Baby B

Our 2nd child, Baby B, was born the beginning of this month (if you notice I am trying to be more vague it's because I need to start doing it or go private and I know that going private can be difficult for some of our followers so I am trying to be flexible so if you want more details please put in a comment with your email and I will contact you). He is such a sweet little boy and a really good baby. There have been moments of gas problems due to his mother's need of chocolate and a concern or two about his eating habits but overall we have slowly, semi-adjusted to this new-world experience. I had an easy labor and delivery. Everything went as planned. Joe flew in on Wednesday night, Toddler G had his birthday on Thursday, I had the baby on Friday, and we had the baby blessing on Monday. It was a really chaotic week.

I did find time to relax with both children with the help of my parents as well as Joe's parents and family. Toddler G is slowly adjusting to Baby B. I show you the pictures of Toddler-G hugging Baby B (I don't know how long I can do these acronyms) instead of him pulling on his limbs or kind of smothering him. Like I said he is adjusting and he is learning his limits.

We are ALL now in Tucson. It was a long 2 months, or should I say it was a long 7 months, in Price. We are still wondering whether going to Tucson was a good idea. It has seemed that this move has pulled us apart as a family for so long which has been difficult, especially for Toddler-G. The first two days here in Tucson Toddler G wouldn't let daddy go without a fight. He still cries to see daddy go but not so much and the most common times for him to cry for daddy are when I am nursing or when he is in trouble (as if I never did that lol). Other things that have been negative is changing our insurance and then Joe's bike getting stolen. Yes it happened. I can't believe it happened. I felt so violated when I found out this Monday that it was stolen. I could not even nap that day due to my frustration. And then today I am looking out the window and I saw a guy bike into the parking lot with a bike that looked just like Joe's (at least from a distance). I think that I am going crazy because I am becoming suspicious of everyone in this city. Maybe this is what I need, little small-town Utah girl toughening up and not trusting anyone, at least until I get to know them... I hope. Things should work out fine, these are only the negative things. I am sure by Christmas I will be joyful about living in Tucson perhaps because of time or the fact that my "winter" will be perfect weather.

This is me minutes before I went in to the Hospital to be induced. Yes I am small but it's because of a lack of fluids.

Baby B at 2 weeks 5 days. I have skinny little kids. He has distinctly long fingers and toes.

Mommy and kids one day after the birth. It took a few visits before Toddler G warmed up to Baby B.

One big happy family. This is the Baby blessing done in my parents' home due to how young Baby B is and the fact that we wanted to do it in Price rather than Tucson.

Toddler G hugging Baby B. It was really cute to watch until G decided to try and roll over him or something. Like I said G is good one moment and the next is naughty.
