This is my goal for the year. To be present, where ever I am. This means not just physically being there. I am trying to put my phone down, turn the TV off, walk away from the computer, all that stuff, and focus on where I am, who I'm with, and what I'm doing. This image was the home screen on my phone, so anytime I would pick up my phone I had a friendly reminder to be present. I am by no means even close to perfecting it, but it really has made a difference.
This day the cashier at the grocery store gave Paige a sucker without me realizing, but look how happy she is! How could you take it away?
Same day at the grocery store. They both had a blast, and we all survived and even enjoyed doing the shopping. I normally go by myself, but it was actually really fun to have them this day. I also can't get over how grown up Miss Hallie Mae looks in the picture.
"SO big!" She doesn't really do this trick anymore, so it's fun to see it when it was new and oh so exciting to her.
From time to time we drive down to the post office, and get out and look at the progress of the City Center Temple. They had recently poured the concrete foundation. It is so crazy to see the whole building up on stilts so high off the ground.
Our little leprechans on St. Patrick's Day.
I LOVE this picture. They both sat up on the exam table at the doctor's office and played in the mirror until the doctor came in. So, so cute to watch them interact.
Brushing teeth for the first time! She sure does love her toothbrush.
