So I haven't blogged much.



There is really not a whole lot to report. Owen is now a little over a month old and doing awesome.  He sleeps great, and is starting to be more awake during the day. 

Ginny is growing so much in so many ways, her vocabulary, her ability, she can count to six, she whines like crazy, she is starting to have more of her own girly interests like ponies, fairies and princesses. 

Rw is growing up faster than I know how to keep up with. I think I am stuck on him being Ginny's age and so I don't always treat him like the inquisitive 3.5 year old boy he is. We are working on it. He is a sweet and helpful boy who I would not know what to do without. 

I am trying to figure out this whole keeping house and having three kids thing. When your living space triples and you lack the three sets of arms it requires to satisfy everyone's needs it gets a bit overwhelming. Occasionally I have those days where the house is somehow miraculously clean and in order, which make up for the days it's not. I am attempting to get into a workout routine big my best time is between 8 and 10 in the evening and Owen does not always cooperate. I did manage to run/jog (whatever you want to call it) a 13 minute mile. Luckily I have a treadmill to use or I wouldn't be doing any running. Unfortunately treadmill running is tedious so hopefully It gets easier soon so it won't seem like torture. 

Rich is almost done with another semester and then he will start another. He is super busy being an awesome dad, taking care of a decent yard with a small orchard, getting class work done and going to work. He gets home at 10 and then is awakened by his snugly children at 6. He also puts up with me and my craziness, so the poor guy gets stretched pretty thin. 

I will be spending part of next week at my parents for fair week and then will be starting a home preschool group with some sisters in the ward on Wednesdays in September. We will be meeting one day a week, and I am excited to have something forcing structure into my life. 

Well until the next time I feel guilty for my lack of posting....
