Friday's Fabulous Five

1. I loved conference this time. I felt like the first session spoke most directly to me and some of my concerns. It's nice when Heavenly Father doesn't make me wait for it :)


2. Monday was a great day. I guess it's too personal to share, but I had some nice little A-HAH moments that will make life much more pleasant I think! (why do I share this much info and not the rest, not sure :) but I wanted to acknowledge that it was a fabulous thing and I am grateful)

3. On Tuesday, Chris and Stephanie stopped by with their cute little NEW baby and let me and Noah hold her. It's so nice to have them for friends. They're always so thoughtful. It was a great way to break up our day and helped it go faster :) Chris played a million games and threw the boys around for the whole 2 hours they were here. He had to be exhausted! Especially considering the lack of sleep he's been suffering from with the new one. Noah was absolutely adorable with baby Sophie. He was begging to hold her and Stephanie so sweetly consented. Not too many first time moms would let a not quite 2 year old hold their 1 week old baby, but she did. He LVOED it. You can tell from the pictures how infatuated he is with her. I love that he is so gentle with babies and loves them so much. His little sister is lucky.

4. Brad's birthday was awesome. It was long awaited and OVER planned, so it was nice to have it over, but I was sure happy with how things went.



5. On Thursday, the boys (ALL 3 of them) played in the playroom for a good hour and a half!!!! THey just PLAYED!!! It's been a while since they did that and without fighting. Noah was really involved too, which is very fun for me. Bradley was breaking in all of his new toys and Luke and Noah were playing cars mostly. They asked if they could dump out the drawer with the cars, and then after they did they played in the drawer :). They played with the cars a lot too, Noah kept trying to sit on them saying, "ide" (I assume for "ride"), it was hilarious!! He looked like he was sitting on the race car track and then I realized what he was doing. So funny. He was also saying good bye to the cars as they went down the track. He's a nut. After they played together in the playroom for such a long time, we went upstairs and everyone ran around and played with Grandpa for another hour. So cute!!!! Fun stuff.
