Happy Birthday Spencer!!

I love this little guy! He's something special... and we have the blue eye connection! We went to the park and spent a fun evening at Xtreme Play with cousins (thanks for coming Mike and Marnee!)
You can see why I'm so in love with this kid!! Here are some favorite memories of his first two years in life so far...

Spencer's Nursery Sub...

8:00 AM: I got a call this morning to sub in nusery. You know when the phone rings at 8:00 AM Sunday morning that someone is in desperate need of a sub! I loved hearing Sister Sanchez's voice on the other end inviting me to nursery! Afterall, I do have a pretty dang cute son in there and why not go spend some time with those adorable kids! I warned her that I was getting a cold but she said, "those kids are tougher than we are!" So I planned on subbing in nursery until...
9:40 AM: right after Sacrament mtg. ended and Bro. Allen came running up to me with "The Box" of singing time stuff! Apparantly Samantha may or may not be in labor but was feeling enough contractions that she couldn't teach singing time today! So I asked McKay to go and sub for me in nursery so that I could fill in for singing time.
8:32 AM: We were singing the opening hymn in church. I'm counting to make sure all four of them are there and I see Sis. Sanchez walk in with a beautiful, tall red head following behind. I lean over to McKay and say, "that's Wynonna Judd, the lady on the commercial yesterday that you asked me about!" McKay is not so sure but that fact is later verfified when Bro. Sanchez bears his testimony about "their good friend staying in there home who is a famous singer but first a mother"!
9:45 AM: Spencer is playing with all of his buddies and could care less that Wynonna Judd was over sitting on a tiny primary chair texting while McKay was busy breaking up nursery sized fights!
So, I'm thinking that singing time in primary didn't go quite as well as singing time in nursery!! What do you think!
