Falling Asleep

I can't think of anything that is much more beautiful then a sleeping baby.  So peaceful, so content.  Right now, this little guy is having a hard time with the ups and downs of life.  Lots of crying going on around our parts.  Soooooo not wanting to do what he doesn't want to do.   We are trying to work with him, lots of patience and love required in this parenting gig.  (Not to mention lack of sleep.....)  But, there are those sweet moments through the day that make it all worth it.  Hearing this little boy say I love you.  Sweet kisses throughout the day.  Remembering to say thank you without a reminder.  And, of course, watching him peacefully sleep.  He does so well when he gets a good nights rest and a good nap during the day.  Rest, patience, love, kind words, just some of the simple joys of this life.         

 

The Apple Farm

This is becoming an annual event at our place!  We love going to the apple farm.  Its close to our home and is pretty cheap for our whole family to go.  We jumped in the big apple, had our faces painted, went on a wagon ride through the orchard, and bought a bunch of Honeycrisp apples!!  We went a couple weeks ago between General Conference Sessions.
