Everything comes in threes. When anything bad happens something good also happens. And my life has been about change lately. Last summer my grandmother found out she had a cancerous tummor in her brain. She survived therapy and treatment and the doctors thought she was fighting it. About a month ago she took a turn for the worse and started sleeping most of her days away. She slowly lost speech and other cognitive capabilities. Then she slowly slipped to the other side about two weeks ago. She was ready to be on the other side with her husband and other family that preceded her in death. So, this put my parents primarily in charge of everything. It has been a whirlwind for me just trying to help my parents arrange everything and get everything squared away. Who knew it is so much work when someone passes away. The services turned out beautiful and all my family was able to be there in salt lake city. I stayed for a little longer and had a long overdue visit with my cousin. We had a lot of fun visiting and playing games. She has two boys about the same ages, and mine did not want to go home, they had so much fun.
So, with this series of events leaves my grandma's house open. So Matt and I jumped at the opportunity and are going to rent her house. It is more fit to our family and with our house in the financial state it is in, we saw this opportunity as an answer to our prayers. So Kaleb can't wait to live in our "bigger" house!
So the third and most exciting change is .... I am Pregnant! Yes, we are surprised and thrilled to be welcoming our third child into our family. Kaleb has been excited from the day we told him. But he already has a lot of questions I am not sure of how to answer already, but so far so good. Matt and I feel so blessed that Heavenly Father sees fit to put into our care yet another sweet spirit into our family unit!
Amongst all the chaos, my boys have grown closer to each other. Everyday they seem to get along and play together a little better. They have so much fun laughing and making faces at each other. Kaleb has had to learn how to be a good example to his brother and Ethan has started copying everything he does. Ethan really tries to keep up with his brother and someday he will! But to add to the craziness we had a round of the flu come through our house. And thanks to my pregnant self I could not clean up the messes without adding to it, so poor Matt has had to belly up to the bar and clean up some things he normally would not come close to with a ten foot pole. And to be completely honest, Matt has been very supportive, loving, and understanding through the whole thing. I really could not ask for a better husband.
Wow, with that being said, and you all up to date (I think that is all), I am going to bed, I am exausted as usual and have more long crazy days ahead. so tah tah for now!
