Jeff and I have been HORRIBLE lately about going to the temple. Part of the reason is I didn't want to go while I was prego because I had no idea what each day would bring. It was a whole new experience and I didn't want to pass out or have my water break or something totally embarrassing like that happen. Anyway, enough excuses...we finally went to the temple again yesterday! We had LOTS of trials from the moment we woke up. Satan really didn't want us entering the temple, but NOTHING was going to stop us. We had decided to go to the Bountiful Temple since Jeff's parents live near there and could watch Riley and so we did! After the session I was waiting for Jeff in the Celestial Room. While I was sitting there a thought came to me, "It feels good to be home." It was true. It felt so good to be back in the Lord's House. It had been way too long. I will hold on to that feeling and when it starts to fade away I'll know it's time to visit His house again. I am go grateful to be worthy to enter His house and even more grateful for a worthy husband to be there by my side.

That's awesome, Carrie. I know about the scary episodes you worry about when prego, but I actually passed out when I wasn't prego! Yeah, embarrassing.
I've been meaning to leave a comment on your blog for a long time. I love reading your experiences as a new mom because they've been so similar to mine. I know exactly what you mean about making the effort to get to the temple. Nate and I have an even harder time now because Bridget is extremely attached to me and cries for a long time with anyone we leave her with.
