A Week With Betty

I will be really honest here. I was looking forward to spending the week away from home.

Sometimes I feel extremely taken advantage of here. I cook, clean, shop, do laundry and work a full time job. I do all this while Wes looks at his phone.

Holding a sleeping baby is a blessing. Betty on is a very easy baby. She sleeps, eats and cries a little.

Did I cook? Yes. Did I clean? Yes. Did I do laundry? Some. But for the most part, I felt like I was on vacation.

Teddy loves the baby. He gets very nervous when she cries.

Callie is a natural and Spencer is doing a great job taking care of both of them.

Her bumb fits in my hand.

i came home to an empty fridge and got back to work.

I start my last semester of school tomorrow. I'm looking forward to getting it behind me. I want to o stay home, I want to bake bread, sew and read a novel. I love what I do at work, but behavior management is exhausting and I'm tired of pretending that testing matters.

Counting Blessing

No extrem cold weather yet...

Sweet babies from heaven...

Safe journeys

Best of 2024

I like to reflect at the end of the year. To count my blessing. To recall the beautiful things I have seen. .

Ending the year with a new baby is the best. Last year, when we were in Florida I told Callie that my goal was for her to have a baby. Although she informed me that I can't make goals for her, she came through. She is a natural at mothering and Spencer is awesome at being a father.

Having Richard back in Idaho, even for a few weeks, is such a blessing. Having him get out of a toxic relationship is the cherry on top.

My goal to improve temple atendece has been good. Maybe not easy, but good.

Celebrating with my family, all of my family, was a blessing I didn't see coming. It's been good to connect with my sisters. It's been a journey.

And here are some of the beautiful walks we have enjoyed.
