I get to hang out with this cuteness a lot

in this particular picture Teagan (almost 5 months) and I were hanging out while her mom ran some errands and Teagan was super cranky and hot so we hung out with this fuzzy blanket and she calmed down when it rubbed against her skin and we played peeka boo - If you like puzzles you should be a infant care giver because making them happy sometimes is a puzzle :)

Here is a tour of my house - I will write an update soon (give me 4 days, tops)













This is the Michael House of Maggie's Place. We live in Glendale which is a suburb or Phoenix. About 15-20 minutes from downtown Phoenix - It doesn't look that big but it has 7 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, a shed, and other extremities.

Right now we house 6 moms, 4 babies, 4 staff members, and that is about what we have room for, besides more babies!

The girl holding the babies is Christina, one of my housemates. She is holding River (2 months) and Teagan (4 months).
That is our room, my bed is the top bunk, with all my pictures, we also have quite a lot of storage space.
Then we have our office, the counseling room, the chapel, the dining room, the living room, the backyard (a filled in pool :(
And my new vintage bike that was donated! I took a ride today, it was wonderful! It isn't officially mine, but no on e else is interested in riding it :)

Living Life


Yesterday the other girls that I live with at Maggie's Place were talking about how we live life at a high pace. The amount of things that happen in a day, week, and month here is crazy. Even the things that can happen in an hour. I am living life at a very accelerated pace. I can't explain it.

This is Tempe, we climbed ASU Mountain (a medium size mountain by the Arizona State college campus, this bridge is really pretty... I will be taking more night pictures of it...
We are by a big airport and planes fly overhead a lot.
Tempe is about 25 min from my house.
and about 20 minutes away from Mesa where Obama gave a talk today, crazy.
