It's TIME!













Woo Hoo!  Tonight I go in to start the induction and Ruby's birthday should be tomorrow. Friday the 13th!  Is that good luck or bad?  I'll just say it is good luck because my sis Gina was born on Friday the 13th and she turned out awesome.  I am nervous and excited but mostly I can't believe I have to do this again!  Birth is not my fave thing in the world.  Some people think it is magical or spiritual and I just think it is mostly painful and gross.  Until you meet your little sweetheart and then you forget about the yucky stuff and then  eventually the bad memories fade until you end up prego again and then to the point where I am, wondering why you signed up to do this crap again!  Today as I was driving around doing some last minute errands I found myself noticing all of the women around that had kids and thinking "Wow women go through so much to bring kids into this world and then they have to raise the little buggers too!"  Yea I know boo hoo!  I love my girls and they are very precious to me and I love to see them with JR.  Sunday on Liv's real birthday she blew out her candles and I asked her what she had wished for.  She said "for my Daddy."  That's the kind of stuff that keeps me going.  I love the moments when you feel strong family unity and love.  That's what makes it all worth it.  And those are the times when I look at my awesome hubby and think "I could totally have a million of His babies!"  SCARY!  Well #5 here we go!

Tile Table

When my Grandma Johnson's house was being cleaned out we came across some extra tiles from when my Grandpa had tiled her kitchen for her. She loved blue and I'm sure she was delighted when He put up these blue white and brown tiles. Her kitchen was always where family congregated, as she was an excellent cook, and we all spent countless hours there with her and Grandpa. I remember a time when I was pregnant and my Mom and I had driven up to Provo to do some shopping. We talked about going to see grandma before we drove home and I said "Wow, you know I am really craving her apple pie right now! Wouldn't that be awesome if she had baked one today." Well as luck would have it we pulled up just as it was coming out of the oven. She didn't even know we were coming to visit! She had just felt like baking a pie. I have a zillion memories of her in her kitchen and so when her house sold I knew I needed a little piece of something that would stir up good feelings every time I looked at it. Nothing could be more perfect than tiles from her kitchen. So a couple of days ago I finally dug the tiles out and made a mosaic table for my front porch. I love it, and love having a little reminder of her.
