Progress

When progress occurs slowly over time, often it is very hard to detect.  Today there were some marked forward steps:

Rex said, "cheese" when Sariah pointed the camera at him.

Hyrum buttoned one of his shirt buttons by himself.

Sariah tied her dress tie by herself.

Bryant was in the van by departure time.

Talmage tied his tie by himself.  (James had to retie it for length, but he did it.)

Yeah! Yeah! and Yeah!  We're that much closer to smoother Sunday mornings.

September has been an absolutely gorgeous month.  If it hadn't been for the smoke from the fires, it would have been unbelievable.  We have so enjoyed these pleasant, pleasant days.

The evenings are cool so when we came inside this weekend we took to the super heros.

On Friday night we watched Thor while James was at his seminary opening social.

Last night, we watched The Avengers.  The kids have loved it.

So, Lizza says, "If it's weird, it happens to the Hales."  Here's proof:

 Sariah threw up Wednesday night.  James helped her into the tub while I changed her bedding.  He saw this rash appear before his eyes while she was in the tub.  It was out of control and itched like crazy.  Thanks to some Benadryl she was able to go back to sleep and it was gone by morning.  Yes, weird.  Has anyone ever heard of being allergic to throwing up?!
