My husband is great!

Since I became a mom, I have never really felt like "ahhhg! I need some alone time!" I have 3 possible reasons:

1. Jay is a good, cute, FUN little boy;

2. I only have ONE baby;

3. Jeff is so good about being around to watch Jay when I want to go running or something.

I think it's all of the above! Jeff has been SOO sweet this week! Yesterday he encouraged me to drive the 20 minutes out to a park so I could run on trails, even though I was gone for nearly 2 hours (trail running makes me feel like I could run forever!) This morning, Jeff changed a poopy diaper. Today was a stake conference at church, and it happened RIGHT during Jay's nap time. Since he hates sleeping in public when there's so much to see, Jeff kindly took care of a very crabby little boy out in the foyer (and in a classroom and who knows where else) so I could sit and enjoy the speakers--Elder Jay E. Jensen of the presidency of the Quorum of the Seventy spoke, and he was awesome! I met up with a slightly stressed, frazzled, but still patient Jeff after the meeting. Five gold stars to Jeff!

Since it goes against my personal philosophy to do a blog post without a picture, here's Jay showing off his ever-improving sweet sitting-up solo skills
