Home Sweet Home!

Well we've been in Utah for about a week now and it's so nice to be living in our own house, be close to family and be in a regular routine! But I have to say, being away from Christian has really been a struggle for me, I am constantly telling Eden her Daddy loves her and showing her pictures of him, and every time I do, it just breaks my heart a little. I went to church yesterday for the first time by myself with Eden (if CHristian wasn't there with me, I had either my sister or someone else there) and WOW I cannot believe how hard it was. I don't think I heard one word the whole time. Eden was great of course but just so busy! She just wanted to crawl around and say hi to EVERYONE and get into other people's bags! I was exhausted by the end of the 3 hours! I commend all you mother's that have done this with more than one child...wow! I cannot imagine how i's going ot be when the next one gets here! At least Eden will be in Nursery then! Thank goodness! I do have to say that I am so thankful for my daughter though. She is so happy ALL the time. Even though she tires me out, she hardly ever cries or throws fits, she is just happy! And she is really starting to be loving. Today she came right up to me and gave me the biggest hug, for no reason! She even patted my back! I don't know what I would do without her! She seriously is my best friend and I just can't wait to see her as a big sister.
Well after church Eden and I headed up to mom and dad Rodee's for sunday dinner! It was so nice being back there! I just LOVE how much they love me and Eden. We probably watched Eden play and be funny for half the night! They just love her and I am so lucky to have in-laws that are so loving and kind! And Eden just loves her Gramsy and Papa and all her Uncle and aunt Brittney and Uncle Cameron and Uncle Chad! She loves them. While we were there, Brittney got some really fun pictures of Eden and Papa bouncing on the Trampoline! It was so fun to watch her laugh and smile!! She loved it! Her hair was SO staticy!!! It was awesome! It was so fun being at their house and just spending time with them. I really am so lucky to have such wonderful families! Mine and Christian's. Well Enjoy the pics!

You're back! We were in Las Vegas this weekend so I missed seeing you at church. I know how hard it is to be in Utah and your husband is off somewhere for weeks selling--I totally feel for you! We Should go walking or something. Give me a call if that sounds good to you. :)

Hey Marc! Wow I have been so bad about blogging it seems like. Eden is so adorable in these pictures...I love the last one where she is staring at her static hair! So cute! So I'll be gone the next few Sundays too but how long are you here for? I would love to get together sometime.

Haha That is way cute!
Great memories!
I can't imagine going to church without Jordan. It WOULD be really hard. You'll have to let me know how it is with 2!
She really IS happy all the time. Just a major blessing! Easing you into things :]
Jordan have decided that since Camryn is also a happy go lucky girl, our next one is gonna be a little Hellion haha
I can't wait for more kids, but I know I'm gonna start looking like I'm 50 when I'm really 30. lol

The last picture of Eden is SO cute!! How long will you guys be apart? It is never fun when your husband is gone, but I can completely relate to taking a child to church alone. It will be interesting when Savannah gets here.
