New callings, carpet, and Growing up fast.

I was just trying to remember what all has been going on around here the past couple of months. Sadly, this process seems to be too much for my mommy brain and I can't remember most of it right now, but, here is an account of what I can remember. I can't guarantee it will all be in order.

1st - Jim had been serving as the facilities director and family history consultant at church. On Sunday he was released and called to be the Branch clerk. So, no more riding to church together for us. He has to be there at 6:30 am for the morning meetings every Sunday. And, that leaves me here to get myself and 3 children ready for church every week. And, my 1st week at this we are supposed to be at church 30 min. early (8:30 am) for Choir practice cause they are doing the Easter program a week early since General Conference is on Easter Sunday. Not sure if I am going to be able to make it on time yet. My own recently acquired calling is RS Newsletter person. Which I have yet to do anything with.

2nd - We are enjoying our newly carpeted basement. It makes it a little warmer down there and took away some of the echo in the stairwell.

3rd- Our little Morgan is growing up so fast. He is now 7 1/2 months old and his recent achievements include learning how to get onto his hands and knees, being able to slide backwards across the floor, and he went from only being able to give us ahs and uhs to being able to say da and du as of just a couple of days ago.

4th - The compressor and fan for the A/C unit outside our house has now blown for the 2nd time in 6 1/2 yrs. Grrr.....what an expensive piece of junk they put in. We would need at least $2500 to replace the whole business, so, not happening, it will be repaired. Good news is that the compressor is still under warranty. So, the part itself is free of charge. Bad news is that the labor costs just as much as the part and is not free. Sigh, I guess God blessed us with a raise at Jim's work just in time for life to get more expensive.
