Just in Time

We had a babyshower for my sister Alma. She was supposed to be induced on the 15th of February, but her water broke during church on the 13th. The worst part was that her daughter Victoria was assigned to give the scripture and closing prayer in primary. Her husbad assisted her and said it was the longest two minutes of his life. He called me soon after because I was supposed to be in the delivery. She lives about an hour and a half away from me, so Matthew and I rushed to the hospital. She had that baby in three pushes. We arrived just in time. It was such a beautiful experience. I had the opportunity to be in her first delivery as well, with the same doctor. This is her third girl. Anyway here are pictures of the babyshower, we had a tea party.

My sister in-law Crystal made this beautiful diaper cake

I was so proud of my cupcakes, I've never made them so fancy before.

This picture makes her belly look so small, but it was pretty big.

Victoria excited for another baby sister.

Her other daughter, Rebekah

and the shower gifts

Uzziah took part in this too

Uzziah's latest words and phrases

Uzziah is quite the talker, he's been saying some pretty funny stuff lately. He cracks me up.

3.5 yrs

Uzziah was pretending to be a dinosaur the other day, a T-Rex to be exact, and asked:

"Hey mom what are you doing?"

I replied, "oh I'm just sitting; what are you doing?" I asked him, and he goes

"oh, I'm just T-Rexing"

3.5 yrs

While taking a walk Uzziah ran over a snail with his bike and looked at me all concerned, then said, with some ease flowing into his face,

"that's ok, he's with Jesus now"

I couldn't help but laugh

Uzziah always gives me a hard time about putting his clothes on. This particular time I was calling him to put his pj's on, mind you HE was the one asking me to put them on. Well every time he asked to put them on I'd say ok come here and I'll do it, then he would run away or simply not come to me. I hate chasing him around and finally a few minutes later he goes:

"Mom, you forgot to put my pj's on"

I say: no, I didn't forget but every time I try you don't let me. I hope that this time you let me"

And he says: "well I hope so too"

3yrs

My sister and I get together once every two weeks to take the kids to the library and then go out to lunch. Well Uzziah really wanted his cousins to come over after the library and tells auntie:

"Hey auntie, you wanna come to our house, it's ok we have food"

I guess he wanted to ensure her that we wouldn't miss lunch if they came over. So cute.

A friend suggested getting him a few of his favorite toys (monster trucks) and setting them right in the bathroom, everytime he goes #2, he gets a toy. Anyway grandma was in the restroom and when she was all done Ziah says with so much excitement in his voice: "Grandma, good job you get a monster truck!!!"
