Things to Remember

We have had quite the past few weeks. First off - Anson's cousin (who is one of my best friends)...just got home from her mission. We got to go up to her homecoming in Pocatello to see her and celebrate with the family! Right when we got to Pocatello - we found out that my Grandpa Clark had passed away just a few hours earlier. He had been battling through heart problems, dimentia, and a few strokes for the past few years and was ready to go be with my Grandma Clark again! I was grateful for an amazing funeral service where I was reminded of the Grandpa that I had known so many years ago (before all of his health challenges) and where we were able to honor such a wonderful man! Here is the only picture that we got but I think it turned out pretty good!

In all of this craziness - I started teaching again, Anson started school, Shaefer started going to a babysitter, and we are so grateful for any second we have together. Shaefer has become very spoiled. I vowed I would never rock my babies to sleep - and even though he can go to sleep on his own, I rock him because that is more time I have with my baby. It is amazing to me how much my little guy can grow in such a short time! He is now in the 70% for height and weight (I never thought that would happen with how he started out)! Here are some pictures of my little chunker!



We are slowly getting use to being so busy but we feel so blessed to have everything working out so well!

I am sorry about your Grandpa, though from what you said it sounds like he lived a full wonderful life. Your baby is big! You weren't kidding. He is so cute...I understand and relate to the rock your baby thing or other things you do, even though you said you wouldn't, us moms have to do what we can when we can. Miss you
