SCRIPTURES FIRST!

Jif is a boy of order. And he is very good at making sure we remember all the steps in getting him ready for bed.  The other day I was gone at a church meeting and my husband told Jif to clean up his toys because it was almost time for bed.  Jif proceeded to scream "NOT YET!!! SCRIPTURES FIRST!"  My husband assured Jif that we would read scriptures and started cleaning up the toys, but Jif did not help him.  Jif jumped up on the couch, grabbed the scriptures and opened them and began reading "And Behold, Lead me Guide me walk beside me."

Reese is becoming a big girl!  Last Tuesday she crawled on hands and knees for the first time, pulled herself up to a standing position for the first time, and had her first two teeth poke through.  She says "no no no no no" whenever she is angry.  And claps and says "Yay" whenever she is happy.  She also says "tada" and raises her hands in the air.  And my husband and I both agree that she has been saying "I did it" and "all done".  I'm not sure if she knows what those mean, I think she is just coping Jif since he says those two things non stop all day.  At first we thought it was coincidence but she has been saying those two phrases over and over and they are getting clearer and clearer.
