Bliss


Today was day number 5 of luci being sick...again. This time she's had a high fever and no other symptoms, so the doctor finally decided to put her on antibiotics just in case. Well, that means more antibiotics for poor little luci. And lots of days waiting in our cute little house until she gets better. Jacob is super busy volunteering, working, fulfilling his church callings, working out, reading, and driving to and from his externship. He only comes home at a decent time twice a week. Otherwise it's just me in my little house while Luci sleeps. It's really hard to motivate myself to eat good, among other things, when he's not around to cook for. So, when my visiting teachers dropped by these cookies, the battle had begun. To eat dinner, or to eat chocolate chip cookies. In the end I ate both. Some cookies before, during, and after dinner though. This was my favorite, Smore's sandwich. Have you ever tried it? Why have I never tried it before?? I think Elijah might have more of a sweet tooth than is humanly possible. Sweets have been just so wonderful lately. So has my luci girl. She certainly is not quiet, or still, ever. But she is wonderful. She really does "make me happy when sky's are grey". Every night, as I pick up her little things, shoes, purses, pictures she's scribbled, I can't help but be happy.

I feel your pain, although I don't have an excuse for craving sweets! But I mean the pain of being alone and indoors while my husband is gone. Devin studies at home, but I can't be with him although he's here in body. But I'm impressed that you think thoughts like those while picking up after your sweetie. You are a good woman!

I have never heard of a Smore's Sandwich. Did you just heat it up in the oven? Kurt would be a big fan.

Oh Hang in there Danilee! I think we are going through the same feelings and experiences with our Hubbys being gone ALl the time1 I know it's only going to get worse when Tucker starts his rotations. I am now convinced that the last year is the hardest because I am SO anxious to be done! You look SO BEAUTIFUL! You really are a pretty pregnant lady! ;) I am so sorry to hear about Luci not feeling well. My kids have had a high fever with no other symptoms before, it's weird and kind of scary but atleast you don't have to worry about dehydration. I love you tons and if you ever want/need to talk give me a call!

We make those all the time! It's way easier and softer to roast a marshmallow and sandwich it in between two soft chocolate chip cookies! Yum! Love ya!
