Catch up...

So when I said WEEKLY blog, I really did mean it.  I have the best intentions, it just seems the follow through is sloppy.  So here's to catching up and hopefully staying on top of it.

Kaya is now smiling and cooing.  James loves to have "conversations" with her.  He says something, she gurgles and coos, he responds.  It's adorable.  I love to think about all the possible things she could have said to him if she could use words.  Sometimes their conversations, as they occur in my head, are pretty hilarious.  Kaya is growing super fast.  She about out of three month clothes and has been in size 2 diapers for a while now.  Fat and happy, we like to think.  She's such a good baby.  Granted, we don't have anything different to compare it to, but she's perfect for us.  We love her more and more every day.  Every single second of every minute of every day.  It amazes us how much we love her.  It basically overwhelms us, but it's our favorite thing. :)

James went to Scout Camp with the Young Men to Zion National Park.  They got to hike the narrows and Zion subway.  They had a great time.  James spoke in Sacrament meeting today and shared some of what he learned.  He talked about how this little stream had cut deep trenches in the rock.  No one single event could cause such beauty.  Instead, it was this little stream, through persistence and perseverance.  James compared it to the Atonement.  We shouldn't see the Atonement as just a one time event.  Instead, we should use it persistently in our lives.  We need to use the Atonement daily to help us persevere.  He did an awesome job.

I've just been adjusting to life as a mom.  It's different not being in school and so I've been trying to figure out how to feel my time.  Kaya and I have fun playing and wearing matching outfits and cleaning the house and doing the laundry and running errands and doing Primary stuffs and such.  We have a really good life.  We love it.  It's simple, but it's ours.  And it's the BEST!
