"It is within our families that we learn unconditional love, which can come to us and draw us very
close to God's love. It is within families that values are taught and character is built,"

-Elder M. Russell Ballard

Welcome Home Zaden!!

Zaden Ryan Andrus is finally home with us!! He is such a blessing in our lives. Lea is totally in love with him. She loves to give him kisses and to hug him. She is still a little rough, but is such a great helper when it comes to Zaden. I'm so happy that she is adjusting so well!! 

The delivery went very well. It was completely different than the first time. He arrived on his due date, August 5th, 2013.  He was 7 lbs 9 oz and 21 inches. We were very surprised at how long he was! 





He is such a joy in our lives. Having two kids are home is so rewarding. I am able to see how Lea is adjusting to the Zaden and how her love for him grows more and more every day. It is truly amazing to watch! Having two kids are home is a little crazy at times. Instead of being able to clean the house in an hour, it takes like four because you need to stop to feed, get lunch ready, change a diaper, feed again, change another diaper, etc. But that's ok because there is nothing more rewarding than being a mother! I'm truly blessed to have Lea and Zaden in my life. They are teaching me so much!

30 weeks!!

I really can't believe how fast this pregnancy has gone!! I only have a little less than 10 weeks to go and I'm getting very anxious. I feel like there is lots of do before he gets here; especially with our new home. Other than that, I've felt very good. Lea definitely keeps me busy. We are trying to talk to her a lot about being a big sister. She knows that I have a baby growing in my belly. She kisses it and touches it, but other than that I don't think she really has a full comprehension of what is going to happen. We got her some "Big Sister" books, put she rather read other ones... She'll get it eventually!!
