Sunday 28th, Aaron and I were released from our Primary calling. We taught the CTR 5C class for 2 years. Basically since we have been married. We had some good times teaching that class. Some of my favorite memories are: Carson wanting to answer Dalton's question for a piece of candy and him getting so frustrated that he almost pucked, Aaron almost killing Dalton for karate-chopping him in the throat, Richie playing Simon says and being a "Bee". Buzz Buzz Buzz Sting!, Aaron and Carson playing Wolverine and having to have his "claws" taken away or the time that the class was so out of control that all we could do was sit there and laugh. Well at least I did.
Those were fun times. However, I am ready for a change and would like to know the ladies of the ward a little better. So when we got released I was hoping that I would be called into the RS. However, the bishop had different plans. I was called to be the Primary Chorister for both Junior and Senior Primary. Aaron was called as First Counselor to the Young Men. I was a little disappointed but figured that is where I am supposed to be right now. I think Aaron is a little nervous but excited to be doing something new and something with the young men. He will be really good at it. I'm excited for him!
Monday 29th: Was our 2nd wedding anniversary. Aaron surprised me by taking Jade and I up to Park City for the evening. We went to Baja Cantina, our favorite Mexican restaurant and walked around downtown until Jade fell asleep in the stroller. Aaron then took us to our hotel room were we spent the night. It was fun to just get away even if it was for one night. The room ended up being so small that Jade slept in the bathtub. We placed lots of blankets in the bottom and she fell right to sleep. That way we could also shut the door and not hear her make every little noise.
While we were getting Jade ready for bed, we took some fun shots of her on her tummy. She moves her legs a lot lately while on her tummy and she kept sticking her butt up in the air. I just had to taken a dozen pictures. It was too cute to pass up!
Tuesday 30th: Roanne invited the daughter-in-laws and children out to lunch at the country club they are members of. I accidently forgot about the lunch date and didn't remember until about 20 minutes before I was supposed to meet them. Unfortunately with getting Jade and myself ready to go, I was super late. We decided that I would just meet them at the country club and they would get started without me. In my rush to get there, I didn't see the motorcycle cop pulled over scanning people. Of course I was going 55 in a 35 and got pulled over. I did end of getting a ticket but luckily he only wrote it for 5mph over the speed limit. Aaron says that I should throw out the fact that I am a RN at JVH but this was a Sandy cop and I figured he would be partial to Alta View Hospital, so I didn't say anything. I should have though. Maybe it would have saved me a ticket and traffic school.
Needless to say, I didn't enjoy lunch as much after that. Jade did really well though, at least in comparison to Tylar Sorensen who cried the entire time. For the most part Jade is a very good natured baby and rarely cries. I think I credit the fact that she is on a good schedule. Way to go Babywise!
Friday October 3rd: Jade is not feeling very good today. She has had a runny nose off and on for the past two weeks but nothing to be concerned about,. However today she seems really congested. She has a hard time eating she's so congested. That only makes her ornry. Of course she has to be ornry for picture day. Grandma Bills has been insistent that we get a Four Generation picture taken before the end of summer. So with the leaves changing colors, we decided to go up to the canyon and have Dad take some digital pictures. We went up Provo Canyon at Vivian Park and were able to get some cute pictures. However Jade doesn't like to cooperate. She was either too busy looking at people passing by, or the water or putting her hands in her mouth. Then if it wasn't Jade, it was one of us out of place. So it was difficult ot get a really good shot of all 4 of us. Maybe we will have to try again when Jade is older.
Saturday 4th: Today was the Saturday session of Conference. I think I appreciate conference more and more the older I get. It was the first conference with President Thomas S. Monson as prophet. It has been a hard adjustment not having President Hinckley as the prophet and I have prayed and fasted multiple times to have a personal witness that President Monson is supposed to be our prophet now and I think I recieved that confirmation today while watching conference. It wasn't anything big, just a peaceful feeling when he spoke that he was in the right position. It was a good feeling and one that I hope grows as I listen to him speak more as the prophet. Tonight all the ladies went out to dinner during Priesthood session. We ended up at Jason's Deli for salad bars. Jade was super cute and of course the center of attention but because Jade is so congested she also became ornry super fast. So after dinner, instead of going shopping or to a movie, like we have in the past, Jade and I just went home and I put Jade down to bed early. I think she needed it because she went right down. Poor thing. I hope this is nothing more than her teething and not something else like an ear infection.
Here are a few pictures of Jade while at Jason's Deli.
