I have been terrible at keeping up on this blog. Maybe because most people who read it, read all about our lives on Facebook. But, I will update it, just to update it. LOL
Landon is doing great! He is so much fun to have around, brings light and joy to everyday. He loves to play outside and explore out there. He LOVES to play with other kids and be social. He is also very short, he finally fell off the charts at his 2 year checkup...but it seems he might have put some length on his legs in the last month. His 18 month pants are FINALLY getting shorter.
He is saying a lot of new words everyday. He loves to count to 10. He gets stuck on 3, 4 though and needs a push over there, then he gets stuck on 8 too. But I think he is doing awesome for his age! He LOVE to read, and be read to sometimes. He really likes to flip through the books on his own, and mimic what he has memorized and jabber his own stories along. He loves to play with cars...his favorite thing to do is to crash them...over...and over....and over. Mommy gets a little over it after a few minutes.
He has recently started calling me Momma. This is something my little heart has been WAITING for and my heart melts every. single. time. He will call Momma! When he needs something, and it is just the most precious thing I have ever heard. I almost cry every time he says it.
Our family is doing pretty well. I would be lying if I said GREAT...it has been a trying year...a trying year for our family. A lot of personal struggles that most people don't know about. But I'm so thankful that we have held on to each other through it all. I'm so thankful for loving Heavenly Father that knows us, and inspires us and pushes us to learn and grow.
As far as adding to our family, that is still something both of us really desire. We have gotten some bad news, in that our insurance doesn't cover ANY infertility. But we are hoping this summer to go see an RE that has a sliding scale for appointments, and just see if we could possibly afford to get some help to have one more. I would feel SO blessed to just have one more. I often feel SO guilty that my heart longs for one more. I have this beautiful little boy, who is the center of my universe and who LOVES his momma...but moments like today when I had to hold back tears in a baby store make me feel like I am so ungrateful. All I can do is just HOPE and PRAY that Heavenly Father will bless us with one more...
Other then that life just marches on! We celebrated our 10th anniversary in February which was a nice milestone to reach! So grateful for the man that I share my life with. We are both flawed and imperfect...but we love each other. And want to make each other happy!
It would be good for me to continue blogging...there has just been some roadblocks for me. I feel like people will judge me for wanting another baby...I feel like people think we shouldn't want another baby just because of our financial situation...I feel like people are sick of me talking about infertility. But it's worth it to keep talking about! So many people are going through it...and we need to stop feeling alone!
Anyway! That's my update in a nutshell! :)
