What's been going on in our neck of the woods? Not really a whole lot! Although the "not a whole lot" is keeping me busy enough that I'm finding it hard to have enough time to take a deep breath. I've been working about 5 hours a day, and although I'm home all day It's been hard to squeeze keeping my house in order by doing so. I've been reading an incredible book called "He Did Deliver Me From Bondage", I recommend it to anyone and everyone, although the spiritual work is VERY hard and grueling I have come to understand my savior and the atonement on a deeper level than ever before in my life. It's a book about ridding your life of addictions and compulsive behaviors, it uses the 12 step process that AA uses only with using the Book of Mormon. I'm starting step 5 with a small group of amazing women and I have to say step 4 was the HARDEST step I had to take in this process, I didn't quite finish step 4, but since the group is moving on, I'm moving along with them and when we are done as a group, I'm planning on re-reading the book and doing the steps over again at my own pace. It's a book that I know I will read MANY times over in my lifetime.

Ian is working hard trying to earn his Bear badge. Here's a picture of Ian making "Monkey Munch" one saturday for a yummy treat and to also help him pass off a Bear requirement. His school recently had an egg drop. He has a fool proof method for dropping an egg without it breaking:

and Morgan is just BUSY and growing so darn fast. I caught her this morning actually sitting, not jumping on the couch and reading her book. Yesterday when Jeff and I were both reading she hurried and grabbed her book and started reading too.

Here she is crawling all over her daddy and giving him loves

This was the first time I tried to put ponies on the sides, it was really cute for all of 5 minutes, but it's still not quite long enough in the back to hold for very long!
