.... Which by the way, I love that show. Landon won't watch it with me. Boo.
But the only title I could think of this week was that. Because I just wrote A LOT of stuff about us.
Lando:
Ran 16 miles on Saturday. Training for your first marathon is fun because every Saturday you run a new longest. He finished listening to Killing Regan on his run and started Harry Potter again. I'm sure he was smiling from ear to ear! He really loves Doctor Perry and is learning so much from him, both medicine and life knowledge. He has this incredible ability to make each one of us happy--its such a blessing for our family. He went to the temple. He set up and took me on a double date with our friends, the Beazers. He's currently making jax laugh like no one else can. We love him!
Becs:
My week was really busy. We fed the missionaries on Monday, we had a relief society activity on Tuesday that I helped with. I helped run the Cub Scout Pack meeting on Wednesday (scouts is crrazzzy people!). I went to a baby shower for a wife of a resident in Landon's program thursday. Date night Friday and then on Saturday our ward put together dinners at various people houses. We hosted the Finns, Durrants and the Jensens. It was really really fun! Hopefully they were okay with the tight head quarters. I held a ward play group at my house this week too--I hope it can continue.
My test results continue to come back from the reproductive endocrinologist office. This doctor here was pretty sure I didn't have PCOS when we first started working with him, but I think he is slowly starting to change his mind. Unrelated, my vitamin D levels are really low, #spokane. Who knows what will happen in the next few months. But all we can do is do our part, act, and then put the rest in the Lords hands. I have full confidence that we are exactly where the Lord wants us to be and we are heading in the direction we are suppose to go as we continue to add to our little family. And thats such a great feeling!
Jax:
He has really struggled lately. Its been hard on both of us, trying to understand whats going on. I talked to both grandmas and got their advice on Monday afternoon. We put Ty down and did a special FHE with just Jax. It was maybe my most powerful mommy moment to date. We talked about things that make him happy and things that he is struggling with. Daddy gave him a blessing. It was sweet. After the blessing I asked Jax if he wanted to talk to us about anything else. He then talked to us for close to an hour. Non stop talking. Just about everything. School, church, friends, people, etc. I learned so so so much about him. I think he is a home body and a family body. I love both those things about him so much. I love being a mom. And I love being a mom to these boys. Motherhood takes a lot out of you. And this week im just realizing how much emotionally motherhood can take out of you. I've mostly dealt with the physical aspects of motherhood thus far. Both can be exhausting! Either way, I never feel more empowered than when I am working with God, Landon, (and grandmas) to raise my kids. It is such a blessing to be a mother!
Ty:
He really is understanding so much and expressing himself even better. I feel like he almost said a few words this week. Ty is a goof ball. I mean an absolute cheeser. But on the flip side, he also has this spidey sense. He knows when someone needs help. Like today me and him were playing legos while Daddy and Jaxy were home teaching. I put my head on the ground and closed my eyes. He came over and kissed my cheek, patted my head, ran and grabbed his blanket and then brought it to me (and stuffed it in my mouth). I love that he can sense peoples emotions and wants to help. He also will pat anyone who is crying or sad. He wants people to be happy and he wants people to be together. Like we all have to be sitting at the table when we are eating or he will scream. Oh his screaming.... oh well... Hes the bom dot com.
