Last Sunday, (1/3/2010) I was able to go to all 3 hours of church!!! I was sooooo proud of Kai. Our church used to meet at 9am and Kai's normal nap time was 9:30am so you can imagine how grumpy Kai was by the time Sacrament Meeting was over. But now, our church is at 1pm so it is easier for Kai to stay up (afternoon naps are not as crucial for him)(also, you will not believe how many more people showed up to church when it was at 1pm...it's like the numbers tripled!! I guess they weren't morning people). The day was going really well and Kai was really good during Sacrament, so Jason and I thought "hey, we can try Sunday School". Then, he did superduper well in Sunday School so I thought I'd give Relief Society a try and what do you know! Kai did it! In Sunday School, he kept smiling and laughing at the people sitting behind me and Jason...the more he smiled, the more they paid attention to him...and Kai loved all the attention he was getting! In Relief Society, the Sister next to me was sooo sweet. Her name is Heather and She was helping me throughout Relief Society. Kai grabbed her watch so she gave it to him to play...he then grabbed her bracelet, and she gave that to him too! Kai would throw things on the ground and she'd help me pick it up...and she's Pregnant!!! so I know it wasn't easy for her to keep reaching down. (FYI: I dont just let Kai grab people's things...and I don't expect pregnant women to pickup Kai's torys...but in my defense, I had Kai on my lap with books, paper, snacks all over the place which made it quite difficult to also keep Kai's hands under control!). So, with the help of Heather and all the other Sisters around me, I was able to stay all 3 hours of church. I was sooo happy!!! I was so proud of Kai that I couldn't help but have Jason take a picture when we got home!
