Just thinking...

I have just been thinking a lot about how grateful I am for all that I have. I am grateful that my husband is such a worker (even though he is only here 2 nights a week!). He would do anything for anyone. He is an amazing example to me and for our kids. Speaking of kids! I do NOT know how I would have made it through this pregnancy, or the arrival of our bundle of joy without my kids! They are simply fabulous. Martin will do anything I ask, without complaint, he loves playing with Joshua and making him smile. He is such a great kid(and broken bone free for over a year..YAY! *crosses fingers* that it will continue!)! I dont know how I lucked out! Lexi is amazing with Joshua, I asked her to help me get him dressed yesterday for the Relief Society Dinner, because as usual I was running late, and I think she dressed him faster than I do! She is always willing to hold him and help me. Nathan is definately warming up to him! He will talk to him and try to make him smile now, which is a huge step for him! He is helpful and fun loving and so sweet, "mom, I love your cooking!" LOL, I can sure bake a frozen pizza! ;) I am so thankful for the friends I've made here!(and my forever friends from afar!) They are so wonderful! Our ward is awesome, they all pitched in and helped do sooo much work on the house before I came home from the hospital, I can't thank them enough for all that they did for us! I know that I have said some of this before but I just felt that I needed to share!

Lexi is convinced that Drizzle is a she, so for her sake this is father and daughter. This is the one that was born here. I'm soo glad that our offspring do not grow up this fast!

2 months old!


He is already more comfy with Eeyore! He's growing sooo fast! I can't beleive its 2 months!! The one on the left is his 1 month, and the right is 2 months. He was 11 lbs 2 oz last week, so he's definately not starving! :) We are enjoying him so much, the kids are fabulous with him. He is now "gooo" ing and "agoooo" ing. SO CUTE! And a fleeting smile now and again, you really cherish them when they happen.
