Summers Family Update plus other fun stuff :)

Well hello there, long time no see! Our little family has had lots going on lately so its time for an update for friends and family :) Rachel is going to be 3 in June... but we all still call her "baby". She has beautiful long brown hair and her eyes are still blue. She talks in full sentences and has a very good memory. Right now she loves Minnie Mouse and princesses. She's quite an acrobat and loves gymnastics (nas-kicks).  She is spoiled by everyone, including me. But its easy to do with her sweet personality. Love you baby.

Blake is still working hard with A+ satellite but still manages to see his girls every night and sleep in with Rachel every morning... and golf pretty much every Friday. :) Its our anniversary tomorrow and I can hardly believe how blessed I am to have such a man... even if sometimes I want to throat punch him because I do. Love you more.

Ready? Stuffs gonna get real here ;) After waffling and not sure what I wanted to do I decided to go back to work part time.  I struggle with anxiety and was ready for something to channel that energy into. I saw the Lords hand lead me to my current job, working part time in clinic at a urology office. Never thought Id be in urology but here I am and I am loving it. Honestly. Our other motivation for me working was to help pay for that ever-spendy baby #2 who is just not ready to join our family quite yet.

We began fertility treatments last year and so far no success. I get a lot of questions about fertility treatments and I have two things to say, 1st: I don't mind answering questions about it, and 2nd: If you yourself are struggling with becoming pregnant, I highly recommend telling your family and maybe even some close friends. We have received so much love and support and everything is so much easier to deal with when we feel like we have a team behind us!

Oh ya, and we bought a house :) and a kitty. So that's what we are up to, working and shootin up hormones. We are enjoying being a family of 3 for now. well 4 if you count the cat. Anyways that's what we've been up to! Life is beautiful but its also difficult and I am very grateful for the atonement to get me through the hard times. Love you all.
