Learning to be a Mom

The friends we are staying with have a 7 month old baby boy named Jude. To help them out (and make our rent dirt cheap) I am watching Jude while both Jen and Robert are at work. Last week I watched Jude from 7 am to 4:30 or 5:30 pm depending on who got home first. This week I still technically start watching Jude at 7 am but luckily he is now getting up closer to 8 am. Jen hasn't had to go to Bountiful for training so she has been getting home between 3:30 and 4 pm. Watching Jude is a great opportunity to learn to be a mom. And no I'm not pregnant. And watching Jude has taught me I'm not quit ready for kids of my own. Mom's are amazing people. I don't know how they do this every day all day. I'm always watching the clock waiting for Jen or Robert to get home and then I can't wait for the weekend when I don't have to get up or worry about watching Jude at all. I am learning how to be a mom and it is tough work.

New Sheets


Yesterday Harrison and I went to Bed Bath and Beyond to buy our bedding. We have been staying with some friends and using their bed and bedding. Recently we decided to live with them so I thought we should get our own bedding to put on the bed. Now I'm not so sure it was a good idea. The sheets and pillows we got are so soft and comfortable that we completely slept in this morning. I was thinking that it was between 6 and 7 because my body likes to wake me up at that time. Nope! It is almost 10 and Harrison needed to leave at 9. I hope we get used to this awesome bedding quickly so we don't keep sleeping in. :D

Inspiration

A couple weeks ago I had a Sister that I served with invite me to read her blog. Reading her blog has inspired me to start writing in my blog. Thank you Danielle for inspiring me to again share my adventures in my little world.
