I was pretty optimistic about beginning life as a foursome but reality strikes fast. Jared has never been mean or aggressive towards Spencer but I am definitely learning he wants more attention which can be hard at times especially when feeding the baby. And Spencer is a little fussy especially in the evenings. Jared was such a good baby that I'm learning what a more typical baby is like. Not that Spencer isn't good it's just that he cries where Jared only did when hungry, tired, and needed a change of diaper. There have been overwhelming and frustrating times but the pay days are there and worth every hardship. Jared a few times when I sing him songs before bed, has put his arms around my neck while he is laying down and just held me while we sing the song together. Moments like this make being a mom worth it. I love it and I'm excited for each day I'm blessed with these sweet little boys:)

Life on Our Own
Thanks to my mom and Cherie I've had help adjusting to being a mother to two. But that all came to an end this past Thursday when Grammy Meservy left. Like my mom, Cherie kept my house clean and kept us fed and entertained Jared by taking him out on many excursions. Like I told her when she left, I'm not always the easiest person to deal with but I appreciate her love and patience with me and even more I appreciate the love she has for my two boys! Thank you so much Cherie, I really am lucky to have you as my mother-in-law!

Boy(S)! That's still crazy to me. Seriously though, please take me up on the offer to take a break sometime and let me take Jared or even just come over and distract him for a while. When we get back from Arizona, we really need to plan a get together.
