Adilynn Rae has arrived :)

I know I know put up pictures of the baby, of the kids - I will I promise.  Too tired for much tonight.  Just waiting for the dryer to finish. . .

Adilynn Rae Miller was born at 11:14pm on May 30th.  :)  8 lbs 6 oz.  (my second smallest)  She came (I was induced) 4 days early - but only because I lied to the doctor about dates so that I don't have to go the WHOLE time because my babies are obviously big!  (In fact they always measure a week or two ahead of what they really are - so I can get away with it.)

 This is my favorite picture :)
 This shows her face well.
And this one shows my handsome hubby and all her hair!  (most of all my kids!)


Just had to laugh how I put on my last post how happy i was to have my easy calling, and just have more fun/time being a mom and with my new baby.

Had sweet baby Adilynn late Wednesday night. . . got a text Sunday morning asking if I was going to church 'cause the bishop wanted to meet.  Then Bishop offered to come to my home before church instead. :)

He asked me to serve as . . . . . wait for it. . . . RS Secretary.  I just LAUGHED when he asked.  My husband offered to explain my laughter.

See - when we moved to Arizona I was a Primary teacher for about 8 months
- then Primary sec. for over 3 years
Cub Master for about 8 months (still not sure what they were smoking with that one - um I had 2 daughters and came from 4 sisters NO brothers)
YW Sec. for 8 months (then we moved)
This new ward we moved into -
hubby and I were nursery for 5 months
then I was Humanitarian for 5 months. . .
Now - full circle - secretary again.

I am happy to serve, and for the chance to get to know more people etc.  But I am kinda done with the secretary thing - been there done that for about 4 years now :)  Funny thing is all I really want to do is teach.  My preference - Gospel Doctrine - but I would take ANYThing if I got to teach.  I miss it and I love it.

My president has agreed to let me teach a first Sunday lesson a few times - so that makes me happy anyways. :)

Well, I am just super grateful that after only being home for 2 days- and ALL of her siblings coming down with fevers, nasty eye infections and who knows what else - she appears to have dodged the bullet.  I think I have some kind of cough thing now. . . apparently throwing your 7 year old her first birthday party with 10 little girls - 2 weeks after you have a baby weakens the immune system - cause I was feeling fine till last night.  My hubby keeps trying to remind me that it takes 6 weeks for your body to heal. . .

I feel good - except my throat - and I am TOTALLY playing volleyball on wed. :)

I'm laughing that you lie to your doctor about the dates.

Someone must think you make a pretty good secretary. I am worried that since the Jensens just moved, I'll get called back as organist. I'm not ready to leave my primary calling!
