Did I mention Nanny David is going on a Mission?

I just realized that I hadn't posted that my youngest brother got his mission call. Well Nanny David as we call him (for some reason all the babies just love him and he is so patient with them) is going to Riverside California. Yes it's not foreign BUT he's going to the land of milk and honey if ya know what i mean. This kid has chased what ever girl he can get his hands on and none of 'em would return the gesture and now he is goin where there are hotties and he's got the "untouchable missionary" and surely he'll have them chasing him and the best part is.....HE CAN'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT! hahahahahahaha poor guy. God really does have a sick sense of humor! lol anyways he reports to the MTC Dec. 10. Way to go NANNY DAVE! I am so proud of the brother! Sean adores him and has since he was born. From the moment Sean met David he has been attached. David was the first person he recognized that wasn't me. Peas and Carrots they are! lol

Kristen's Givin The Birth!

For those of you who know or knew Kristen (Greer) Mecham she's gettin induced as we speak! Supposedly she's having a girl and her name will be Milo. Poor thing is 10 days late! That by far has got to be the worst. the end of pregnancy is hard enough and to have to deal with surpassing your due date has gotta be worse. It seems to me like once you pass the due date that your baby will never come and your stuck peeing every five minutes or when you cough or laugh or breath for the rest of your life! lol I got lucky busting The Sean out 3 weeks early. Although had i made to my due date they would have had to crack me like a walnut. He was 8lbs 7oz and with the world's largest head. they said he would've been 10lbs maybe more had i made it full term. Thank you Jesus for that kind and tender mercy! lol *side note...... Can you believe The Sean's gonna be 2?!?!

Anyways babies are great! I'm excited to see what Kristen and Johnny can make! They will be great parents. Also I'm excited for Lindsay and Todd next month! The whole birthing part isn't all that bad and once that baby comes it's the closest to god any human can get(unless your a prophet). I wanna say it's magical but i didn't realize it until like 3 hours later when i was all alone and after the shock that i had a kid started to settle....Everyday i just love that kid more each second! It tickles me pink to watch him grow and learn and fight and throw fits and tries new things! Awesomeness! YAY for babies and Families!

Something to think about....

We now live in a Nation that has lost ACOUNTABILITY and bordline A-Moral.
God Bless America....right

During this political season let's be reminded of these wise words.
"You cannot strengthen the weak
by weakening the strong.
You cannot help the small men
by tearing down the big men. You cannot help the poor
by destroying the rich.
You cannot lift the wage earner up
by pulling down the wage payer.
You cannot keep out of trouble
by spending more than your income.
You cannot further the brotherhood of man
by inciting class hatreds.
You cannot establish security
on barrowed money.
You cannot build character and courage
by taking away man's
initiative and independence.
You cannot help men permanently
by doing for them what they could and should do for themselves
."
---Abraham Lincoln---
