January 2018

We had a great start to our new year! On new years Eve my brother Chad's family had us over for a NYE party. We all had fun playing games, staying up late, and eating delicious food and treats! Except Olivia wasn't happy and cried most of the night. I later found out she was constipated and final had a huge explosion in her diaper that night. Just keeping it real. The next day we went on a hike with our good friends the Whites. The kids all did well and sweet Olivia slept most of the time in the baby carrier. Everyone has been healthy and we couldn't ask for more. Except probably some better sleep but I don't think that ever comes back once you have children. We set some goals individually and as a family so hopefully we can all be working on being stronger and better. Sophia already hit one of her goals of learning to ride a bike and also Bailey started learning piano. The boys started basketball and have both really enjoyed playing with friends and learning new skills. Jon is busy with work and his business is growing which is such a blessing. I haven't had any nursing issues and Olivia is doing well and sleeping better through the night. We are very blessed and mostly just grateful for the gospel of Jesus Christ that comforts us and gives us hope when we are going through trials. Heres to another awesome year!
