Word + Craft: June 2009
http://wordandcraft.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
A little writing, a little knitting, then probably a little more writing again. Or maybe it's the other way around. Thursday, June 25, 2009. Ready, Set. Fizzle. I had good intentions. I made a list. And I even got off to a decent start, but then little by little, my summer just derailed. . I did get a couple of things done before my attention span was all used up. First of all,. I painted the dining room red. Would really work as promised. And that's where it ended. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my co...

The McBrides: November 2014
http://stanandjenny.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
Stan, Jenny, Miriam, Eliza and Dallin. Thursday, November 27, 2014. We had a delicious Thanksgiving dinner at Jody's house again this year. It was such a treat to have my sister, Sara, home from BYU for a few days. Afterwards, we decorated our gingerbread houses. Eliza probably ate more than she put on her house. Wednesday, November 26, 2014. It's time for the cute kid update. Here's some snippets from our day-to-day activities for the last little while. The beginning of footie season. Eliza has loved ha...

The McBrides: September 2014
http://stanandjenny.blogspot.com/2014_09_01_archive.html
Stan, Jenny, Miriam, Eliza and Dallin. Sunday, September 21, 2014. My sweet and sassy little girl turned three. Now that the girls are getting older, there have been tears this year at each of their birthdays from the one who wasn't getting the gifts. Ah, it's time for them to start learning some of the hard lessons of life. It's not always YOUR birthday. But even amidst the tears, they still managed to find a way to play nice together, for a little while. It was pretty awesome. I must admit, it did feel...

The McBrides: July 2014
http://stanandjenny.blogspot.com/2014_07_01_archive.html
Stan, Jenny, Miriam, Eliza and Dallin. Thursday, July 31, 2014. Another activity we did a lot during the summer when I was a kid was go to the local amusement park, Silver Dollar City (or as my dad fondly calls it "STEAL your dollar city). While it may not have as cool of attractions as Disney World (although it does have some really good roller coasters), it definitely has the best food, hands down. I was nervous taking a 5 month old baby, but he did really well. What a champ! Wednesday, July 30, 2014.

The McBrides: Swim Ranch
http://stanandjenny.blogspot.com/2015/07/swim-ranch.html
Stan, Jenny, Miriam, Eliza and Dallin. Friday, July 17, 2015. We did our second year at Swim Ranch this past week. This year Miriam was in Lane 1 with two teachers and three other girls. She improved so much during the course of the week. The second day they lined up the girls at the diving board and encouraged them to jump in. They all chickened out and said no. I was so nervous the next day as she walked out to the edge. And so proud when she took that step! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

The McBrides: June 2014
http://stanandjenny.blogspot.com/2014_06_01_archive.html
Stan, Jenny, Miriam, Eliza and Dallin. Monday, June 30, 2014. If I could pick one word to describe this 4 month old chubster, it would be HAPPY. All this little guy wants is someone to pay attention to him and he will reward you with one of his heart-melting smiles. I mean, who can't smile at that face? Who says boys can't wear bows? No wonder his sisters can't bear to leave him alone! Saturday, June 28, 2014. This has kept them busy for hours. Dress up never gets old with these two. Friday, June 27, 2014.

The McBrides: Trip to Utah - Lindon
http://stanandjenny.blogspot.com/2015/07/trip-to-utah-lindon.html
Stan, Jenny, Miriam, Eliza and Dallin. Monday, July 20, 2015. Trip to Utah - Lindon. We made our annual pilgrimage to Utah. The two-day trip went rather well, no major catastrophes and we were all mostly sane upon arrival. For the first part of the week we stayed with Nana and Papa. The girls enjoyed bedtime stories with Papa. While there we made a quick visit to my Grandma Stradling. We also visited with our friends, the Johnsons. Stan enjoyed a reunion with his two best friends, Kevin and Derek.

The McBrides: 4th of July
http://stanandjenny.blogspot.com/2015/07/4th-of-july.html
Stan, Jenny, Miriam, Eliza and Dallin. Saturday, July 4, 2015. Our 4th of July holiday was a little underwhelming this year. Miriam was in the middle of her 5-day fever virus so we were quarantined from the rest of civilization. A friend had given us a few small kid fireworks (no fire needed). Miriam barely scraped up enough energy to come outside and throw them. Oh well, at least Dallin liked eating them. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Trip to Utah - Orem. Trip to Utah - Lindon.

Word + Craft: Too Sweet for My Own Good
http://wordandcraft.blogspot.com/2010/11/too-sweet-for-my-own-good.html
A little writing, a little knitting, then probably a little more writing again. Or maybe it's the other way around. Monday, November 22, 2010. Too Sweet for My Own Good. The last time I was pregnant was almost thirteen years ago, so needless to say, this pregnancy has been a little different because I'm a lot older. I get tired more easily. I don't remember being so uncomfortable this early. And this time around I am dealing with gestational diabetes. I test my sugar four times each day, and whenever I d...
