Snuggle Update

Whelp,

November 2015: Heidi Pollyanna was born!

Let's just say that having two babies is SO MUCH FUN!  Way more fun than even the one.  And we are pretty bonkers over Lucy, so that says a lot.  I'm so grateful that I didn't go through the Postpartum Anxiety and Depression that I did with Lucy.

The Mother's of Preschoolers group I have been going to for the past couple of years has been the greatest blessing to me.  What a gift to have a community of friends who support and care for each other.  I love being a part of it! The picture below is the table group minus one from this year with our littlest babies that have been born or are in bellies!

My brother, Peter, and his girlfriend Amy are now engaged!  A wedding in September! 

Tim's younger brother, David, and his girlfriend Kristhel are also engaged and getting married in October in Australia- so Tim will have an adventure going to spend some good time celebrating their love over his birthday.

I recently got into Podcasts and it's been a GAME CHANGER, folks.  I had dabbled here and there with This American Life and sermon podcasts, but I have found some GEMS.  Specifically, The Popcast!  Hilarious stuff.  Pop culture is not my jam, but Knox and JAmie MAKE it my jam.

I love a good dose of funny.

Tim and I have been watching some choice SNL skits.  Completely inappropriate, but altogether beautiful.

We went to Crater Lake for an incredible family vacation!  We give it two thumbs up!

Then we have a bunch of family get-togethers this Summer, I'm hopefully going back to work just on-call in the Fall, and life keeps going.
