I have been wanting to post about the new addition to our family for a month but I wanted to include photos.
And I want to blog about everything that has happened for the past month. But with photos.
So I will just blog about random things and hopefully Ican will blog about Luke soon- he deserves his own blog post.
Soccer:
I enjoy it. I like the boys being a part of a team and learning to work together. I love cheering from the sidelines. I especially love how tired the boys are from running for an hour that they go right to sleep without a fight. I don't love the rush of eating dinner, getting to soccer practice, and then rushing through the bedtime routine. But one negative in all the positive, I'm sure I will be a soccer mom for a while.
Schedule or lack of:
I have forgotten how having a new baby messes up your schedule/routine. I mean, I remembered how you adjust but I forgot how hard it is for me. I feel like I'm a pretty easy-going person and I have recently learned that Ilike need a schedule. I forgot how I don't really go anywhere with a baby that takes me us away from the house for more than about an hour or 2. My sleep is even more ridiculous than usual. I forgot how much I like sleep. I am a little scared for summer and the lack of schedule that comes with it.
Grateful:
I am so grateful for family.
The family I was born into, so many came (and all my siblings wanted to come) to celebrate Adam's baptism and Luke's baby blessing.
And the not-so little family of boys I share with Bryan, those boys are pretty darn cute.
And my ward family. I don't like being the center of attention. I prefer to hide in the background, hide in Nursery. But us having a baby has brought some attention. In our ward the last baby born before Luke was 17mo. And no one is pregnant. And we had our 5th boy. And so many people have offered to help. Watch boys. Meals. Clean (!!!- I know crazy that I didn't take them up on it right?!). And just asking how things are going. And to look at him. It has been nice to have so many concerned about us, especially with our parents not an hour away anymore.
I don't really have anything that we have been "doing" or anywhere we have gone to report on. We are learning how to be a family of seven(!) and enjoying all the company we have had/have.

Love you lady. Its good to record stuff while you are thinking about it. pictures or not. We loved spending a little time with you guys this weekend. Thanks for inviting us. We love your guts.
I still think you are easy going! I'd be a basket case right now, wishing I was as go-with-the-flow as you and Ann. Heavens, I am a basket case wishing I was as calm and collected as you, without newborn and one, almost two, year old.
