Hey everyone!
A lady on our loss of a twin bulletin boards gave us this link to a story on Parent's greif. This may help anyone who has lost a child, or help family and friends understand what the parents are going through. Check it out if you want or send it to someone who is greiving...

Our week in review.

We have had a busy week! Jared took me out to eat for my birthday on Sunday. We did most of our Christmas shopping and got to spend some quality time with Britni!
Matthew decided the last several days that he likes his Mom and Dad a lot. He is normally very social, but he has been a bit nervous around strangers lately. He is our entertainment. He now knows when he is being funny so he tries harder to make us laugh.
Nathan has started to laugh and will coo at us now. He really thinks I am funny! He has grown a lot in the last week!
Luke has been enjoying a few nice afternoons he can play outside. I am so thankful for preschool being three days a week. He gets very bored being stuck inside all day. He has learned so much in such a short amount of time. He has really grown up since starting in September. It has been a very positive thing for him after everything that happened last year.
Jared shot a 6 x 5 whitetail deer today. He had been all over southwest Nebraska looking for the perfect one, so he was very excited to finally get him.
I have been busy tending to kids. I enjoyed going to MOPS on Thursday. It is nice to get together with other Moms and share our war stories!
Thank you to Grandma Elaine for volunteering to babysit the boys tonight so we could get something done! It was a HUGE help! We love ya!

Jared's deer!

Quick Update

Sorry for the lack of updates lately. Things here have been a little chaotic.
Nathan just turned 2 months old this week. The time has just flown by. He already sleeps through the night most of the time and normally he is a happy baby.
I think we have all adjusted pretty fast to having a new baby in the house. We couldn't have made it through the last 2 months without our family behind us. Jenny has been a huge help picking Luke up from school and staying a couple days helping out. My parents have really helped by babysitting spur of the moment, and my Grandma Elaine is nice enough to let us have a night out by volunteering to babysit once in a while! We feel very blessed to have everyone's help!
Matthew has been running around for a little over a month now. He has such an awesome personality. He instantly lights up a room. He loves to be outside, and I wonder how we will get through the winter being stuck in the house!
Luke LOVES preschool! It has been a very positive experience for him. I still don't think I am old enough to be going to parent teacher conferences already, though!
Jared stays busy as always! He enjoys a little bit of hunting when he has the time, but if he isn't working he is usually home helping me with kids. He's such an awesome Dad and I feel lucky to have him!!
Thank you to everyone who keeps checking the blog out. If you get a chance leave us a comment to let us know you were here! Thanks!
Miss
