JANUARY started off with a kidney stone. I began feeling kidney pains the week of Christmas and Christmas afternoon and evening, I was hurting pretty good. I've had kidney pains before so I knew what it was, but I had never passed any stones. But a few days into the year, out popped a stone. I was surprised at the size. I'd say it was about the size of a kernel of of corn. About a month later, I felt pains when going to the bathroom again so I figured I had another stone coming, but it ended up being a UTI due to me being B Strep Positive during pregnancy. So after some antibiotics, that felt so much better. Besides this, my pregnancy was so good though. Other than that excitement, January was just adjusting to life with a puppy (which was a big, emotional adjustment for me. It still is several months later), and enjoying the last couple months with 2 crazy kids.
FEBRUARY, I was very hopeful baby boy would come early in this month. So I spent that month doing all the end of pregnancy stuff. Taking progress pictures of my bump, movies and popcorn nights with my family, and just getting ready for the baby to come.
MARCH was the big month. I shared all about Luke's birth story in a separate post here, but it was a fast, but long month at the same time and so much happened in that month, which I shared some of that stuff in this post here. So besides all of the new baby stuff that went on this month, Ashton also started baseball. He's always loved baseball and loves batting and is so good at it. He did great and it was fun to watch him!
APRIL we went to Red Cliffs like we do every April, and we also enjoyed Easter as a new family of 5. We finally started up second hour of church again so Hallie got to go to Sunbeams in Primary. I love that I am also in Primary so I can see them do all the big kid stuff! Besides that, we were just living the adjustment survival mode life with a newborn, but it's also the best. I love having sweet moments and memories with my people, even if it's just getting out of the house and going for a walk.
