Baylee wants to be a SunBeam!

Posted by Picasa


We've been really talking up Primary since Nursery has been so difficult for Baylee to like and today was our first experience with Sunbeams! To say the least, it was a traumatizing experience! She was so excited and told me the other day that she wanted a Book of Mormon to bring to Primary with her, so my mom made her the cutest church bag for her with a Book of Mormon and some flashcards of the prophets and Jesus pictures and brought it to her this morning ... it was so cute and Baylee was so happy to go to church today. She had been telling me all morning how excited she was to be a Sunbeam and after Sacrament I walked her to the Primary room and introduced her to her teachers and she sat in her chair with her little church bag on her lap and tried to be brave but started to cry as soon as I started to go. I told her I'd sit with her for a minute during the singing time and she loved it ... she sang the songs and listened to the story in sharing time. Then the time came to go to her class and have their lesson (it didn't help that there was 3 other little boys and no girls but her in the class) and she was suddenly a nervous wreck and started crying again as I tried to leave. Her teachers were so sweet and told me to go anyway and she could cry it out for a minute ... so I did and could hear her on the other side of the building as I got to my YW class. After about 3 minutes the Primary president came to get me to let me know that Baylee had gotten a bloody nose and her teacher was in the bathroom with her and Bay was hysterical. I went straight over and apparently Bay had gotten herself so worked up that her nose started to bleed and it was gushing ... on top of that she started to throw up blood clots (sorry ... too graphic) and it took me and her sweet teacher about 10 minutes to get it to stop! I told her thanks so much for all her help but we'd have to attempt class next week ... Baylee had put the class through enough for one day :) Bay was excited as usual to be a YW and come to class with the 'big' girls. As we got in my class, she very loudly (still shooken up) tells me and my class "Mom, your class is much better than my class." Soooo funny! Better luck next week I hope!

ohhh, poor thing! I hadn't heard about that! How did I miss it? The Colledges are GREAT teachers. Isaac is not a good kid at church...like at ALL. But they were so patient and good with him all year last year, and now he just goes to Primary like it's no big deal. Give it a few months, she'll get used to it eventually. Isaac did.

Thanks for the comment on my blog! Your so sweet. I'm thinking that Billy won't be playing anymore, but that's his choice. I'll take him to the ER anytime he needs it. :)

Your little guy looks just like Hunter! So darling!

Oh and I LOVE your recipe blog you have! I think I'll be adding that one to my list. I'm a horrible cook, but I am trying.
