Bath Time

Just lounging in the tub

Michael loves playing with Tim!

Tim loves helping clean Michael!

Let it Snow! Let it Snow! Let it Snow!

It snowed! A lot!

This is when Jon first got home.

This is when we left for Pleasant Grove.

So much snow!!!

Jon shoveled my parent's sidewalks and the boys helped!

Lots of snow!

This is how much snow was on Mom's car when she got home.

And this is what happens when the sun roof opens. 

We loved all the snow and the laughs that went with it!

Busted!

I caught Tim climbing on top of Michael's crib tent, AGAIN! I also forgot to zip the zipper during one of Michael's naps and Tim decided to crawl in there with him. He was jumping on the bed, which of course Michael loved, and decided to try jumping on the baby. I got there just in time...

Not gonna lie it drives me a little crazy, but I'm glad he loves his brother.

5 Months!

Michael turned 5 months old yesterday!!! I can't believe it's almost been half a year since he's joined our family! He is almost sitting up by himself, rolling over if he really wants to, super smiley and happy, and a really big boy (If you couldn't tell by the pictures)!

He also likes to push himself backwards in the walker, which is really funny to watch, because I don't think he understands that he is the one making himself move.

He is definitely a mama's boy. He has to be able to see me all the time or he makes a huge pouty face. This is probably why he hasn't slept through the night for a us yet. I can only pray that it will happen this month, for both Jon and my sanity. 5-6 times a night is an awful lot to get out of a warm bed, don't ya think?

We love this goof ball so much! I can't wait to see him during his first Thanksgiving and Christmas! Will he be crawling? We'll see!

November 9th

I am so grateful for the moisture that we are receiving.

November 8th

 I'm grateful for baby smiles that can make even the worst days a little brighter!

Grateful

So I know I'm a little late starting, but here's my catching up:
1. I'm grateful for the frequent calls from my mother-in-law and she laughs and talks to the boys

2. I'm grateful that I live near family for support.

3. I'm grateful for the chance to vote.

4. I'm grateful for Tom and Jerry, so I can actually relax and not worry about Tim getting into trouble.

5. I'm grateful that we have access to clean drinking water.

6. I'm grateful that my husband is so knowledgeable and can teach me. 

7. I'm grateful that my brother is going to serve a mission and be an example for my sons.

I have so much to be grateful for and I'm so excited to focus on my blessings this month!

If we have faith in Jesus Christ, the hardest as well as the easiest times in life can be a BLESSING.
