Crazy Love


I just ordered my book for a book club that I'm going to be following. It is kicking off on September 13th. I'm excited cause it is through the blog of the wife of Selah... one of my favorite music groups. The book is called "Crazy Love". I was able to get the book for just $6.99. Her blog is found by clicking here.

nuggy from last nights worship conference

Little nugget from the worship conference last night.

31 For He stands at the right hand of the needy one,
to save his life from those who condemn him. Psalm 109:31

That puts Jesus at my right hand.

1 The LORD says to my Lord:
"Sit at my right hand
until I make your enemies
a footstool for your feet." Psalm 110:1

The Father says to Jesus sit at my right hand.

If Jesus is at the right hand of the Father and I'm at the right hand of Jesus... that puts me in between then right?
How cool is that?

That is where I want to spend my day.

Thanks Gramma Donna


....note the face she make as she puts her baby up to burp...I hope that isn't what I look like?

Miss D's Criagslist find.






Well actually I found it...
We were talking last night over pizza that we need to get a bike for Miss D. At our previous house there wasn't anywhere for her to ride. If you had been to that house you would understand why. We could have sent her down the hill and said "have a good one" but we didn't and I'm sure someday she will thank us. I guess we could have got her one and sent her next door to ride circles around their house (they paved with sidewalks around their house for their kids to ride... but we didn't. I guess we are lame). So she is a little delayed in learning how to pedal. I hit Craigslist last night and typed in "girl bike" and what did I find??? See above. And do you see that it has a seat for her BABY! Does it get any better? She doesn't think so. Also it came with a helmet. Something I didn't even think of. I wonder how we all survived growing up without one? Yeah Right. SO I put Baby D down for bed and we headed outside to teach our girl how to ride. We discovered that we have never said "pedal" so many times in our life before yesterday. Also Mr. D kept getting frustrated with her because she couldn't get her left foot to continue with the circle it needed to make....as did I. So frustrating. She kept using the brake and stopping.
Half a pedal
Break
Stop
Half a pedal
Break
Stop
Push to get going
Pedal
Pedal
Break
Stop
Repeat
Annoying! Come On girl what are you 3 or something?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I also had to throw in a picture of Baby D's legs... Do they get any yummier? And that smile Deelish!

My night last night and my morning.....


Put Baby D to bed at 8ish...
Stayed up way to late with Mr. D.
Woke Baby D up to feed him at 11:30pm.
Put Baby D back to bed.
Woke up at 6:30am.
WHAT!!!???
I woke up and looked at the clock...rubbed my eyes thinking I had not read it right but there was daylight to confirm what I saw.
Got up to a grunting Baby D (this little guy would rather grunt then cry).
Fed Baby D and he wanted to sleep more.
WHAT!!!???
Put Baby D back to bed and Got Miss D snuggled back in bed with us.
Woke up again at 9:30am!
WHAT!!!!

Morning "Walk".





We attempted a morning walk today.
What we learned on our morning walk.

~Go Earlier... if I don't want to hear Miss D complain the whole time how hot she is.
~Attempt less distance...so Miss D can build up her stamina for walking in the heat. (we did only make it about 4 houses before turning around)
~Take Baby D when he isn't that close to wanting to sleep cause he started to cry about half way during the walk.
~Take Baby D with just a diaper on.
~Take an extra blanket to cover where the sun gets in through the stroller.
~Make Miss D wear Flip Flops so her feet don't get sweaty.

Hmmm.... I should just take a walk without them. That would be a whole heck of alot easier.
But where is the fun in that??
