New callings and other Gamble happenings...

I got a new calling this Sunday, Enrichment leader. EEk! This is probably no big deal to some of you, but I have never actually been the one in charge of anything church-wise( just on committees) so I am pretty nervous. We have a super sweet ward and I had a couple ladies tell me how much fun it/I/we would be. Honestly that was the adjective everyone used, Fun. I guess I am the fun one? I am ok with that, but hopefully I can do it justice and maybe throw in a little spirituality.

Alianna's potty training is going awesome. She rarely has accidents( really only at bedtime or naptime) and always tells me and starts cleaning it up herself. Exhibit A, she came in from naps and sadly informed me" I wet" I said it was ok adn did she pee in her pants. "NO momma I peed my panties, they like pants on your legs but they just panties on your bum see" ( as she pulls up her dress and points to the panties) " see mommy they princesses on my panties and they got wet, but they not pants they panties I need to change them now and make them dry in ondry(laundry) "

Kendall is becoming quite the little flirt. He smiles at everything ( see the family pics for further proof) and is a very happy baby as long as he has recently been feed and someone is holding him or talking to him. He likes to be in on all the action. We started feeding him rice cereal this week and he seems to like it except that it doesn't get in his mouth fast enough. He also thinks he can crawl, he puts his face down in the carpet and pushes hard with his legs. If he wasn't so chubby, I think he could probably get up. 

Family Pictures

 I finally stepped up and got family pictures taken. The last professional pictures we had taken were when Alianna was about 8 months, so I guess it was about time. The kids did awesome, the picture lady kept raving about them and saying how she wished they were all this easy. I say they are just a couple of hams living it up in front of the camera.  They were some dang cute shots though, I ended up buying the cd just because I figured the grandparents would want multiple copies of each shot.
