First I need to say thanks to a few of my friends. :)

KENDRA MCEVOY- thank you so much for introducing me to Google Reader. It sure is a time saver. I follow so many blogs that it was time-consuming (and annoying) to have to go to each persons blog to see if they had posted something new. I just entered everyones blog into Google Reader and it tells me whenever someone has an update. LOVE it!!!

CARA MILLER- thank you for introducing me to MyLiveSignature. I love to try something new now and then. I had lots of fun choosing a signature. This was the most asian-looking one I could find. Maybe I'll upload my own some time using an asian font from another site. For now, this one is good.

Okay... to the blog. Yesterday I had to stay home from church because Abigail was sick. I hated to miss church because my Sunday School class is super and also I wanted to hear the second part of the message in the worship service. :( At least Mike was able to fill me in on what I missed. I can borrow a recording of the Sunday School class.

Chase stayed home with us also because he has been dealing with an ear infection and is still too snotty to go in the nursery. I had Chase in the walker so he could walk around while I was taking care of things. Abigail and I heard a loud noise and I ran out into the hall to see that Chase had pulled the little table over. The Bible fell onto the walker (landing perfectly), the picture fell to the floor, and the lamp just barefly stayed on top of the stand. Here is a pic after I secured the lamp:

I think his face looks a little worried. :) He seemed shocked at what he had done and saddened when Mommy said, "No, no."

Here's a pic after I told him it was okay. I love his smile and his big blue eyes. AND I LOVE how the Bible landed so nicely onto the tray.

Ethan wanted me to post a pic of him, Blake, & Ali being burritos. We have had an area rug that Mike's parents gave us when they got a new one. It was worn out when we got it and over the years we've had all kinds of stuff spilled on it. The fringe on two corners was coming off from years of vaccuming and from our cat Lilia attacking it. I was very appreciative of the rug but have been trying for a few years to get a new one. So we FINALLY were able to get a new rug. The morning after we got it the kids didn't want to sit on the furniture but only lay on the rug. Here is a pic of them being burritos (or pigs in a blanket) on the new rug.
