Bragging Again...

...about my husband! Last week he did a tv spot on Good Things Utah. Click here to see the video. I keep telling everyone about the meatloaf and that is what he made on the show. I talked to Ann this weekend and she made it for dinner. She said it was incredible! It is. Then today he was on 101.9 The End on the Chunga show. I listen this station every morning! Then he was on the local Fox news station here and two more radio programs this afternoon. Good job my love and keep up the good/hard work!

Look who is standing up....

That's right! Zachary is sorta standing. I've said it before...Joe is convinced that this kid is going to walk before he crawls...and he just might. Zachary does not really like to be on his belly very long. It is either sitting playing with his toys or standing with the help of myself or Joe. Today I was daring and let go and he just stood there. (That's right...it is a Suduko book. I'm a closet Suduko maniac). He was so proud of himself for just standing there. Then he would get excited and start to flap his arms and fall on his bum. What a cutie!
Here he is! Cute as can be! Love the smile! Love the eyes! Love him!

He has also taken a liking to my magazines. Nothing like a little Real Simple on a snowy afternoon. Can you see his hair? He is finally getting some. I thought I would have a bald baby forever.
At times I find him trying to lick the pages....or the people....yuck! too young for that!
So due to the blizzard like conditions this afternoon we spent it inside flinging things off of the coffee table and tearing apart pages in the magazine. You know...good quality time!
We are off to California in one week. And after today's weather I am definitely ready for some California sunshine. Zachary and I are splitting the time between my family and Joe's family so if we don't get to see you this trip we'll see ya next time around. But in the meantime, keep coming back to get the updates on the world of Zachary...and his parents too. =)

We Move On...



The announcement came today that Thomas S. Monson was named as the 16th President of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. I really wanted to watch the announcement on TV but had a doctor's appointment and missed it. I scanned the radio until I heard the news shortly after it was announced. I knew in my heart at that moment that this was how it was supposed to be. Although, the past week has been one of mourning with the passing of Gordon B. Hinckley...I am excited to know that things are continuing as they should. Henry B. Eyring was named as 1st Counselor and Dieter F. Uchtdorf was named as 2nd Counselor. President Monson has always been someone that I have held a great opinion of. His has such an enormous heart and I am proud to say that I sustain all three of these men in their new callings. I have felt the Spirit testify to me that these are the right men for the job. These are men chosen of God to lead and guide this Church in these latter-days.

I was reading my sister-in-law's blog this evening and read her post regarding The Hinckley Challenge. I think that this is a great idea to read the Book of Mormon in 97 days. I'm on board!
