Allison said...: Next time you're in Orem I discovered that Nordstroms at University Mall has a fish tank. It's not just any fish tank either...it has Nemo and Dorry! So, next time you're up here, take her to the kid shoe section for a little free fun. THe fish face will be a hit.; February 6, 2009 at 1:39 PM
Malerie said...: Haha..that's funny! I am loving making Madeline do tricks. This is a fun stage!; February 6, 2009 at 1:43 PM
Chelsea and Cody said...: We are going to get her with her fishy face in a big, beautiful dress! ha!; February 6, 2009 at 2:35 PM

gilliay said...: Chelsea is a broken record. But we love her anyway. I love Brianna's face. I wonder if Emma will do that. She makes a mean face and has just learned how to squeeze her eyes shut. It's fun watching her expressions as the squeezing of the eyes requires mental concentration and coordination for Emma. Aren't our girls so much fun!?; February 6, 2009 at 3:58 PM
Amy Hunter said...: Ok, now that is just darling. But even more than that, can I just tell you how charming those little curls in the back are? I love seeing the little swoops back there!; February 6, 2009 at 11:42 PM
Unknown said...: love this face, I might have to try it with Josie.; February 7, 2009 at 12:18 PM
annieology said...: Too cute.; February 7, 2009 at 1:49 PM
Debbie said...: Enjoy the "cooperation" while you can! Also relish having her wear what YOU want her to, fixing her hair how YOU want, teaching her what YOU want her to know - you get the idea! Chelsea - make a "fishy face" - thanks Chel - Mom; February 7, 2009 at 7:46 PM
Ashley said...: That is pretty cute, I hope that she had a great 1st birthday. Time does seem to fly by with these little ones. It is funny how she walked up to the podium at church, I think Brian thought that was pretty funny.; February 9, 2009 at 7:43 AM
Megan Smith said...: This is one of the benefits of eating a healthy diet of fish high in Omega-3's. I can tell that Brianna is very healthy.

That face is so great!! I might copy the picture and put it on my screen saver.; February 9, 2009 at 10:07 PM
ChrisnDave said...: Ha ha ha ha ha, that's hilarious!!!; February 11, 2009 at 7:07 AM

Quotes I want to remember

"The Lord knows our bearing capacity, both as to coping and to comprehending, and He will not give us more to bear than we can manage at the moment, though to us it may seem otherwise. Just as no temptations will come to us from which we cannot escape or which we cannot bear, we will not be given more trials than we can sustain."
- Neal A. Maxwell

"It is a fundamental truth that the responsibilities of motherhood cannot be successfully delegated. No, not to day-care centers, not to schools, not to nurseries, not to babysitters. We become enamored with men's theories such as the idea of preschool training outside the home for young children. Not only does this put added pressure on the budget, but it places young children in an environment away from mother's influence."
-Ezra Taft Benson

“Perhaps there has never been a time when we had greater need to pray and to teach our family members to pray. Prayer is a defense against temptation. It is through earnest and heartfelt prayer that we can receive the needed blessings and the support required to make our way in this sometimes difficult and challenging journey we call mortality.”
-Thomas S. Monson

“Live the gospel as conspicuously as you can. Keep the covenants your children know you have made. And bear your testimony! Don’t just assume your children will somehow get the drift of your beliefs on their own.
-Jeffrey R. Holland

"We hold in our arms the rising generation. They come to this earth with important responsibilities and great spiritual capacities. We cannot be casual in how we prepare them. Our challenge as parents and teachers is not to create a spiritual core in their souls but rather to fan the flame of their spiritual core already aglow with the fire of their premortal faith."
-Neil L. Andersen

"Certainly there are times when getting the family together to read the scriptures does not stack up as a spiritual experience worthy of a journal entry. But we must not be deterred. There are special times when the spirit of a son or daughter is just right and the power of these great scriptures goes down into their heart like fire. As we honor our Heavenly Father in our homes, He will honor our efforts."
-Neil L. Andersen

President Hinckley admonished both men and women to be nurturers. He said, ‘How much more beautiful would be the society in which we live if every father . . . and . . . mother regarded [their] children . . . as gifts from the God of heaven . . . and brought them up with true affection in the wisdom and admonition of the Lord.’ ”
-Susan W. Tanner

"Children are like trees. When they are young, their lives can be shaped and directed, usually with ever so little effort. Said the writer of Proverbs, 'Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it' (22:6). That training finds its roots in the home. There will be little of help from other sources. Do not depend on government to help in this darkening situation. Barbara Bush, wife of former U.S. president George Bush, spoke wisely: 'Your success as a family, our success as society, depends not on what happens at the White House, but on what happens inside your house.' "
-Gordon B. Hinckley

“I give counsel to husbands and wives. Pray for the love which allows you to see the good in your companion. Pray for the love that makes weaknesses and mistakes seem small. Pray for the love to make your companion’s joy your own. Pray for the love to want to lessen the load and soften the sorrows of your companion.”
-Henry B. Eyring

“Reverent behavior is not a natural tendency for most children. It is a quality that is taught by parents and leaders through example and training. But remember, if reverence is rooted in love, so is the teaching of it. Harshness in our training begets resentment, not reverence.”
-Margaret S. Lifferth

"There is no one perfect way to be a good mother. Each situation is unique. Each mother has different challenges, different skills and abilities, and certainly different children. What matters is that a mother loves her children deeply and, in keeping with the devotion she has for God and her husband, prioritizes them above all else."
- M. Russell Ballard

“As parents, we should remember that our lives may be the book from the family library which the children most treasure. Are our examples worthy of emulation? Do we live in such a way that a son or a daughter may say, ‘I want to follow my dad,’ or ‘I want to be like my mother’?”
-Thomas S. Monson

“Security for our families comes from learning self-control, avoiding the excesses of this world, and being temperate in all things.”
-Kent D. Watson
