Interesting weekend...

Sunday was quite the day... It started by me rushing out the door for church - and hitting a squirrel. In a split second - I knew it was going to happen. He darted out so quick, did the whole "which way do I go?" thing - I couldn't brake fast enough... I felt the thump, then saw his little body spinning on the ground in my rear-view mirror. I commited involuntary squirrel-slaughter. Of course I prayed & cried "dear God, I'm sorry I killed one of your creations, I pray he died quickly & didn't suffer any pain" :( I was so bummed.

Church was GREAT though. Pastor preached on "expecting" from the book of Daniel. He really nailed the message and how we need to EXPECT God to show up, and do amazing things (that doesn't even do the message justice).

BBQ'd with family afterwards - came home, had Aislynn sitting on my lap (facing me) and she made thunder in her diaper. I praised her, then realized the yellowness was oozing from the sides of her bloomers, onto my jeans. It was a 2-parent ordeal. We had blankets & burpclothes, trying to contain the yellowness. Finally, Michael suggested "lets just stick her in the bath". And that we did - Aislynn enjoyed her late-afternoon surprise bath!

Then there's ol' Zeus (Ziggity as we sometimes call him). I promised I would take him to the park - so I did. We walked the trail that leads to a stream and he jumped right in & splashed around. I like how he walks and bites the splashes at the same time! We came home, and I realized - I needed to give him a bath too. So he got his 'monthly' bath. Why is it when dogs get a bath, they zip around the house like they won the lotto? Maybe they just like feeling clean.

I then contemplated clipping some coupons, making my grocery list, and going shopping... but that didn't happen till yesterday. With the whole coupon thing - you really need hours to plan & get organized. I did save $40.00 (and only spent $65) - so that was nice :)

Back at work now - wishing it was Friday at 4:59 pm. OH and we're getting Aislynn dedicated on Sunday, August 9th. I'm sooo looking forward to it - but I know I'm gonna be an emotional mess - she's getting so big - and you can never go back to when they're little. I love my sweet baby girl!
