Quite a lot has taken place since I wrote our last post. Mainly we have another son! Lucas John was born November 3, 2012! He is now over 4 months old and a true joy just like his older brother Noah! Our boys are 17 months apart! Yes, it is definitely keeping my days busy of scheduling, nursing and changing diapers. I love it though, and would not have it any other way. I cannot wait for our boys to be playmates and buddies!
I am now a full time stay at home mom! I love it, and wonder how anyone can balance working full time and being a mom, and taking care of their home. It keeps me so busy! Once in a while I do get out to sub which is nice both to have adult talk for the day and also to make some extra money.
We are also officially a van family. Nick and I ate our words when we said "we will never buy a van". We bought a 2011 Toyota Sienna, and as Nick's brother put it, "It's just too convenient not to love." Well said! I love pushing a button and watching Noah run to climb in and play with the seats. It has made life easier with two little boys!
Time is going faster with two little boys to raise. There are times when the days go by slowly until nap time, but overall I look at my boys and see how fast they are growing. It is so bitter sweet. A part of me wants them to stay small forever and it is hard to see them grow and change. It is so sweet to watch them grow and to be their mamma though.
These are a few of my favorite things about Noah:
I love how you are starting to talk more and more.
I love how you say Kookka
I love how you call our names again and again just to hear us respond to you!
I love your hugs when I ask you if you know that Mamma loves you.
I love how you grab your pacifier out of your bed just to get a few sucks in.
I love how you love tomatoes!
I love how excited you get when you get to watch Cars.

I love you so much Noah!
These are a few of my favorite things about Lucas:
I love your smile, it lights up the room!
I love how you smile when you see me, it melts my heart.
