Washington DC

March 11th- 18th I'm a little behind, so i'll try and do a good recap. Daylight saving started, and it suuuuuucks with kids. Benson was a total wreck. We got asked to give talks on the 25th. Me on Bridging the temple and the atonement. James, on making every Sunday Easter Sunday. The next day, the sister missionaries came over on Pday to use our internet for emailing because it was like 30 degrees outside and freaking cold. I fixed Sister Widdison's skirt because it had a really high slit. I love these sisters. I was making St Patty's day food, so I invited them to stay and eat dinner with us. I made cabbage and Corned Beef. It was pretty delish. Mops was Tuesday. I really enjoy our table. We had a table rotation between different groups educating us on swim safety, and health awareness, the cops came and gave us neat stuff. There was a table on fire safety. There was some pretty neat stuff. I submitted some pictures to Baby Faces Atlanta last weekend. They email...

The waiting week

Image
Monday we had Lisa Taylor (Recent convert of like a month) over for dinner and FHE with the sisters. It was really nice to get to know her better, and we just think the sisters are great. We had rip off Cafe Rio sweet pork salads and it was amazing. James did the lesson and he did the example of a hard boiled egg going into a glass bottle when it looks like it shouldnt fit. We didn't have any matches, so we had to use a paper towel, and it didn't work as well, but the point was still made. lol. I contacted Dr Page's office today as well. His PA Morgan told me that the order for my next biopsy had already been submitted and that i'd just have to wait for them to contact me. (a week later now, I STILL havent heard from scheduling. grrr.) I had his office send my images down to Dr Bagaria at the Mayo Clinic, so he'll probably be calling me sometime this week to set up a second opinion visit. James and I decided to go to Washington DC 3/16-3/18th with Kendra and B...

Biopsy Results

Image
This was a great week. Monday morning I called into the hospital to see if my biopsy results were back yet. Unfortunately they weren't. They said they weren't sure what it was yet, so they sent the tissue samples over to Emory to see what they thought. They said it would be another two days until we had some answers. *sigh* I hate all this waiting. It's driving me crazy! That night we did FHE, and just hung out together. Love that James and I are such good friends. On Tuesday, Hannah White came and picked me up, and we got free chicken sandwiches at Chic Fil A, then we went to the Collins Hill Library for story time. I love Hannah! She's such a great friend. We swung by Target on our way back to the apartment and she got some new shoes and a few other things. We got back and the kiddos played, and then James came home for lunch. The Hermanas called me and asked if I could go out with them later that night, so thats what I did. Same guy we taught two weeks ago. The...

The Biopsy and Benson updates

Image
Updates with Benson: He's 23 months and is such a little ham. He loves playing hide and go seek with dad and LOVES it when dad  comes home from work. Since we moved to the apartment, we're only about 5 minutes from James work, so dad gets to come home for lunch almost every day. I love that, and I know little buddy does too. He's also starting to jabber much more. He mimics noises all the time, and is really starting to develop a vocab. He LOVES reading books. Especially books with animals in them. It's so sweet. I love watching how he figures things out. It's so great :) A few months ago, we bought one of those potty seats that you sit on top of the regular toilet. He was TERRIFIED of it. Over the last few weeks he's been super interested in it, so we've had him sit on the potty and he actually goes pee!! Not sure i'm in the right stage of life to be potty training right now, but it's awesome. He also tells me when he's stinky, and most of ...
