Let's Pray

Yesterday James started to pray with us at meal time. It is so cute! Sophia has always been really good about this. She stops eating if she has already started and will pray with us before the meal. Sometimes she even reminds us that she is waiting to pray. Well, now James has joined in. He had the biggest smile on his face while we prayed and he kept his hands together. ADORABLE! Also tonight, at bedtime prayers, Sophia said, "Stop Mom. I want to say my own prayer." Then she did the sign of the cross and said her usual prayer. It was sweet because it was the first time she did the sign of the cross all by herself.

Not Much Going On

Well, there doesn't seem to be much going on here this week. Jim is working the banker's shift this week (which I hate). He is supposed to get off of work at 4 everyday but it always ends up being 5 or 5:30 or 6. Yuk! Anyway, the kids and I have been holding down the fort while he has been at work. We tried to go the to zoo 3 times this week but thunderstorms around the zoo kept us at home.

Jim and I did have a date night this week. We started off looking at 3 houses with our realtor. I found the house I LOVE. Unfortunately I am not so sure it is the one that Jim likes. He likes the other house we looked at better. We'll see what happens. The third house was way to modern for us but looked great on the outside. It all really doesn't matter though because we have to sell our house first. We have had several people who supposedly want to buy the house but have to sell their house first too. Last week we had someone who really likes it and they have an offer on their house but it hasn't been accepted yet. I guess they are still trying to work things out. We will see what happens there.

Tomorrow I am taking the kids to the Fishers Farmer's Market again. There is a women there who makes gerbera daisy hair bows (I have to call them bows otherwise Sophia won't wear them. They are really clips). I put in an order for 4 "bows" in specific colors last week and I am going to pick them up tomorrow. I can't wait!

Sunday we are going to pick up Mom. She is staying with Beck this week to help prep for baptism. I just ordered a new skirt for baptism and I hope it works out.

To Change or Not to Change...

Here's a question. Let's say, hypothetically of course :), that you have two small children in the bathtub. One pees in the water at the beginning of the bath. The other one thinks its funny and pees in the water also. Do you:

1) bath them in the pee and say "oh well, pee is sterile"
2) change the water immediately
3) Decide that you will only change the water if there are floaters in the bathtub (and by floaters I mean poop).

I'll see if I can add this as a poll and see what people think.
