I just got called to be Laurels Advisor which the Bishopric probably did because of my recent spotty attendance to church. I am a little excited about the calling but mostly scared and the thoughts "Why me?" have crept in.
Also, this passed week we have had 2 new additions to the family. Jenni had her baby last Wed and she and Josh named him Austin Merrick. Then Erin had her baby on Friday and Jake and Erin named him Luke Thomas. They were actually in the hospital on overlapping days and were able to get a picture together in the hall with their little crib baskets. These are 2 out of the 7 new grandchildren coming in 6 months for the Smith family. They will be more than doubling grandkids. Melanie is pregnant with identical twin boys and Hailey is pregnant with identical twins, not sure what the sex is. And of course I am pregnant. We figured Christmas 2007 there will be 7 one-year olds running around! How crazy will that be?
Now that Lily is awake from her nap, I think we will go to Fiesta Texas water park and cool off.

Lately, I haven't had a lack of things I could write about; I basically have had no desire to be on the computer with morning sickness and all. This is week 15 for me, and I am happy to report that I have been feeling better. I still have had trouble sleeping and a little bit of crazy hormones but my nausea is tapering off.

That will be one awesome troop of cousins. How exciting. Does the Rick Smith family get together every Christmas?
