One Determined Kiddo

Savannah can be a very messy eater. One day after a particularly messy meal I put her in the bath tub with the water running and unplugged to give her a quick rinse before her nap. I turned around to get some soap to wash off her extremely sticky legs. When I turned back towards Savannah she had the tub stopper and was trying to force it upside down into the drain. She was determined to have time to play in the bath!

"Thankfuls!"

Someone once told me that silverware that wasn't used at a place setting were called thankfuls, because you didn't have to wash them. Such a small thing to be thankful for. Today I am thankful for:

• my testimony of Jesus Christ and the restored gospel
• a loving, supportive husband
• a beautiful, sweet daughter
• a helpful family that has helped us in more ways than they could possibly know
• awesome friends that keep me going
• teething tablets and Motrin
• space heaters
• hot chocolate
• Village Natural Therapy foaming bath oil
  

Lil' Miss Personality

Yesterday I went down to Dad's print shop to help them finish up a project they were working on. Savannah came with me and sat in her stroller for a while till she got tired of that. I was finally brave enough to let her run around the shop, which made me very nervous because I didn't want her to ruin anything!!! In the middle of the shop is a counter top with three open shelves under it. On the very bottom shelf there was a few boxes and a stack of paper. I of course had to move the paper because Savannah wouldn't leave it alone. When I moved the paper it created an empty "crawl space". Savannah kept herself entertained for about 30 minutes crawling through the space to the other side of the counter and back. She sat in the shelf giggling and then would crawl back out, proud of her discovery of a new "play place". I wish I had pictures of it, but I don't.
