Iron Man

We rented Iron Man and was watching it, Craig was being cuddly and a little sad, but then he decided to lay down on the floor and watch it. He saw the strong iron man and picked up the chair, look how strong he is!!

Then, iron man flew, so Craig and Grandpa were trying it too. luckily, no actual jumping and injuries.

special words for us

I was able to go to the RS broadcast, listen to conference all day yesterday and today and WOW! i realized last week that I needed to decide to be happy and proceed to do so. I did all last week and I think it really helped. I still had some hard times, but it helped. I know how much I am loved, both here on Earth and from those above and listening to His words for me at the RS broadcast was wonderful.

I love President Uchtdorf!! (might have spelled wrong) both last Saturday and yesterday, he spoke words that truly touched me! if you missed the women's broadcast, please read his words. I think it uplifted and helped all women feel better and more appreciated. Heavenly Father really does love us and wants us to know that.

My blessing

Since the sun is rising later and later, Trevor has been getting up and to work before the sun is all the way up. now, we are not really morning people. But Saturday morning, Trevor woke me up at 6:00 and asked me to get myself and Craig dressed, silly Craig was already awake and doesn't understand weekends.

So we get in the car and i don't know exactly what's going on. we end up driving up to red rock to try and see the sunrise, however mountains were in the way, so we opted for the mountain west of fort apache over by warm springs and rhodes ranch. of course, i left my camera at the ross's, but Trevor was great enough to bring our video camera.

He brought our jean quilt (Cyndi we still love them!!), some cut up fruit, donuts, hot chocolate, cups and juice!! also, it has been hot up until Saturday! but he did tell us to get tennis shoes on and brought us our sweaters.

the clouds got in our way, but it was still wonderful! i enjoyed driving around and being surprised by my magnificent husband. Craig and him even got to go for a walk.

We came home and Craig was able to jump on the trampoline before conference (and a little during too :D ). he still had his sweater on for a while, but the day did warm up a little.

the weather has been beautiful today and yesterday. we opened our window and door and let all the air in.

It reminded me to enjoy our time together and to cherish my wonderful little family. The world was so quiet early in the morning and we were just enjoying our time. We also saw many airplanes and Craig LOVED that.

weekly Update... sorry, not funny like SNL

This was what Craig wore last Sunday! he was just so stinking cute, I had to get his picture! on our way out the door, he found a pumpkin and this bubble blower, and watned to play with it! He looks like an old man blowing his pipe.

it wasn't really october yet, but he is ready already!

The other night, I read him a story and laid him down and he snuggled with a book under his arm. he ended up moving around, but i'm so glad he loves books already! another night, I reaed a peek-a-baby book that he recieved for his birthday from my cousin Crystal. He was so funny. i suck in air, and then say peek a boo and he was doing the same thing. i never noticed he was copying me until that night. he's such a cutie!

This week went pretty well. I did not have to work friday! it meant i didn't make any $, but i got to spend the entire day with Craig and it sure was needed. Craig has cried everyday I leave. on enight this week, Trevor had leave for class or a meeting, and craig got so sad and started crying. I really think we need to spend more time together. Trevor is not going to be helping out with his student engineering group, ASCE, so hopefully that will help. also, the afternoon class just went on track break!! so hopefully i will have after noons off for the next little while.

JOB UPDATE:

last week, they started hiring newly graduates. or so I heard. i still have not received any calls. the principal I am working with offered me two things. I can stay on as the afternoon kinder teacher, or I can wait a little bit and see if i get any calls. i asked her if we could wait. she is giving me until Friday the 10th. but that was on Monday and I haven't heard a thing!! so, monday or tuesday, i will accept the job, keep on subbing for the maternity leave, possibly subbing in the afternoons just at that same school when needed. it will be probably my most difficult year, but at least i'll get it over with. all teachers get a difficult group of kids about once in their teaching. but i will be bale to feel like it is my class, not just the class i'm borrowing.

ENJOY OCTOBER!
