My baby is growing up!








Here's the lastest pictures of our little Finner the winner. Oh, I love this little guy so much! He has enough energy to power L.A., but he is so happy and pleasant to be around. He makes Caleb and I so happy and we are SO grateful to be blessed with him as a son. He will be 15 months tomorrow and is getting so independent and chatty. Caleb is currently working 12 hours shifts/5 days a week for Kellogg's and I have three weeks left in my clinical rotation for my dietetic internship. Life has been really hard lately, but we're grateful for all the people who are helping us get through this bumpy time in our life. Sometimes I think that I've done something wrong to be going through this "trial" and then on Sunday I was reminded of Job and what he had to go through. I guess I need to realize that we have trials to make us more like our Heavenly Father and should be grateful for the opportunity to be able to learn and grow and become eternal families. It's just not so easy to have an eternal perspective when you are in the midst of a trial. Thanks to all of you for your great examples of enduring well through your own personal trials and giving me strength when I need it the most.

Oh Kense! You are doing such a great job. Going through the internship with a little one depending on you is no easy task, but I promise you can do it and it will go by quickly. The next two rotations are much easier (at least they were for me). You are amazing. I love you! Keep up the good work! I'm always here if you need to vent :)

Girl, you are amazing! The fact that you have a baby and are still accomplishing something that is difficult without one is simply awe inspiring. Keep up the good work and if I can help with anything, I would be happy to!
Also, Finn has a beautiful smile just like his mommy. :)

I can not believe it!! He is so cute!! And getting so BIG! I wish he was here with me. I can't believe you only have three weeks left, but it probably seems like forever for you. What you going to do after the three weeks? Enjoy your little boy? Maybe you all should just come live with us for some time after your done, that would be a blast.

Oh my! Finn is so adorable!! Keep up the positive attitude, trials usually end, and then are followed by another one :) You have such a great sunny personality, and you whenever I am around you I'm find myself in a better mood. It was great to see you at oak city days!! Call me next time you come!
