"I promise you, I'm always there. When your heart is filled with sorrow and despair. I'll carry you when you need a friend, you'll find my footprints in the sand." -Leona Lewis, Footprints in the Sand

WOW! Time Flies!

I realized that it has been quite a while since I have updated the blog and decided that it was time! It seems time has flown by with how busy our life has been. So I will do a short update on us all and post some recent pictures.

Logan- Still in school, has started his Mechanical Engineering program! He is so excited to be making progress on his chosen career and makes the classes a little more bearable! :) We are so proud of him and his hard work, working 30 hours a week and going to school full time!  Logan just started a local biggest loser contest and has high expectations of making all his personal goals and winning the competition, so far he is doing really well and is very motivated!

Tracie- Is staying at home with Jake which I love and is currently pregnant.  This pregnancy has been very different than the last one.  For starters, I have had pretty bad morning sickness from about 6 weeks until about 14 weeks. That has been a challenge, but I like to look at it as a blessing in disguise; my goal this pregnancy was to not gain so much extra or unneeded weight, because I have been so sick, I have lost my appetite for a lot of foods I used to enjoy and don't feel the need to eat junk food a lot.  So far I have only gained 5 pounds and am so happy and hope that I can keep it up!  Besides keeping up with Jake and helping Logan where I can, I am in the Young Women's in my ward and am loving it! They sure keep me busy between mutual and teaching on Sundays.


 Jake- Is growing up too fast! He is a speed runner, a ball of joy, and very loveable!  He is recently working on saying words, we have been kinda concerned about it cause he should know how to say more words than he does, but I have come to realize that Jake is very stubborn and will say words when he wants to.  So far, he can say pretty clearly: Stop, no, don't, please, baby, mom, and dad.  He know a few sign language signs that help out a lot such as: more and all done.  He seems to be understanding and learning more and more every day and is sure fun!  He is very busy and keeps me on my toes every day, but tries to be a good boy.



Anyway, that's just a short update on what we have been up to and hope you are all healthy and doing well!
