coconut+chai=love.

so yesterday was a crazy day. david's gone, and i worked 2 jobs and 2 online classes. all while nursing a kid and wiping his butt.





how did i do it, you ask? with my super powers, my awesome, amazing super powers. thank you, God, for making me a woman!

it was definitely trying...even for my super powers.

so last night was a latte night. a coconut chai latte to be exact. and it made everything better.

poor sick baby

jaythan's been sick. again. he was sick while we were in kansas, and i guess he never really got over it. the past few days have been full of sleepless nights, nasal aspirators, and snot--lots of snot.

but snot on my shoulder is worth it to comfort my beautiful boy. 



in happier news, today was much better. i think he's over the hump!

A Wonderful End to a Wonderful Year

Christmas in Kansas was wonderful. Our first Christmas in the states in 4 years,  it was full of family, friends, and beautiful moments. 

Now there are new numbers on the calendar, and I cannot wait to see what God will do this year. Last year at this time, Jaythan was a far off image in my dreams, save the slight protrusion of my belly and the constant heart burn. Now he's a mumbling little boy, with a mind of his own and a strange desire to explore everything with his mouth. Who knows what a new year will bring to us! 

Here is a taste of our trip back to Kansas. Really, it's just a shout out to Jaythan. His doings are the only thing that ever seem worth filming! 
 (I must get better at that...)

Enjoy!
