Is it Already the Middle of February?

Actually, I'm kinda thinking "Is it ONLY the middle of February?"

Here's our family after R's blessing

The month started on a wonderful note...R was blessed by her dad. He did such an awesome job and gave an absolutely beautiful blessing. We were lucky enough to have a ton of family there. After sacrament meeting we (all of my family) went back to our house for about an hour until we left to go to Buckeye for Emmalin's blessing. Her dad also gave a great blessing. Then it was lunch at the Clarks after their sacrament meeting was over.

The next day I had my 6 week check-up and was declared "normal"...whatever that means!

Saturday Kristi went through the temple for her endowment. It was so wonderful to be in the temple. Kristi took to it swimmingly. She and Mike are so happy together. They make a great couple. Tomorrow is the big day...can't wait.

I have been given a calling in our new ward. I'm teaching the 2nd Sunday in R.S. I'm really looking forward to this calling. I enjoy teaching. I just hope everyone else enjoys me teaching. I was so relieved to get this calling because I honestly thought they were going to call me to nursery and let me take M a few months early.

Earlier this week I helped out in H's kindergarten class. I became very proficient at using the copier, but I also got to help with small reading groups. On Tuesday I stayed and ate lunch with her. It was kind of funny because as we were walking into the cafeteria she pointed to one side of tables and told me I had to sit over there. I asked where she was sitting and she pointed to the other side of the cafeteria. I asked if I could sit by her and she said no because she was sitting by her friends. I was able to convince her to let me sit across the table from her. She's in kindergarten and already embarrassed by her mom!

This morning I went to the dentist because I've been having some pretty bad pain in my mouth since Monday. Turns out I have an impacted wisdom tooth which is surprising because when I was younger my then dentist told me my wisdom teeth were so far down they'd never come up. This new dentist told me (and showed me) that one of my wisdom teeth has already come in, one is impacted, one is just sitting there in my gums and one is completely missing. March 9th is the big day. And, as if that weren't enough, it's taken me 33 years but I have finally gotten a cavity. My perfect record is ruined.

Today I was sitting in the drive thru at the pharmacy and I started to wonder what they must think of me. In the last two months I have filled scripts for 800mg Ibuprofen, percocet and vicadin. I wish I could say the vicadin worked. Not only am I sleepy, nauseous and jittery, but it doesn't take the pain away. What's the point?

And finally, at the risk of jinxing us, I think K might be potty trained. He even appears to be night time trained as well. It is wonderful. Seriously, I can't even tell you how happy I am about this. I can hear the choirs of angels singing.
