opening presents!

watching "larry boy"… the birthday boy's pick!
nora worked hard all afternoon to make him this present! she colored and cut out all the pictures of the lego characters and made him a "poster". so precious!!
today, the kids and i ventured to church by ourselves. christopher has been throwing temper tantrums when he doesn't get his way. or when i won't hold him. and i couldn't carry him up the stairs to church. so he threw a temper tantrum. when he got to the top, i picked him up and carried him in to the nursery.
when i got there, he was still screaming. and i expected to have to walk in with him and calm him down. but the dad working the nursery just took him and walked away from the door so i could escape.
then, i walked in to church and nursed the babe. when he fussed for a second, another mom just took him and cuddled him through the whole service.
after church, a mom came up and said her husband could come and pick up the boys after naps and take them to the park! (i, SADLY, had to say no to that… or a rain check)
i left church feeling so OVERWHELMINGLY loved and cared for. and then, some girl friends threw me a shower. and we spent the afternoon just enjoying the company of our friends! what a blessed life!!
