day here at the office. Ive done some catch up work and headed home.

I want to go home and see my baby girl. She has been struggling with major constipation. The day before yesterday she had eaten 2 quesadillas from taco bell and then I fed her 2 string cheeses. Both Justin and I feel so aweful! So I hope when I get home she is doing better.

We are going to the park today to meet with my friend Madi. She is visiting from Missouri where she moved to a few months ago. Im excited to see her and hear what God is doing in her life. Its so fun to fellowship with other believers. And see the way God moves in their lives, because we dont always see the way He moves in our own. I love looking at life from the sidelines because you get to see the BIG picture at times.

Tonight is Wednesday so Justin has High School Bible Study tonight at the church office. Ill be hanging out with the Kid getting laundry done.

This is so random but I am so excited that Dancing with the Stars is coming back in 2 weeks!!

More to write later on! Hasta luego!

Signing Time!

Kristin has been watching Signing Time since her first birthday and really likes them! I think she knows more signs than the can do, I know she understands a lot of the ones her daddy and I do on a regular basis. Today is exciting because today is the first day she signed Daddy! She also does the sign for 'more' as well. Its really exciting to see her grow and start to understand things and use the signs for it. its awesome!
