Little Homemaker

I gave Elly the go ahead to make Chocolate Chip Cookies all by herself....and she DID! She LOVED it. I would say I'm not sure that was a good thing because since then she has asked to make them everyday.

Beckam's First Fingerpainting

This is the text I get from Greg while at the funeral when everyone is saying how lucky I was to be without the kids.

Step 1: Remove diaper
Step 2: Poo in crib
Step 3: Quietly finger paint everywhere you can reach.
Step 4: Wait for Dad to come in and find you
Step 5: Jump up and down with excitement when dad shows up.

Oh, it's so gross, just looking at makes my face curl up because it stinks.
Greg had to bathe him twice to get it off, it was dried on him and when I got home he was cleaning it off of the crib. STINKY!!!!!!!!!!!

Funeral

Spent the day with Grandpa Lewis. His sweet wife has passed and has meet up with her eternal companion. Grandpa was having a tough day. I'm not really sure what was going on in his mind, he's a pretty quiet guy. He feared to participate in giving the prayer for he didn't want to get emotional. When he said that, it made me cry.
Isabella was a sweet lady. They had been married for 20 years they both met up when they had lost their eternal companions pretty close together. They dated and soon got married in the Hawaii temple for time. They both enjoyed traveling together on cruises they even went to New York. They also spent a lot of time serving in the temple together. Gonna miss her and I hope Grandpa keeps going...for my selfish reasons. I love to have him here.
