Through the Good and the Bad

Jake and I knew that these last two semesters were going to be hard. Having opposite schedules, two babies, no family around, no money, we knew we were gonna have to hold onto our horses and just get through it. We didn't expect the car trouble, the $700 heating bill, the $10,000 I need in dental wok (all of this was in one week), the sick babies, the sick momma etc etc. I have to say that the past few months have been the most challenging in my life, and at the same time so rewarding.

I have two beautiful babies! They are growing and becoming their own people before my very eyes. Zoey loves to make us laugh and Logan charms us all with his smiles and cooing. I get so excited to come home from school and see them with their daddy who does such an amazing job with them.

I have a husband who is a super dad! He plays with them, changes poppy diapers, feeds them, takes them to the dr, takes them on errands, teaches them and loves them so much. I don't know if I could do what he does staying home all day with them, doing school full time and working all while still being a great husband! I love my husband more everyday. We knows that coming into the bedroom with hot chocolate and my favorite candy after a hard day will make it all better. He knows that after trying to rock Logan to sleep for hours that he better take over so I don't freak out. I love spending time with him whether its shopping, or cuddling up to watch CASTLE, or making cupcakes together. I am so thankful that this tough period in our lives has brought us closer together, and that he makes my life so joyous.

I know that one day my kids will be grown up and out of the house and Jake and I will financially be comfortable, and we will have date nights and as much nap times as we please and will be able to sleep in on Saturdays and stay out late and keep the house clean for more than 20 minutes. I also think that I will think back to this time in my life and miss it more than anything!! For that reason I am gonna really cherish every second that I can! (maybe not the root canals though!)

Logan 2 Months





How have I lived all my life without this little sweetie pie. It has been so much fun having him in our lives for the past 2 months. He does his very best to be a good baby for us, which is a huge help when we are busy pulling Zoey down off all the furniture!!

At Logan's 2 month appt he weighed 12 1/2 pounds and was 23 1/2 inches long which puts him in the 75% range still.

Logan is such a good little sleeper! We swaddle him up at 8:30 and he is often down till 5am the next morning. He will eat and snooze again.I KNOW!! WE ARE LUCKY! Some nights he gets up 2 times to eat, but he always go right back down. Being back at work, and being on my own at night and waking up for a feeding or 2 at night makes me pretty exhausted and so his good sleeping helps so so much!

Logan loves to talk and smile! He coos and coos for as long as you will socialize with him. I hope he is really outgoing and a go getter!

He also loves to cuddle.......which I LOVE, and he will snuggle up in the moby wrap and take a nap.
We just love him. I know he purposely came to our family to give us all kinds of joy and blessings.
