We’re having a wee little babe tomorrow morning. This Liza girl won’t be the youngest anymore. I’m way nervous about the c-section (sixth & last). But Jimmy gave me a special priesthood blessing tonight which calmed me a little. The kids are anxious about me being gone so long. But Grandma Smith is here to […]

Now that the kiddos are in school, Mr. Truman and Liza have more time with mom. I think the change has been good for Tru. He’s kept busy with some new activities: Loves to build angry birds game and knock it down. He’ll do this for over an hour… trying to knock down Darth Piggie. […]
Kids had a GREAT first day of school. They all rode the bus together (Miss Hannah watching over my Maxwell 1st grader). Max enjoyed having lunch at school. It was a rainy first week of school, which is uncommon for Utah… but the kids have jumped right into their new schedule (now… as for establishing […]

Melanie (aka… Mary Poppins) babysat the rest of the tots. Best explanation of how I felt yesterday…. weary. I caught Truman’s cold […]
Knowing I couldn’t do much with gigantic peach group orders this year (ya know – babe and family take priority), I didn’t plan on doing much… and hoped to turn it over to a neighbor so we could still get fantastic peaches without dealing with all the $ hassle, etc. But Friday I decided to […]
Just thought it would be fun to document my small contribution to our local school. I’m a huge stinker at getting to the school to volunteer (it’s so hard to know what to do with my littles!!). I count this as a huge contribution for the principal. Hopefully my kids see the posters and know […]
