Here are 2 little things I wrote during the year that I didn’t want to leave out since this blog is basically our family journal.
As I sat and looked through all the pictures of the last 7 months (after trying to get a blog update in August) I couldn’t help but feel so incredibly grateful for the life that I have. Maybe that’s why I got so behind on my blog so that I could have this moment today to really truly realize just how incredibly blessed I am. Being mama to my 2 crazy boys is the best job but the hardest job and I let myself get bogged down by the whining, poopy diapers and million other things that go with being a mom and forget to really enjoy the million and one AMAZING things about not just being a mom but being Bryker and Keegan’s mom. I wish I was a better writer so that I could put into words what I am feeling right now. All I know is that today looking at pictures of the three people that are my life I know without a shadow of a doubt that my Heavenly Father loves me and has blessed me with more than I could ever realize! I am so incredibly thankful for my little eternal family and am going to try harder to be in the moment and love them with all I’ve got!
May 17th was such an exciting day-Aftyn was born AND……we found out we were expecting baby #3!! I had been sick with sinus stuff and finally went to the quick care where I got some medicine that they said could make me nauseous. Well it did but it felt a little too familiar so we stopped and got {5} pregnancy tests-thinking there is no way! But yes there definitely is a way and baby Darrington #3 will be joining our craziness in January 2015 and we couldn’t be more excited!
