Hermit Life

After Texas, the rest of April was pretty quiet.  We mostly stayed at home and tried to survive the day.  Seriously, I feel like all I do is feed people.  Feed the baby, make breakfast, feed the baby, make a snack, feed the baby, make lunch, etc etc etc.  When I had Sam, someone told me that the days (and especially the nights) are long, but the years are short. I probably laughed when I heard that, but it is SO true!  The days and months after Eli was born were so exhausting but I blinked and almost 3 months have gone in a flash!  Ahh!  Slow down, PLEASE?!


Watching sports with Dad.


The budding artist still in his pajamas.  I find Austin just like this almost every day.


New at 6 weeks, real smiles!  The best reward a sleep-deprived parent could ask for.


"Cheese!" from the future BYU Cougar.


A rare peaceful moment.  
No one loves Eli more than his big brothers.  Except maybe his mom & dad.


One afternoon, I ran into the other room to grab some more diapers.  Upon my return, I found Eli with chocolate all over his face.  What?!  Eli, how did you get chocolate all over your face?


Oh.  That's how.  Thank you, Austin.


Bathtime!  I admit they are few and far between, but he does clean up nicely :)




Our first walk as a family of five!  


We are now a spectacle wherever we go.


After a particularly LONG night where all the boys took turns waking up I thought to myself, Agh is this all worth it?


The answer?  Yes.  Yes it is.
