Catching up...







i know that i have not updated my blog in a while, but i have not had to time to do anything besides the essential stuff lately. however today, savannah is sleeping and kyle is watching the backyardigans, so i thought i would catch everyone up on us. First of all, savannah is doing great. she is a very sweet baby, and a great eater. i feel like i am always nursing her, but that is okay because she is growing so well. she is getting better at night too, she was only up twice last night and went right back to sleep after her feeding. i am not going to complain about that. i can't even tell you how much fun i am having making every color bow for her hair and dressing her fancy. she is just so cute!!next is kyle, he loves savannah. ( almost a little too much sometimes) he is very eager to hold her and kiss her. he thinks she is "so cute and so little". he wakes up in the morning wanting to know where "banna" (he cannot say v's, so he says b's instead)is. he really enjoyed his time with grandma and grandpa, and asks when they are coming every once in while. he is really is such a cute little boy!! now, matt is great. i think he really enjoyed having time off when his parents were here but i also think he was glad to get back into his work routine. he had a really big wildfire last week, but missed out on a huge house fire, so i think he is kinda eager for some action at work. he is also so helpful to me. after my "incident" of hemmoraging he took care of EVERYTHING (with deb deb's help) and really was sweet. he also has been doing a lot to help me get extra sleep too, like getting up with the kids early in the morning so i can sleep through one feeding or staying up late. he is awesome, and so cute. lastly, i am doing better. i feel like i am finally getting my energy back. i still get a little dizzy running after the kids a lot, but i definatley feel so much better. i didn't nurse kyle, so i was not so sure i was going to be able to nurse savannah, but it is going great this time around. she makes it easy because she is such a good eater too. i thought that i would have has a major meltdown being home with the kids by myself, but i have done really well. my house is not as clean as i would like, but everything is good. i feel really blessed that i am feeling so good, and everyone has been so generous and caring with everything that happened and with the arrival of fancy.here are some new pictures!

Cortney, I'm so glad you are feeling better - sounds like it got a little scary for a while. Thank goodness for family eh! Savannah is adorable. Does she look like Kyle did when he was a baby?

seeing the pictures makes me miss you all very much. I have very fond memories of giving Kyle chocolate pudding for breakfast and watching as he used both hands to eat it. I can see the change in Savannah - she does look bigger. Keep up the good work. Your housework will always be there, but your children will grow up before you know it. Miss you.
