TAKE A NAP!

I'm back! I took a sick leave from blogging there for a while and from pretty much everything else! I am feeling lots better now and wanted to post an update. I was at my mom's house in Wyoming for 3 1/2 weeks while she took care of me because I got super sick with baby number two! We had Thanksgiving at my moms and we had Christmas at our house with Josh's family. Both were great! Time with my family tends to be that way ;) Mckayla is STILL potty training but doing better all the time. I am trying to get back into the swing of things and trying to get out and do normal things. I apologize if I seem like I dropped off the face of the earth there for a while and didn't talk to you much if at all. Anyway, here are some pictures from Christmas...
