One is the Loneliest Number

Yesterday E had dance. On those days B usually goes to play at his friend C's house because he seriously hates having to go with us to take E to dance. After dance E wanted to play with her cousin A who lives in Bountiful. A's Mom said that M could just pick her up on his way home from work. That left me with about 4 hours of alone time.

What was I going to do with myself?!? My house was already clean, I didn't need to do any shopping, I didn't have any current sewing projects. I was seriously feeling sad! I can't even imagine what I will do when both B and E are in school full time! I sure hope that we are blessed with another baby before that day comes because I was LONELY!

I have dreamed about having hours to sit at home by myself and enjoy the quiet, but it really wasn't that great! I missed having E chatter away in the background. I really love my kids!

I could have done something constructive, but instead I sat with my laptop and read what Stephanie Meyer had published of Midnight Sun. I know, lame huh? But it was a good time filler. It will be so weird some day when my kids don't need me so much. I can't even imagine it! I guess it will be OK. I just need a little time to mentally prepare myself.

Our St. George Trip

On Valentine's Weekend we went to stay at M's brother's house in St. George. We hadn't been down there since B was a newborn. We had lots of fun.

A dinosaur footprint at Johnson's Farm Dinosaur Museum. It wasn't quite as much fun as the Dinosaur Museum at Thanksgiving Point, but of course B enjoyed it.

We also went to Zion's and did a little hiking. This is a picture from under Weeping Rock.

E's Dance Recital

E had her first dance recital. Her studio did Swan Lake. She was a star. The cutest darn star you have ever seen.

B was a trouper to sit through her recital. Here he is trying to look like a ballerina.

Here's E on stage.

Way to go E!
