That's Better!

The sun is shining, and Owen gets home from his mission today!!!! Yippee!!!!

I did have a really hard time yesterday. At one point I just sat on the couch and cried, while the kids climbed all over me trying to make me feel better. Thomas was such a sweetie, he kept giving me kisses and patting me on the head, over and over again. It was so sweet it made me cry even harder.

But I really am feeling quite a bit better this morning. I'm officially 15 weeks pregnant, we leave for Idaho in four days (yikes, that means I have only four days to clean the apartment, do some laundry, and pack for the trip - sounds easy but if you saw the apartment you'd know it really won't be), Owen is getting home!!!!, and the sun really is shining. The grass is green and the sidewalks are almost dry. I don't know how long the sunshine will last, but I'm sure enjoying looking out the window at it while it's here! Maybe we'll walk to the library later today (Zaylee and Jeff are still in bed or I'd go right now) if it stays nice. There aren't even any clouds in the sky! Yay!

I'm SO glad you're doing better today! I think I must've been in a slump, too, cuz I don't remember the last time I commented on a blog. Hope the rain stays away and that you get everything done you want in time to go see your brother!

I was so happy for the sun yestesrday too! That's so exciting that Owen is home! It's always a lot of work getting ready to leave your home to several days, but what a wonderful reunion you'll have with Owen and your family!

Wow, are we excited about next weekend! We'll be chilling with everyone at the reunion on Saturday and then spending the night at Mom's so we can catch Owen's talk Sunday. Nice full house! We did jog over yesterday, and we sure could have used you while we were figuring out dinner.... :-) Poor Owen, William was very much not taken with him, but ran to Nelle quite gladly- almost relieved that the strange guy had quite talking to him!

Can't wait to see you guys, although I am still craving eggs benedict now, thanks a lot.
