January





Levi and his best buddy Austin







January passed by in one big blur. Between all of us having colds, Jackson having colic, and Jason having more work than time to do it, I honestly don't remember much.
But still life is good. I love my boys and am so proud of them. Jackson is healthy and growing bigger every day. As of today he weighs 11lbs and is 23" long. He is a big boy and has the best smiles.
The colic has been really really hard. He doesn't have a medium cry just a full out high volume scream. This has been a huge adjustment for us since Levi was such a quiet baby.
I sometimes feel like I could just scream right along side him...
The Lord has been good though and is giving me daily doses of HIS strength and patience.
Jax does have good days and I truly LOVE them.
Keeping Levi occupied on these cold winter days is a challenge. We've been spending Tuesday mornings at music time for toddlers and on Thursdays hanging out with my friend Kathleen and her boy Austin. We take the boys to the old elementary school gym to run around and then take them swimming! They love it and it's good for them to get the energy out :)

They're both getting so big!!!!! And I can't wait to see Jax smile in person :) When I come out in March I might have to take them both off your hands for an afternoon so you can go have some time off :)

I'm so sorry Jax has been feeling unwell, and I'll be praying that the colic passes quickly and he settles down, and that God keeps you sane in the meantime. You have my deepest admiration honey...you're such a good mom! I love you tons and tons and miss you so much.
