Family Update

Well, I guess it's been over a week since I've posted anything, so I thought I'd just give you a quick update on what we've been up to lately.

First off, I have the best husband ever! It seems it's taking me a while to adjust to having a new baby....so after a long day at work, Aaron calls to see if I need anything (dinner, groceries, etc.), and after another hour of running my errands, he finally gets home (and normally to a messy house). After he changes his clothes, he immediately starts cleaning and preparing dinner. He usually doesn't get to even sit down until about 7pm. I am so lucky to have a husband that is happy to help around the house. I don't know what I'd do without him!

Spring is finally making it's way to Rexburg. Don't get me wrong, it's still pretty cold out (30º average), but the snow has started to melt and we can see grass peeking through. Also, my flowers have broken through the frozen ground....and that is about the most exciting thing I've seen in quite a while! Since I realize it's going to be at least another month before I can work outside in my yard, I decided that we'd plant some flowers inside so the kids could watch them grow. I have forgotten just how much I love the smell of dirt and the anticipation of the flowers that will soon be popping out of the ground. I just love it! I told Aaron that if we live in Rexburg forever, I have to have a greenhouse! That would sure help me get through the long cold winters...and give me a constant reminder of spring.

Other than that, not much happening here. We have spring break this week, but no plans of going anywhere fun. I was really hoping Aaron and I could get away for the weekend...maybe go to SLC or something, but I don't think it's going to work out. Also, Peyton is now over 4 weeks old! Can you believe it?!? She hasn't been sleeping very well, which means we haven't either. Every night it gets harder to wake up with her....I'm already dreaming of the night she'll sleep for more than 3 hours at a time.
