While in town for a wedding, we got to visit some favorite people we have missed since moving away. We visited our old ward in Springville, and caught up with former roommates and mission companions. It was a treat to see everybody.</div>

Welcome, Camille, to the Heaton family! We got to travel to Utah a few weeks ago to witness Christopher and Camille's sealing in the Oquirrh Mountain Temple. It was gorgeous, and we had a wonderful time. They were too cute to watch, and I am so happy for them. </div>

Over the weekend, we got to go to Chattanooga, TN to meet somebody very important in our lives. It was AMAZING! Joshua and his cousins had a blast, even though he might look less than thrilled in some pictures...It was so much happiness that his smiles just couldn't keep up. <br />

We got to watch Thomas drive in and out of the station, and to ride the Blue Ridge Missionary Line. It was fun to ride the train, and go over bridges and through a long tunnel.

I hurried off to the grocery store last night with no kids to pick up a handful of things I had been needing. It was 9:45 pm as I strolled my buggy to my car, and started loading up. It was quite dark, not much light from the parking lot lamp was reaching me. I was trying to hurry, and looked up in time to see a man, bulky and a little older than me, walking towards me. Well, he was walking past my car, and then noticed that I was there, dropping bags of groceries into the back seat.<br />
"Let me take that for you, when you're done," I heard him say. Thank you so much! I had three more bags to get, and then I passed the buggy on to him. He took it and rolled it to the cart drop for me. As I was pulling out of the parking lot, I felt really grateful that there are nice gentlemen still out there. I appreciated it. It was late, and dark, and I was rushing to get home to my family. And I just thought that was the nicest thing. Thank you again.<br />

Easter is one of my favorite times of year. Trees and gardens are blossoming, The sun is shining, and the weather is mostly pleasant. And Easter is a time when I can reflect on the blessings I have in my life because of Jesus Christ. He was crucified, and suffered the Atonement for my sins. Then, on that first Easter morning, He was resurrected, conquering physical death. I know that He lives. I am thankful for the gift that He has given me, that I may live again as well. I love Easter because it reminds me of the very real miracle of the Atonement. Jesus Christ offers a way that I may be forgiven of my sins and mistakes so that I, too, can be found spotless before God. I also love that the meaning of the days is not as commercialized as one of my other favorite holidays centered around the Savior. What a blessing that we can reflect on the gift of Life when everything is awakening from a wintry slumber.<br />

We are Mormons. It's an occasion when we are blessed to hear from our Prophet, and the other inspired leaders of the church.

He is continuing to round out and is still a cuddly little boy. I've carried him a few times in the baby sling, and he is quite content to sleep against my front for a few hours at a time. He eats well, and is getting better about sleeping when I want to sleep. I'm generally getting up once to feed him during the night, although there are often exceptions to that. It may also help that Caleb likes to be very awake and alert until midnight, so our nights start later than I'd prefer.<div><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgHnoB24hHshRL6N4UCoVEJnYTaUiLB7YNUOQhhIWmM4X2acNQnKu4bnzxSIODme55-bAcw0c2potpuT_ZTR-IMTCALBgqzvZLqg6-rTHarKkClx5sDyU3lYYUyacM7HNul7p926bW7mDX1/s200/DSC_0613-3.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5664206350402209442" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 238); text-decoration: underline; float: right; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: 10px; cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 132px; " /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>Caleb is starting to smile at us more often when we interact with him.

Someday, I'll get enough sleep again...</div><div><br /></div><div>On a similar note, Joshua has been testing his sleeping boundaries, too. He's moved into his new room, and often elects to play with his toys rather than sleeping at nap time. Which is ok, he is still having quiet time. But while dinner is being prepared, it is always apparent that little Joshua still needs to have a nap. I am trying to brainstorm ways to achieve a nap from where we are now. I think if I were to put him into his crib or into a pack'n'play, he would climb out, and start climbing in other ways, too. But in the meantime, I have a growing collection of crazy positions I find Joshua in when he does happen to nap. Please enjoy, and give advice if you have any.</div><div><span class="Apple-style-span"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: underline; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); "><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgNjD627ifaCUFw3qsh4_ovhAbUxvuYyWX-cwbxaUBWfCNYOkl0-T33l80wyGuI_hkvHtqsFyED82X-iSA5SyC9i_s0gjjRQ_tpywGoLooo6_3tOUF7y_SI4OFFjymJ_CVKlGN4260kRsGz/s1600/DSC02752.JPG" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgNjD627ifaCUFw3qsh4_ovhAbUxvuYyWX-cwbxaUBWfCNYOkl0-T33l80wyGuI_hkvHtqsFyED82X-iSA5SyC9i_s0gjjRQ_tpywGoLooo6_3tOUF7y_SI4OFFjymJ_CVKlGN4260kRsGz/s320/DSC02752.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5657845194386077170" style="display: block;

Joshua's new job is to have gentle hands with baby, and to give his mom hugs. Emily's number one is to keep Joshua and Caleb filled with food during the day and to rest when all is quiet. <div><br /></div><div><br /></div></div>emulihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13510383375596361650noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7891288207933954682.post-9646640860671332262011-08-25T10:58:00.004-06:002011-08-25T11:22:20.878-06:00By popular demand:<div style="text-align: center;">

<br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">This summer, we've had a couple of great road trips. In June we went to Destin, FL area with all of the Heatons for the first Terry Heaton reunion. We loved being at the beach. Joshua enjoyed the sand and all the buckets and sand cars/trucks. It may be safe to say that Joshua took the very serious job of emptying the Gulf Coast one bucketful at a time, as he would fill a bucket, run 10 feet onto the sand and dump the water out. He would then return to the water to fill his bucket again. </div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 238); -webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: underline; "><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg6qjc7yu6ekz_ZBM78KkVifd3i7dkW0yESp81-nXm-OgrSj8Shb45OS4W5D2eYm9WcaAYdnCnzh1kfA_xmtJqPGHZPztkWY_HXUf6W7JMxTDFW34jUddcxwGWLJlpLs_aZeWhQBvo_arBk/s320/P6140105.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5628854659064077970" style="display: block; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: auto; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 240px; height: 320px; " /></span><div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span">

I woke up and had the entire kitchen and family room cleaned. It was a wonderful surprise and just what I needed. Benjamin knew just what I needed and would appreciate the most.<br /><br />Other news, Joshua is suddenly interested in looking at pictures of our family and cousins, and pointing to the paper, then to the person. It is very fun to watch him recognize us when we are not there. <br /><br />Pregnancy is starting to feel a little uncomfortable. I'm feeling like I'm leaning around something I'm holding on my lap. Joshua is noticing it's in his way when he sits with me. At times I think I need to grab Joshua's leg to pull him closer to the wall of his crib before I lean over and scoop him up. And the heartburn started last week. But there's still plenty of fun things to discover for the next few months as I continue to swell in different ways. But things are wonderful.<br /><br />Just 2.5 more weeks of school for this school year.
