It's just not fair!



My little chunker Hailey is such a good baby. She is happy, healthy and a delight to care for. Recently she has begun babbling, of course she is loudest during the most inconvient times...at the movies, during meetings and she is especially loudest during Sunday School.
"Oh what a cute baby," everyone says. It's true, she is an adorable baby, what mother doesn't say that? However, it's not fair. When you see these huge chunky thighs on this little girl of mine I hear comments like, "Ohhhhh I just want to squeeze those chunky legs." Well this baby totally takes after her momma, thunder tighs and cankles. No one ever says to me, "Look at your chunky thighs Melissa, they are so cute. I just want to pinch them!" Why doesn't anyone think my thighs and my cankles are cute. They are just as chunky as Haileys....it just not fair!

Jake and His Prophet


Jake and His Prophet

Jake and I went on a date a couple of weeks ago on a Saturday Night. We were shopping at a bunch of different stores in Provo, things I wanted to do but can't with the whole family, Jake and I ended up at the Distribution Center in Orem. While we were looking around, Jake found a picture of President Gordon B Hinckley, our beloved Prophet. Our conversation went like this,

"Mom, can I have a picture of President Henkwey?"
"Why do you want a picture of President Hinckley?"
"Because he died and I want to remember him."

What a precious little guy Jake is. The next day we took his new picture and hung it up where he wanted it to be, by his bed so he could remember him every night. For the past 2 weeks every time Jake prays he says, "Bwess President Henkwey because he died and went to heaven to be with Jesus and Heavenwy Father." He can be such a sweet boy!

Bad Hair Days


Hannah

Hailey

She's Gettin' Crafty


I made this cute bag for Hannah yesterday for her church stuff. I'm so proud of myself. I gave it to her and she showed me that she decorated it.




She is so creative and descrutive.
