When a dog loves a baby

I just ran to the store to get Jeff some Tums, and when I got back there were poopy diapers shredded all over the floor, and we were missing an entire loaf of bread. Is anybody else's dog this awful or is it just mine?

Sorry for the blogging dry spell I've had. I've been packing and getting ready to move, so naturally, I have nothing nice to say. I do have some news since the last time that I posted. Wanna hear it? Does anyone even read this blog? I keep seeing regular people with like 1,000 followers. How does this happen? I need to find out.

Ok so first item of business. My sister and her family moved to Oregon. Ryan got to transfer from where he has been working for the Red Cross here to their Salem, OR location. Apparently he blew all the other applicants out of the water. He's awesome. I'm excited for them. But sad for me. Natalie started Kindergarten, and I wish I could see her walking to school with her little backpack on. I hope Sarah takes some pictures for us. They'll  be closer to our Grandma and Grandpa which makes me happy too. They'll love being able to see each other all the time.

We're moving to Grantsville at the end of the week. Where is Grantsville? It's a town right next to Tooele, about a half an hour west of Salt Lake City. We bought a house built by Kessler Hatch aka Jeff's brother. He builds a mean house. And by mean I mean nice. We'll finally have our own yard for Sadie's pooping pleasure, and more space, so that will be nice. Our house has finally gotten to the level of mess where you can't clean, you just have to move. I love organizing and decorating, so I'm actually really really excited.

Grace is moving around so much now. She still isn't crawling forward, but she goes backward, sideways, and in a circle. I just had to buy her a playpen, because in the past few days she has fallen off our bed, bumped her head on lots of walls, and had all her toys taken away by Sadie. She has a rough life. I can already tell how stubborn she's going to be. If she sees something she wants she will stop at nothing to get it. Right now, in her playpen, she has my car keys, a plastic cup, and a paper plate. All things she could not bare to live without.  

We've all been sick all weekend, so conference couldn't have come at a better time. I love listening to the talks, and having that feeling of wanting to be better. I'm so happy to be a member of the LDS church.This was one of my favorite talks. Now I'm going to go blow my nose twenty times.

And as always, for your looking pleasure...

How exciting for you!! Glad you're getting your own place, wish it was a little closer though. Maddie totally needs a play mate since being pregnant she's been pretty neglected. Anyways, good luck with the move.
