Momma's Boy and Real Joy


Lately, my sweet boy hates falling asleep on his own. He will cry and cry FOREVER in his crib and then the second I pick him up and snuggle him, hes out like a light. Or, as soon as I put him next to me on my bed, out. Most of the time I love this about him, because I am quite the snuggler myself and I absolutely love that my baby wants to cuddle with me. Other times, when we aren't at home, this habit is quite the curse. But since he's the only little I have right now, I will savor the snuggle days since I probably wont be able to do this with my next ones..right?

The past little while I have realized how joyful my life is. Logan and Landon bring me more happiness than I ever knew I could have. Living here in san diego for the past year and being close with both of our families has been such a blessing. We've had the wonderful opportunity to live with both the Moore's and the Nielsen's. I have gotten closer with each member of my family through this. I don't even know if I could count on one hand the close friends I have that aren't my family. Stephanie, Nikki, Alana, and Savannah are my absolute best friends. These girls are all so amazing, and I love the relationship I have with each of them. Dyanna, my mom, and myself all went to lunch last week and had such a fun time, how many people get to say that? Kyle, Jensen, and Tanner have been great friends from the very start of mine and Logan's relationship, but over the past year Hunter and Brandon have also become two of my best friends. I am working on a slideshow for Hunter's graduation and the reality of him leaving for BYU and going on his mission is really coming fast. I can't believe how much I will miss that goof ball :) Brandon is the funniest, wittiest, smartest person I know. I could talk to him for 1 hour and feel like I learned more in that one conversation than I did at 4 years of High school.


All in all, I have absolutely nothing to complain about. I get to spend so much time with the people that I love, its such a blast. I see my mom almost daily, and the love she and Dyanna have for Landon is one of the biggest blessings in my life, and his. I love what I have, and who I have in my life. I can't even imagine it getting better than this.

My baby is like that too. He sleeps in his crib for half the night and with us the other half. I only complain about there not being enough room! He may be little, but he takes the whole bed!
