Patience Momma-my new motto

Ahhhhh, we just got all the kids to bed (and asleep) before 9:30. Everybody but Hayden that is. He has been so overly tired, and a bit naughty the last couple of days. This kids will sleep in until 9-10 if he stays up late, and we have been much too busy for sleeping in. Poor kid is not getting enough sleep. He was in time-out 2x today in the Tabernacle (on Temple Square). I had some old lady say to me "patience Momma, patience" when I "ever so gently" grabbed his arm to put him into time-out...the second time...in like 10 minutes. I just didn't even look at her, I think I would have said something ugly to her if I did. Good grief.



We have been having so much fun here in good old Utah. Last night we got to go over to the Taylor's for dinner. Jane and Todd used to be our fun neighbors, until they moved out here to Utah. Hunter and Chase were the best of friends, and used to run around with capes and swords. We were always having game-night and eating way to much junk food. Ohhh, good times! But it was so fun to see them. They are getting ready to move, although I told Jane I didn't see how she could leave her beautiful house. I told Scott to hurry up and get a job out here so I could buy it!

Anyway, tomorrow is a busy and early day. We are going up to Timpanogus (I think that's how you spell it??) Cave and I (I mean we) need to have 4 kids ready before 6:45. Scott asked "where is my vacation?" hehe.

You guys are tough, that timp trail get's pretty long. Of course I am wimpy, but it's still very pretty up there. It sounds like you guys are having a great time!

I love visiting with old friends. How fun. And not a big fan of people not minding their own business. Also, way to go on the Timp trail, I heard that was pretty hardcore! I hope you're having a great time on your trip :)

The funny part about that isn't what the lady said.. it was where she said it! Sounds like y'all are doing a lot of fun things up here!

Maren said...

Its easy for HER to say "Patience Momma"... they're not her kids!
