So with a New Year brings new church manuals, a new time to go to our sabbath day meetings (which I really dislike by the way, 1:00 church does not work well with little ones), and new classes to attend. I now have a Sunbeam and a nursery goer. It was a rough Sunday for mommy, but the kids did great! Brynlee was so excited to go to Primary with all the "big kids". She was one of the first ones there so she got first dibs on chairs and of course she picked the one with the "sunbeams" cover on it. She couldn't have been happier and waved goodbye with a huge smile on her face. And that's when the waterworks started. Yes, I am pathetic (darn those emotions!). Seeing her sitting there all grown up just got to me. And to make matters worse we passed a member of the bishopric while I was trying to get my emotions under control and of course had to try to explain myself. Then half way through class Lance went to check on Boston in Nursery and this same member of the bishopric walked passed giving him an inquisitive look as to why Lance was peeking in the nursery window. So Lance told him that it was a big day for us because it was Brynlee's first week in Primary and Boston's first day in nursery. And then that member of the bishopric just happend to be conducting that Sunday and mentioned my little drama to the whole world. He didn't mention my name but anyone who looked my way would have known he was talking about me because of how red I was. Anyway the kids did great and I can't believe how old they are getting! Time really does fly.
My little Sunbeam!
And my 18 month old ready for church

I can't believe how fast time flies by! I still remember when you were pregnant with Brynlee! I guess its time for another one now that your kids are moving up, right???!!! Did you ever get our Christmas Card. I think I sent it to your first address in Evanston. I hope so. BTW yours was so cute! Take care!
Kylee- I don't know if this will make you feel any better-- but I am the same way!! Just love those cute kids!! Great posts-- fun to see.
Wow, you had a double-dose of anxiety that day too huh? I think yours was scarier than mine, and I don't have quite the waterworks problem that you have. I'm glad they made it through...you will too. :)
Love Boston's mohawk and Brynlee seriously is a little princess! I know, I wish we could've met up with you guys at Christmas. But you know how crazy it gets trying to do the family thing. And Penny and Kelly are moving to Oregon! We'll be back "West" in June--yay!
They just made me the sunbeam teacher in my ward and I bet Brynlee would make the best little sunbeam!! I wish she were in my class, I have all boys!
Just be thankful they go to class with a smile! My kids finally do but it took a long long time!
So we stil haven't decided about this weekend. I'll let you know when we figure it out. It mostly depends on the weather...we're afraid of the snow :)
Oh my heck, Your kiddos are so stinkin cute.
I had to fight back the tears too that sunday. The twins went into sunbeams too. Allie loved it and Jarom was so scared that he put his head in Allie's lap and she just rubbed his back and told him it was okay. So cute and heart wrenching at the same time.
Time goes by so fast and kids grow up too fast too! I need your address:) Email me @ nicmckinlay@gmail.com Thanks! P.S. this is Nicolette
