Can you say growth spurt

So Lylah has always been a great sleeper, but today is extreme. She went to bed last night at 7pm and fed a couple times till 8 this morning, but went right back to bed each time she ate. So this morning I am playing with her and she falls asleep at 8:45am so I take her up to her crib and she sleeps till about 11am. She wakes up and I feed her and play around some more and then what does she do fall back asleep at 12:15pm and is still sleeping and it is 2:29pm to be exact. I have checked on her a few times just to make sure everything is ok and it is, she is sleeping away! Usually she takes naps during the day, but they only last about an hour or so and this two hour nap thing is nice, because I have time to organize some closets and clean up. I know this is totally random, but for some reason I love my house to be spotless on Sundays! It could be because its the Sabbath, but I love not having to do anything and because that is one of Sean's only days off.
On Tuesday she will be 4 months and we got to her month check-up and get shots. I will update on how is all goes!!

For those of you who don't know!

Uhh... I guess that title makes it sound like something serious! Well I just wanted to let everyone know that I am a Scentsy Consultant now. I started selling back in July and absolutely love it!! I love that I can work and make as much or a little as I want and get to stay home with Lylah! I truly feel like this has been a blessing to our family. It is a great company to work for and the product sells itself. Anyway, if I can help any of you out for birthday presents, Christmas gifts, or what not let me know. August is a great month for it because everything besides a few select items are 10% off. My website is https://srussell.scentsy.us, tell everyone you know I am really trying to network and let everyone I know about it!! Thanks to all of you that have already helped out I appreciate it a ton!!

Wonderful Thursdays

I was so excited when I found out our ward was having a volleyball team. When we lived in Clovis I played pretty regularly with some ladies and absolutely loved it. I became more familiar with the game and learned some techniques to actually play a decent game. So like I said I was pumped that our ward had a team, the only thing is that only 4 people ever come (well once we had six people) and so far we have lost 2 and won 1. I think we get better each week because that is the only time we "Practice." So last Thursday I met Sean up at the Stake Center because the women were playing at 6:45 and the guys at 7:30. So he watched Lylah while I played and vice versa. We won our game and played all three sets and the guys lost playing only two sets. One thing I don't get is that it looks so easy when guys are playing, maybe because they take up more room I'm not sure? Anyway we had a lot of fun and plan on it from here on out.
