Sunday Mornings!

Sunday mornings at our house are really crazy! At least 2 showers and it could be more if we didn't have the time to get the kids in the bath Saturday night. Things get even crazer when I have to teach young women, or if Kris is teaching Elders Quorum. Our Young women and Elders Quorum are first and then Sacrament meeting is last, and we start at 9:00am. We never change time because we share the ward with one other ward which is the singles ward which start at 1:00. So to get out the door and have everyone fed, dressed and lessons set up and prepared sometimes is CRAZY! Well this last Sunday to throw another kink into our Sunday morning schedule the Stake Presidency had a meeting for all of the priesthood holders ages 12-up for the whole stake. They started their meeting at 7:45 so that they would be home at 8:45... that's the time we should be leaving to have everything ready for my lesson at 9! Needless to say it was crazy and I was expecting a crazy, mean, and ornery Lindsay to make her appearance, but I was actually calm, cool, and collected. I had the girls bathed dressed and ready to walk out the door, mostly by the time Kris got home. He did sneak out a bit early to help his desperate house wife:) Anyway I was just finishing brushing my teeth when I came out and found Stella like this...
Do you love her bow... Ya Kris had put it on. Then he put her in her chair while he finished getting Molly's skirt on. These skirts are so big that this is what happened. She can't move her arms or any part of her body. It was so funny and her face was just so precious. No crying just hanging out!
How sweet is this face! Oh I just love this little baby!
We were out of the house on time and to church early enough to get the lesson and class room set up and ready! I'm so grateful for my husband. He is such a faithful man and who attends the meeting that our stake presidency feels strongly about, and also be home to help his wife get things ready and to church on time. I am also grateful that I had prepared the night before by setting out clothes I didn't have to search for socks, shoes etc. and I had also got the diaper bag packed and ready the night before everything out and ready to walk out the door. It made the morning run much more smoothly than had I not done all of the preparation.
