So here is a few things I was gonna blog about, but I've just been too...emotional, busy, tired, emotional, sick and emotional.
I have a Scentsy warmer on my dresser. I always shut if off when I put Sara to bed since it is right next to her crib. I turned it on, I left, Granny put her to bed, didn't realize it was on.
Liquid wax all over Sara, bedding, wall and floor. Crying Baby, panicked Granny.
Sara's face was covered in wax.
Now my plug for Scentsy...She was scared but not harmed! The wax only gets slightly hotter than body temp. Warm, red face and a ticked off baby because she had wax stuck to her but no burns! Came off the walls really well too. I've yet to wash the bedding, does that tell you the state of my laundry room!
The warmer is no longer on my dresser if your wondering, not my brightest idea. But how great is that? No fire, no burns, I love Scentsy.

Yo, Whaz Up.
LL Cool Ryan takin a picture of himself.
I can not believe he is going to be done with Kindergarten and headed to the 1st grade!
He has just taken off with reading lately and I could not be more proud of him.
I'm re-learning all the 'rules' right along with him. Sad but true.
I really can't figure out what happened to that chubby little baby I used to have.
He was so irresistible, but then, this skinny little man is really irresistible too.
Mother's day flowers for Granny.
We made a Trifle on Mother's Day and Ryan put all the strawberries in a heart.
He was SO proud of it!
Have I mentioned Granny got a Bosch mixer and a grain mill? Well she did and lots of white wheat too. So, we are learning to make bread from scratch. Grind the wheat to flour all the way to bread in 2 hours. Wow, huh, 5 loaves of bread in 2 hours is worth it. I'm not sure we'll buy bread anymore, that Honey Wheat Bread is super good.
Jena loves her own bread pan and rolling pin. She comes up with some great creations.
Here is what's happening while we make bread. Teri and Matt have decided to do P90X. It is some way intense workout system that I should totally be doing with them, but I'm making some bread to add to...let's not talk about that. The fun thing has been that Jena and Ryan do the workout's with them. Mostly Ryan, Jena gets distracted. Ryan however is hardcore, he will stay the whole hour with them and do every exercise. He totally wants big guns (biceps). It's very entertaining to watch as you can see Sara likes to wander the family room and watch everyone and laugh at them.
I want you to notice the shoes on Teri's feet. Yup, their mine. See Teri is out of School for awhile. Oh, she got into Nursing School at the U of U! Yeah! First try too! Good Job Teri!
Anyway, so she's been around a lot. Which we love, really, Sara likes her better than me lately. But there is this thing that happens when sisters are together a lot. Things start disappearing. It's very strange. I get in my shower and what do you know...No Conditioner? I'm positive Barry didn't use it because if he had the empty bottle would still be there, no bottle at all. And then the running shoes, that's weird I used to have those very same running shoes. Hmm, maybe it's like the gray skirt I have in my closet. I love the gray skirt. I think I stole it when I was pregnant with Ryan and then she stole it back. I took it again a few years back and it's mine now. I hide it. I'm on the lookout for my stuff. I'm sure more will go missing soon.
Who does she think she is? Coming to my house, make me feel all guilty by exercising in front of me, make my kids like her more and then steal my stuff? Wow, I love my sister but I'm feeling a bit like I'm 15 and she's 18 again.
Hey Teri, I want my stuff back!
The first year Jena danced, Teri brought her some flowers. She was elated! Those flowers made her week. The next year, we didn't even think of it, but she did. Where are my flowers? Ummm, Ahhh, oops! Well we remembered this year. But they were $8 and this really cute statue was only $10. Statues last longer than flowers, I'm practical, what can I say? She loved the statue, she wanted to pose like the statue, it was great. But wait, Where's my flowers? Ummm, Ahhh, You'd rather have flowers? Really?
Note to self, just buy flowers!
The girl loves her cupcakes!
It made up for the flowers.
It's all good.
Just a cute picture of Sara today.
She has had a fever for 4 days now. It has finally gone down since her molar broke threw. She's still not feeling great though. All 3 of the others are very swollen also. I have a feeling those are going to have to break through before I get my happy baby back.
I can't believe she is 14 months!
It's funny how much more relaxed I am with her.
Ryan was saying 20+ words and running all over town at her age. She still toddles and only says 3-4 sort-of-words.
Jena was long done with the bottle and almost with the Binky.
I haven't even attempted to rid her of either of these things.
She sleeps 10-12 hours a night!
There is nothing more beautiful than a sleeping baby.
She has me wrapped around ever finger too.
I can't get enough of her!

Jena had her Spring Recital today.
She did a great job!
She loves to get her hair done, put makeup on, dress up and be apart of all the girls and craziness that goes on at a Dance Recital. I think they call them Performances now. They called them Recital's when I was young. I better get with it, I wouldn't want to embarrass her. In fact, when I took her back stage I told her when she got up on stage to dance I would yell 'Go Jena!' She looked at me very seriously and said 'Mom, Please Don't.' Oh, you don't want me too? Ok, I won't. She loved that last year, not this year though, keep up mom!

You have been way busy! Glad to hear that Sara was not hurt. The bread sounds yummy! I talked to Dana today at church. She wants to get together for lunch. I totally want to as well. When works for you?
...just for the record...
i realized i'd left your conditioner in the downstairs shower about 10 min after i left. i called and asked for you to be told where it was and that i was sorry. guess you didn't get the message.
regarding the shoes...i've only forgotten my shoes one day. i borrowed yours for 1.5 hours and put them back. i didn't take them home for heavens sake!
regarding the skirt... what does it say about me that you stole MY skirt when YOU were prego... and it fit you. wow! that was harsh. needless to say, you still have MY skirt.
regarding sara liking me more than you lately... i'm just as dumfounded as you to be honest, but i'm certainly taking full advantage of it since i'm sure it won't last very long.
and honey...a girl always wants flowers! especially a girly girl like jenaka. heaven knows where she got the girliness from, but she certainly got it.
SO glad she was not hurt!
I love my warmer!!!
for the record, the grey skirt is very, very stretchy. Hence the comfyness while pregnant. (I know that is not really a word.) But just the same it keeps its shape and stays quite small so that it still fits Teri. Not that it matter's, because I have no intentions of giving it back. :)
