My girl sure does enjoy singing. I can't say that I'm disappointed about this, quite the opposite actually! Lila loves to go around making up her own songs about anything and everything (but usually princesses and fairies). She reminds me of myself and my sisters when we were little girls :) Me and the kiddos had a quiet week at Darren's parents house, just spending our days playing pretend and jumping on the old trampoline. I planned and made meals, which I hope will help me transition back to reality next week! It was actually kind of nice to get back to cooking, and I'm excited to bust out my favorite fall recipes when we're home.
Besides playing with the kids while grandma and grandpa worked this week, we all traveled to Colorado for the weekend to visit Darren's grandparents. It sure was sweet to introduce our little chunk to Great-grandfather and Grandma June. Our angel baby even cut another tooth while we were there, but he just took it all in stride and didn't fuss about it. I feel like a very blessed mommy to have such a sweet tempered babe :)
The best part of my week happened 2 hours ago when Darren finally made it back to us! I felt like we did pretty well while he was gone, but I still hope we don't have to be apart for that length of time again! Of course we wouldn't have done quite so well without him had we not had the help of our wonderful family members. My mother-in-law helped out with the kids so much every night that I've been in Utah (tonight included). I feel very blessed to have such good people in my life to help care for me and my family.
There was one more thing to add to the great blessings of the week, and that was General Conference. I definitely have some talks that I didn't really catch (tending to babies has that effect), but what I did catch was incredible. I'm looking forward to watching and listening and being inspired even more over the coming days and weeks. I hope the same for all of you!
P.S. We were also blessed with 2 new nephews last week! Congrats to my sister and brother and their families!
