I'm loved

The other day I went to meet my Mom for lunch. I had to feed Isaak, so I got there a little early so I could feed him in the parking lot. I've been listening to Christmas Music and thought it would be quite festive if we listened to Christmas music while he was eating. I usually feed him in the backseat because it's more discreet and there is more room. I also need to mention that all growing up my Grandma said, "Always lock your door so no one can get in." I've been terrified of these people that want in my car so I always lock my doors.

Since I wanted festive music I had to leave my keys in the ignition and climb into the backseat, which I did. I'm happily feeding Isaak in the back when I realize I haven't locked the doors! I start to panic what if those people want in now? we are so vulnerable. I better try to reach up front and lock the doors. Then I look over and realize that all the doors are already locked. I start to scratch my head in thought. If I locked the doors when I got out of the car how did I open the back door to get into the back seat??? Still an enigma. I think it was a miracle. Thanks Heavenly Father. I might have had a nervous breakdown had I locked my baby in the car with my keys, while he was hungry.

We also stopped at our first accident the other day. It was the day a couple weeks ago when it actually snowed. We saw a car spin out of control and hit the barrier. I yelled at Cory to get over. We jumped out of the car and both started running to the other car when we realized we probably shouldn't leave Isaak alone in the car on the side of the freeway. Cory told me to run to the car since I knew first aid and have my Wilderness First Responder. I stood shocked and terrified--what if the driver was seriously hurt, dangerous, dead, bleeding, or a myriad of pictures went through my mind. Cory noticed I was scared and showed more courage than me. He ran back to the car and checked on the guy. He was fine. He was scared, but he was okay. Phew. Cory is my hero. He also scrapped all the ice off my car for me when I had to leave early before he went to work. Now he's my super hero.

Awww.. Cory is a good guy.
So were those people hurt at all? It's nice when we can recognize life's little miracles.

the guys car was all smashed up, but he was fine. His airbag went off. He just kept asking, "hey do you guys know what happened??"

I love you guys. I also just thought about if he had a bad enough wound if you would have to take your shirt off as a tuniquette (how do you spell that!?) That joke has still been a good one for years..... love you guys!

You are loved!

The picture of cory and isaak is adorable. Isaak is my hero but Cory is a close second. I looked at your mom's photography blog and noticed some cute cute pictures of you....

I was the first to respond to an automobile accident before... it was very scary and I lucked out because a doctor ran up behind me and he handled the blood and everything else much better then I did. I am glad that those experiences don't happen all too often.

Oh and I am glad that Heavenly Father was watching over you. Having a baby locked in the car is an experience that you should NEVER have... and I hope to NEVER experience that too :) I would probably go crazy and break a window or something. Don't you love the moments when we are reminded of how loved we are?

Whaaaaat??????

I'm happily brushing my teeth in the bathroom. I'm looking around wondering what else I could be doing while I'm brushing my teeth and I started to think to myself, hmmmm , I wonder what's in toothpaste? I picked up the tube with my free hand and continued brushing. As I was reading the back I noticed a WaRnINg : Do not use for more than four weeks at a time. What? Do not use for more than four weeks? I anticipated reading if you swallow more than what you are brushing your teeth with call poison control. I try to start adding up how long I've been using this toothpaste. Cory didn't like it, so I've been using it solo and it has surely been more than four weeks. Now I don't know what to do with it--do I take a break and come back to it or do I just keep using it? I mean it's been about three months and I still have quite a bit left and nothing seems out of the ordinary yet...But seriously I think that the warning on the toothpaste should at least be

OW!!!!!

So yesterday we decided to go rollerblading. I know it’s a little out of style, but it is great fun. The first thing that I need to mention is that I have a great pair of rollerblades. They are speedy-I barely have to move. The second is that I’m not great at stopping. I can do it, but it’s hard to stop quickly. So the story-There is this trail by our house that is hilly and curvy. We start going uphill and we are going against the wind so it’s pretty hard. We were a huffin’ and puffin’ and sweatin‘--Cory more than me since he‘s actually pushing the stroller. I start to get a little nervous when Cory points out that we will be going downhill and the wind will push us. Hmmmm-I’m thinking to myself that means we’ll practically be flying. I tell myself it’s okay because I’ve gotten much better at stopping. I even reached the top of the trail before Cory and was telling my friend Tina that I had better get off the phone unless I wanted to end up getting plastic surgery from face planting.
