long time




It has been a while since I last wrote. I thought I might update on what has been going on with our family. Well in the past month we have had to battle colds and the flu. I haven't gotten sick but Stephen has had a really bad case of the flu and a really bad cold. Lucas also had to get over his first cold and it wore me out. But we are all pretty well again no more sickness and hopefully it will stay like that for a while...crosses fingers...Also Stephen is going to go back to Montana Fiberglass at the end of the month. Which I think will be good for us. Stephen is kinda sad because he really likes the accountant work that he is doing right now but going back to Montana Fiberglass will be more stable for all. Even though the Yogo is like trying to sell their soul to try to keep him but Stephen can't be bought by money or promises so off we go back to Montana Fiberglass. Stephen just had his 24th birthday on the third. It has been a good week with celebrations and stuff. I love birthdays even if they aren't mine. Lucas is now 2 months old and he is growing too big. He is 11lbs 5 oz now and 25 1/2 in long. He is in the 47th percentile in his weight and 97th percentile in his height so I think we are going to have a tall boy. And he is just learning so much too he is kicking more and talking more and smiling more he has also found a new friend...his thumb..we are trying to not start that habit but everytime our back is turn he has that lovely thumb in his mouth. We have started a night time routine with him at 8:30 it is bathtime and then jammy time and then book time and then bed time and it is working pretty well some nights are better than others kinda depends on what we are doing but it is slowly getting into motion. Well I am loving staying at home with him it is my joy to be able to spend everyday with my son at home and it is nice to have those times with him without stephen here too because we just have mother son talks and we snuggle in the bed and play with toys and it is just fun to have that special time with him.

One Month

Our baby was one month on Feb. 2. I can't believe it. Time has gone by way too fast. He is getting so big. You can definitely tell his looks have changed. He is starting to look more like his daddy than his mommy now. He is still a wonderful baby to have around. Not too fussy and most of the time very happy. He has been though fighting to go to sleep. I would think that would come along later but no my one month old is doing it. He likes to fight me for about an hour or two at night before he finally passes out. But it just teaches me patience and I just learn more and more about my baby. Stephen and Lucas have been having father and son reading times. It is really cute. He has kinda been on a Dr. Seuss reading kick. Lucas usually falls asleep but once in a while he listens and just stares at his daddy. He is still a big snuggler. And I absolutely love it. I hope he never grows out of it. He just wants to snuggle with mom and dad all the time and I just love feeling loved by my little boy.
We sold our car this week. Which was a huge blessing and will help us out a lot financially. So now we are back to a one car family which is fine with us because we have barely used the other car all winter anyway.
Also the last season of Lost started this week which we are quite excited about. I'm interested to get some questions answer. And with the first episode they already answered some questions but also got a few more new questions. So season 6 here we come...
Today I'm going to be starting the woman's bible study at my church. I'm pretty excited about it
. I am involved in the youth at the church and the children at the church but not the ladies at the church so I think it is going to be really fun to go and it is going to help me grow as a mom, wife, and lady.
