Good days and bad days

Good day--Mother's Day!

I had a wonderful mother's day and it was so fun to get together with Sara and Josh and Stacy and their kids. We had a wonderful BBQ outside and Leah loved every minute of it. She loved being able to sit at this cute kid's table. She has become such an excellent eater. It makes my life much easier and I just hope that Lily turns out just as good.

Here is my cake that Andrew bought at DQ on Saturday and we enjoyed every bit of chocolate and ice cream on Sunday after dinner!

Bad Days--Lily's baby acne

Lily's sweet newborn skin has been suffering from baby acne this week. It was so terrinble on Wednesday that I looked online to make sure that it was still just baby acne and not some horrible rash from somethings she could be allergic to. Fortunately, her acne looked just like every other baby's acne that I saw on google. That was a bit of a relief but what was still unsettling was the fact that it could last months. But, as I look at it today as she is here on my lap I realize that it has improved drastically over the past few days. They say not to put any lotions or creams on their faces but just to wash it periodically with a wet, clean washcloth to keep the pores clear of gunk. It has helped a ton! Poor thing.

These pictures were from last Sunday, Mother's Day. You can see that it's starting to form on her cheeks and forehead here.

Good Day--Also on Mother's day

I got to talk to Whitney, my cousin in Honduras on her mission. It was so good to talk to her! I am so excited for her to come home in July. I can't wait! I only wish that I was going to be here in Utah when she moves up to go to the U. OH well, lots of trips back and forth. HOpefully she will want to come to IDaho!

Good day--Tuesday

Stacy and her girls and me and my girls went to Murray park for a little picnic and a fun time on the playgrounds there. We saw little goslings and fed the geese. Stacy has pictures hopefully she will post some soon they are darn cute. Definitely a good day!

Good day--Thursday

I got my hair cut. I think it turned out really cute. I wanted it short and light and that's exactly what I got. It's much easier to do and that's what I need right now!

Good Day--Friday

Andrew is keeping up with his usual goofiness and doing this to the girls.

Lately, leah has been into the whole pacifier thing, she likes to chew on them because they are so rubbery. That's what influenced this little work of art. What a goof.

Well as you can see there are more good days than bad and I'm pretty sure that today will be another good day, hence the beautiful weather and the fact that Andrew will be home all day! yay! (more help with the girls)
