the time has come....
PICKLES GOES TO NURSERY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
if there was ever a little mama who needed to be in nursery, it was/is this one. i'll have to find some way to replace my usual "sunday calorie-burn", and maybe after a few weeks of actually listening to sunday school lessons i might miss our hallway-gym-foyer-gym-foyer-hallway-clerk's-office-make-a-break-for-the-sacrament-table relay races, but, for now, i celebrate.
i tried to get a picture of piper for her "1st day of nursery" scrapbook page, but...she wasn't cooperating. at all. she would not stay in one spot. or even really look my way. even though i did some extraordinary dog "barking" in an attempt to gain her interest.
i actually wish i had a video of me following my daughter around in my church clothes looking through a camera and barking at the top of my lungs. while she pretended not to notice. cause it would be some good bob saget material.
but since church was starting in 5 minutes, and we live 15 minutes from the builiding, i gave up and made levi "hold" her on the piano bench. notice the tight grip around her fist. and her left leg already making the move. and her "outta here" facial expression. that's the best i could get in the 2 seconds it took to move away from the bench and squat down. so....there you have it pickles. hope you like your scrapbook.
thanks susan -- you sent this on a day when i REALLY needed it :) sure miss you guys -- especially on this friday -- not the same without you....xoxo, candice
