I love my food processor. It makes life so much easier when you have a baby with only 4 teeth. =) Not only can he eat all the food we eat, we are saving a TON of money. I do buy some jarred baby food because when we are away from home it makes it easier to feed him rather than trying to figure out what we should get him that is nutritional and good.

In other news...we are traveling to Michigan for the 4th. I can't wait! Hopefully it will be nice warm weather. I have every intention of spending time in the great outdoors as much as possible. I am not, however, looking forward to the 18 hour drive. My husband keeps telling me that for most of the way it will be at night so they should sleep. I don't think he remembers when we traveled back to MI for Easter last year. It was a full moon & both girls were up for about 6 extra hours than they should have been. They didn't fall asleep until 2 A.M. Oh well, I shall always have the memory of snuggling Sarah in the wee hours of the morning & talking with Juliana about things that mattered to her in those moments. =)

As hard as it has been for me these past few months, I am thankful that in the moments it was hardest to focus on my kids I did & I truly embraced this portion of their childhood. I hope in heaven we can remember all these moments we spent with the people we love the most and also share them with others who were not able to take part in them.
