And it is soooo refreshing that you AREN't expecting again already! I'm glad I'm not the only one hopping on the baby wagon wheel so fast!; June 27, 2009 at 4:53 PM
chelsea mckell said...: We would LOVE to see you guys! We'll be there on the 4th and 5th.
On Saturday we don't have any plans past 1pm. On Sunday we're in SLC from about 10-2. So we could stop by before or after. Or meet up at a park and let the girls play (nicely, hopefully. Brianna is still working on her social skills). 801-358-1530, and I have Glenn's number if it's still the same from a year ago; June 27, 2009 at 6:51 PM
Amy Hunter said...: You are so cool. I love that I'm friends with a runner. And, how exciting that you are thinking of adding another wife for my boys...so, next weekend is kindof tricky. We are housing family from Idaho for the 4th, but we'd love to see you too! Don't know our plans as of yet, but if you are in the hood, stop by!!; June 27, 2009 at 7:09 PM

Mandy said...: yay for you! That's great that you are so into the running still! so . . . are you expecting to be pregnant soon?; June 28, 2009 at 9:26 PM
Ashley said...: Hey..I am going to do the 5k and my mother in law is doing the 10k. Are you guys going to stay in SF or what is your plan? It will be fun to see you. I am not really in the best shape for the race, but that is okay.

Also....Brandi told me that pre-registration for the Speedy Spaniard 10k is before July 6th. This is the race on the 24th of July in Spanish Fork. I am planning on doing it and I know that Clint will also be in it. Melissa may as well.

See you Friday or Saturday or Sunday...depending on the plans.; June 30, 2009 at 12:52 PM
Ivy Lou said...: Sure, sure, sure. Now you are thinking of another baby....after you move away from us! I only have about 6 weeks left or so and since the doc is going to be out of town for the whole time around my due date, I think we will have the baby on August 7th (since we are having a c-section we get to pick the day.) I guess that only gives me 5 weeks. I told Mitch that since there is wifi at the hospital he has to post some pics for me as soon as we can.; July 2, 2009 at 10:59 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
