When life gives you Lemons...

She kept posing and smiling for the camera trying to get more and more pictures taken of her.. (I don't think it helped that daddy gave her a sugar cookie).

I went home again this weekend to spend some time with Lay. I figured since Harmonee is asleep most of the time, I would go home now, and be here for when Harmonee is more awake and ready to play!

Layla is having a hard time adjusting to mommy being gone most of the time. I took her to nursery today (this is her favorite thing to do) but she didn't look to thrilled about staying. When I told her I would be back, she gave me the "I'll stay if I have to, but I would rather go with you" look, her bottom lip poking out and quivering. As I knelt down to explain to her I would be back after church was over, she threw her arms around my neck... and we were off the relief society.
This weekend has been the weekend to remember! Saturday me and Brandon were going to go to Primary's to see Harm with a quick stop at the airport, and Brandon's reserve unit dinner that night. We had actually won a trip to the Bahamas, or Hawaii, the resort, food, and activities all paid for! On our way down to SLC, we realized we had forgotten something and turned around. On our way home we notice the car was starting to drive funny--the tire blew! After this Brandon had to give me a little pep talk "You need to think positive, we have each other, love each other. We have the girls. Layla is healthy and Harmonee is recovering." I love him. He always knows what to say. Needless to say, we did not get the trip, nor the dinner. Since we were not able to make it to Primary's, I though Harm could use the familiar voice. I called one of our best nurses from the infant unit to go see her--She was already on her way. I called Harm's PICU nurse to let her know what was going on, she agreed it was okay that her infant unit nurse come visit her. A little while later, our nurse called explaining that the PICU nurse would not let her in to see Harm! I hate it when she goes days with out hearing familiar voices.

To top it all off, I woke up today with a kinked neck, and to late to really get ready for church. A quick brush of the teeth and hair, I got Layla ready and we were off. Only to find once we had gotten to church that the doughnut tire was FLAT! While walking home I had to keep repeating what Brandon had told me. Luckily the rest of the day was relaxing!

He is a scruffy daddy... But he is a GREAT daddy!Got to see Princess Harmonee's eyes before going home on Friday!! Yay!
