Ok so this Tuesday we flew to Arizona as a family to see our family members there. (THANK HEAVENS JAMES WAS WITH ME on this flight). Taylor is what I would call a fairly "experienced" flyer because he was on 23 airplanes while in my belly :) wink wink, and has been on 6 in the first year of his life...this flight was his 7th. It's only an hour and 15 min. flight but just after take off he was being EXTRA fussy. Didn't want his binky, or juice, or milk , or to sit, or stand or lay, kept fighting everything and about 15 min. into the flight Taylor was on James lap, facing me (Another blessing....I guess) and Taylor threw up. (NO WONDER HE WAS SO UPSET EARLIER) poor bug didn't feel well. I was not expecting this at all and sat SHOCKED, while he threw up again, and again and again. Honestly I was scared because I didn't think it was a good thing that THAT much ....... stuff was coming out of his little body. I did not even CARE that I was being thrown up on. The interesting thing is that before I had Taylor I said that I would be able to handle anything as a mother EXCEPT Blood or throw up and now I have dealt with both, marvelously....HEAVEN REALLY HELPS US step in and play our mom roles, I know it. Needless to say the man next to James got up and moved to a diff. seat and so did the lady in front of him. Another blessing is that we were in the last row and could get up and clean up in the bathroom easily. After this whole tramatizing moments in life, Taylor was fine and giggling and back to his old self.
So this story poses a BIG IMPORTANT QUESTION??? DO AIRLINES CLEAN, I MEAN CLEAN...CLEAN THEIR SEATS EVERY NOW AND AGAIN? MAN< I HOPE SO >. Anyone know?
Small PS. about Taylor. He took his first steps in Arizona. Is not walking yet but I am sure it's coming soon. It's very exciting. Some things have changed in the last week with Taylor though. Anyone that knows him knows that for the most part, THIS KID DOES NOT CRY...he is VERY even mannered and so sweet and just overall a VERY EASY BABY. Well I think now that he has turned one it's time to test mom and dad. Just in the last week he started with a little shriek and screaming when he is mad and wants something. IT IS NOT THE TAYLOR we've known for a year. I think we are entering a VERY SCARY Chapter of his life. :) haha Please NO Terrible two's early. We'll see. Also he has taken a small interest in sucking his thumb/fingers. He also has NEVER done this...so I am trying to stop that habit before he creates it at age one. I'd rather stick to one bad habit to break later....the binky. WISH ME LUCK. Anyone else w/ kids ever hear that TEMPERS start flaring around 1???

Taking the time...
One of our Sunday School teachers does such a great job and taking the time to think about and ponder our lessons, they are SO GOOD and you get so much out of them. Here are some thoughts from last week.
We talked about Saints today and the trials we are faced with since Stan is working overtime these days.
"Satan doesn't disguise his fiery darts in ugly wrapping paper." ISN'T That the truth.
Someone pointed out the show "Friends" now I know we all watched and LOVE friends but here's just a thought to think about: It is Written well, it is FUNNY all the stars are very attractive people, its story lines go against everything we believe in. But we rationalize beyond belief because maybe there is one underlying point that is good. Think about the above quote about Satan when you think about watching some of these shows ( I AM SO GUILTY )--- just a thought. Maybe we can all be a little better in the future.
Things we are battling today: Work/Life (the fact that it takes so much time that we are away from quality family time. Clothing Styles, Music (this is a BIG ONE), TV/Entertainment/Computer (we all know the evil there), Blessings (to describe this one he talked about the fact that not ALWAYS but a lot of the times when we are BLESSED with all we need; we don't rely on the Lord as much so maybe we are not on our knees as much as we should be. Good point. The Author of all this evil is Satan. When we talk about the Battle in heaven.... that means that actively there is 1/3 of the host of heaven HELPING SATAN. He has so many on his side actively persuing our downfall. But that also means we have 2/3 of the host of heaven HELPING US and pulling for us to be protected and make the right choices..... The Holy Ghost is spirit to spirit and is far stronger then Satan if we allow it.
I thought that was an interesting thought because when I think of the War in Heaven I think of before/ then but not NOW/CURRENTLY. But it absolutly is a battle now, today.... they are fighting against each other to see who will come out in the end.
Have a great day and Do something great today :)
