Favorite quotes to live by!!!

"Excellence is never an accident. It is always the result of high intention, sincere effort, and intelligent execution; it represents the wise choice of many alternatives - choice, not chance, determines your destiny." Aristotle

"Life is made out of choices." Laura

I read the first quote a few months ago and I loved it!! I believe in this quote completely and it made me think of decisions I've made.

I think that overall I've made some great choices in my life. The first one that comes to mind is Jonathan. I couldn't love him more. He's my best friend, best husband, best father!! I am so proud of him and the man that he's become. I'm also happy that I got so much education. Not only do I feel like I accomplished and finished something great, but I know that I will be able to help so many people along the way. I've made millions of choices so far, some big, some small, but I think that these two are the ones I'm most proud off.

Mommy and baby Jordan!!

I love you so much and love all our time together!!

Mommy loves Jordan!!

Holding Jordan (we are matching :)

Sabbath school has been so much fun since Jordan has been with us!!  It has always been fun, but going to cradle roll has been a blast!  The kids are hilarious!  Jordan sometimes sleeps through the whole thing, and sometimes just the lesson! :)  But he LOVES all the songs!!

More grandparent visits and other things!

My parents came on a business trip to LL just a few days after Bob and Geneva left.

Holding Jordan after coming from the airport

Happy baby

Jordan in full concentration

Jordan loves his leapfrog play seat.  When you hit/pull on the mobil, a light lights up on the top.  A couple of weeks ago I could see his little brain trying so hard to put his right hand inside the ring.  It was amazing when he got his hand inside and held on!!  Now it's his favorite pass time.  He loves getting the light and song to go off together.  He gets a little frustrated when he pulls on the red bird, but wants the blue fish light to turn on!

What a visit!!

Jonathan's parents came to visit Jordan this past week.  We had such a wonderful time!!  They were so excited to meet their grandson and we were so happy to see them again.

Meeting Grandpa Bob and Grandma Geneva

Reading Pip Pip to Jordan

Like always, their visit was full of projects and fun outings.

Before: scraping the old paint

After:  Playground rejuvenated!!

We went to the Wild Animal Park in San Diego and got to meet aunt Jane again.  That's Bob's aunt Jane!!  She is 95 years old and the sweetest lady.  We also went out to eat a lot.  We went to the Lotus Garden..I always forget how delicious it is!!

Benjoran: sitting out on the patio

 I can't believe we got so many things done!!  My favorite one was our old play set got rejuvenated!!! It looks brand new!!  I can't wait for Jordan to play in it.  It's going to be so much fun!!  I wanted to have it all ready to go.  It's my OCD shinning through!  When we were done I realized he  needs to "walk" first.
