What a week!

"It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was a time of great joy and a time of great sorrow..." Wow, Dickens really knew what he was talking about! Lots of things this week. I'll give you the "worst of times" first. Well, Saturday we took our beloved dog, Ziggy, to Salt Lake to be taken to a new home. It was not working out with London, and Ziggy was way too much to handle. But at least I think she is in a better home environment that can give her the attention she needs. So, Frankie, our other dog, is back to being by herself, which she doesn't seem to be minding one bit.

Now for the best of times. Also on Saturday I went to a baby shower for my friend Rachel. For my baby shower gift, I made my first diaper cake! No, this is not an actual cake. It is diapers in three tiers to resemble a cake. It didn't turn out half bad, if I do say so myself. I also put some mittens,teething rings, and a rattle in it as well. Unfortunately, the top tier came off while I was heading into the shower. The rattle in the cake was pink. Kyle, Rachel's husband, has already threatened me that if their little boy ends of liking pink I am the one going to be blamed for it. Well, too bad!

But the best part of all,London was blessed on Sunday! Most of our family and friends we invited were there, with a few surprises. One of our good friends who lives in Alabama, surprised us and was able to come! It was so good to see him and catch up for the few days he was here. And two of our other friends that I wasn't sure would come, but was hoping they would, also came. London looked so cute in her little dress, and was quiet while Drew was doing her blessing. It was a beautiful experience to see her surrounded by her father,both grandfathers, her great-grandfather, and some of our closest friends. I'm grateful to have such supportive friends and family that could share that with us.

Afterwards, we had everyone round to our house for cake and ice cream. And of course everyone wanted to hold and play with London. She was a bit tuckered out after that! But, she is the sweetest, happiest little girl. I'm continually amazed with how much she's growing and changing all the time. She trying really hard to sit herself up, but can't quite make it. She's not big enough yet. She's also getting really good a lifting her head up on her own and looking around. She cries after a little bit, but she's still doing really well.

I can't believe that she's three months old already!

Other great news is that London is finally sleeping at night! I am of course very excited about this as it means I get to sleep too.
