Life gets so busy!

I started this blog in hopes of writing down the funny, good, bad, happy, sad, and every other emotion in between when it comes to my family! I've become so busy and overtaken by the day-to-day duties of my wonderful Husband, 3 children under 3 years old, a cat, a Dog, dishes, laundry, cooking, bills, pregnancy and everything else that life entails that I've forgotten to stop and relish in these moments!

So here goes:

My Husband, Jeremy, is an amazing Partner, Father, Hard-working Man of God! He truly lifts me up when I am weak, reminds me to be content in our here & now, keeps me sane, and most importantly, he loves me despite my MANY flaws! He's a great sounding board who supports my incessant research and gab fests about everything from pregnancy and delivery to vaccines and vitamins! He's the love of my life and I still can't believe I get to be his Wife! This January 26th marks our 5th year Anniversary! During our fifth year od wedded bliss we'll have 4 children, 3 pets (technically I'm counting the tank of fish as 1 pet), 2 paid-off vehicles, and 1 roof over our heads to be thankful for!

Jacobi is now 3 years old and while he can be rough and tumble like any boy, he loves to be the comforter! He's fascinated with letters, dinosaurs, and painting with his hands. He prays for us when we're sick or injured believing God will heal! He can count to 10 and knows random letters, although colors are still sketchy. He thoroughly enjoys running and can't get enough time outside. He's an absolute blessing and we're so thankful for our Cobi!

Micah is just 3 months shy of being 2 years old! He's got an incredibly sensitive heart and while he doesn't cuddle too often, it melts your heart when he does. He's learning more and more words everyday and constantly surprising us with his budding vocabulary. His favorite past time as of now is playing with his big lions, elephants, and giraffes! He's so patient with his little sister, letting her massage his head almost daily. He too loves running and playing outside as much as possible. He's our best eater and can clear his plate 2 or 3 times each meal.

Shaelyn is 9 months old! She's been in our arms now as long as she was in my womb. Such a bittersweet time! She's been crawling since 6 months and can cruise around the furniture with ease. She's waving, kissing, high-fiving, and saying basic words like "Mama" "Bye Bye" and "Hi". She's a cuddler and a lover! Still nursing although getting better at taking a bottle. She's also a good eater who loves grapes, carrots, green beans, crackers, and stealing whatever food or beverage her older Brothers have! She's sleeping in her own bed now & doing so well....no cry it out for that little love-bug! She's been a much needed addition to our household!

We're currently 9 weeks pregnant with our next child! We won't be finding out the gender of this baby until D-day! Cobi thinks Boy and although we'll love whatever, we're hoping another Girl to even it out! I guess we'll see come July!
