Upload...maybe overload.

So this is going to be a picture blog so far behind compared to number of pictures on my phone :
 Love this binkie sometimes super helpful other times cumbersome but more helpful than not:
 One week old:
 Blessing day.
We were able to have the baby blessing at our home,you know, we are pretty tight with the bishop, so it wasn't hard to get approval. ;)
 Nonna came that weekend too. She was such a help with the kids.
We were also blessed with other family there to join the special moment who were conveniently here for a football game...well some of them anyway. 


 Grandma time:

 Ain't this the truth?:
 Totally zonked out :
Little miss insisted babe have glasses.
 I know we have a picture of Boo doing this to little miss too but it's not readily available on my phone to add to this post.

When did little miss grow up so much? She looks so old in this picture:
 Lots of snuggles, she loves sleeping like this:
I loved general conference this weekend, more than usual. Usually, I don't love it. it's 8 hours of fighting to stay awake and being distracted by other things and missing most of it. But there were definitely talks that I loved and so many I need to listen to again (or for the first time...I still was distracted or dealing with yelling and screaming children). My favorite talk was Elder Holland's about mothers. So beautiful. 
I loved the last part:
"To all mothers in every circumstance, including those who struggle—and all will—I say, “Be peaceful. Believe in God and yourself. You are doing better than you think you are. In fact, you are saviors on Mount Zion, and like the Master you follow, your love ‘never faileth [Moroni 7:46; see also 1 Corinthians 13:8].’” I can pay no higher tribute to anyone."

It's hard being a mom. In fact there have been way too many moments were I feel like i'm barely staying afloat, and moments I haven't liked how I was parenting but I do love being mom. I love my children so very much. 

Ok all done! :)
