Our crazy life

Ryo is now 4 months old! Having 2 kids and working full time has definitely rocked my world. I have not had time to do much besides keep everyone clean and fed. Some days I don’t think I even do that! I passed my Pediatric Nurse Practitioner boards back in October and am still looking for the perfect job (because it really does exist).

We are settling into our new house, but there are still MANY projects to be done. One of our reasons for moving from our house in Sugarhouse is that we felt like we were always doing a project. Well, what do you know, I have a long list ready to go for Tyson and we have only been here for a little over 2 months. This house will be perfect in about 20 years!

Here are some highlights from the past 4 months:

Ryo-1 month. Looking a little skinny...

Ryo 2 months. Starting to fatten up...

Ryo 3 months. Fat and happy.

Ryo 4 months. Mia calls him "chub man".

He is chubby and I love it!

Mia and Ryo were baptized together at Good Shepard Lutheran Church on January 29th. It was so special.

At 4:30 am the next morning, on January 30th, my sweet Grandma Garwood passed away. Luckily, my parents left the night after the baptism, so my mom was right by her side when she passed. We will miss her dearly but she is finally at peace with my grandpa.

We are slowly adjusting to our new baby, our new house and, hopefully soon, a new job for me!
