- Everyone should have their best friend give birth within the same two weeks that they do. It makes for some great commiserating. Thank you Whitney. What would I do without you?
- Relief Society dinners- I love the girls in my ward. They bring so much food that I have really only had to cook like 4 times since I've had Annie.
- Moms. 'Nuff said.
- And sisters.
- Darcy Haas watching my boy on the day when I would happen to need to sleep in more than anything. You are an angel!
- Sugar cookies. You know who you are!!!!
- A little boy that loves his baby sister more than he loves his favorite cars... and that's saying something.
- The fact that Will still takes 1.5-3 hour naps in the afternoon. I know, you are all jealous.
- Prayer. Wow. Lots and lots and lots and lots of prayers.
And last, but certainly not least....
10. Dallas. He takes such good care of my kids and me. Even with a full time job and a killer trig class. I love you.

Hang in there friend! I'm glad we have each other :) love you!
You are a wonderful mom. You have adjusted to having TWO kids so well. Your babies are darling and I love every chance I can get to see them. Love you tons and see you soon!
I am prepping myself! I know newborns are hard and I am a little nervous to have an almost 2 year old to help me out! But I do have a best friend giving birth about 2-3 weeks after me! I am grateful for that! Any other tips you have of "coping with tender mercies" let me know!
You are a great mom! I am sure you handle everything so much better than you think!
Oh, you are such a great mother! I wish I could help you out with something. It would make me happy to see you. And you have so much gratitude for the big things and the small things!
I was just thinking that Heavenly Father isn't going to leave you to your own after having a baby. It speaks volumes to you that you recognize the blessings he is sending your way.
And you forgot to mention on your list delicious homemade banana nut bread ;)
I think that having a newborn is one of the seriously most difficult things to deal with that I have ever done. Why do you think I just had 4 children? Add on to that the fact that all of them screamed their little faces off and I'm surprised I had that many.
I'm glad that you have coping mechanisms.........keep usin' 'em.
That birth (the previous post) sounds absolutely crazy! I'm glad everybody is okay.
I think I messed up being able to see you when you were here. Was I suppose to call you? I will call to find a day to come see you and my Annie.
love you
