I want my baby

My "baby" is two years old at the end of the month. I need baby to fill my arms when I rock in the rocking chair. I need someone who will let me hold him while he sleeps and doesn't mind me smelling the back of his neck, I need that sweet baby smell. I need a baby to nurse when I'm up at 4am. I miss those first little smiles and giggles, those little sqeaky noises as he sleeps.
I understand newborn babies, I understand they need to be fed, changed, held and loved, and sometimes they need to cry. I can handle all that. I do not understand toddlers, they get upset over everything and there is nothing I can do, they have their own ideas about things, they don't want to be held for no reason, they don't want what you feed them, They don't want to be in diapers but they don't want to use the potty either, and I don't know how to help them.
There is only one thing to do about this problem. Make sure my toddlers are safe, warm and loved and have another baby.

Happy New Year part II

Happy New Year!

This hasn't been a terrebly exciting year, just school and junk. We got a new car in June (thanks dad!), Jason started his new exciting career in journalism, and we moved all the way from Provo to Orem. We have been on a few trips: Jason has been to California 3 times, Canada, Las Vegas, Colorado, and Pheonix. Amanda has been to Colorado 3 times, Las Vegas, and Pheonix. The boys have been to Colorado twice, Las Vegas, and Phoenix.
This coming year: more school, hopefully a new baby next fall, more traveling for various reasons, the daunting task of potty training Harry etc. etc.
