Toddler Craziness

Sorry for the delay in posting. We have been spending lots of time hanging out as a family. Jonah Tyler is an amazing new addition. He adores his older brother and sister, has fun with his Daddy, but loves his Mommy the best!

Many of you are going to laugh at me but taking care of a toddler is a lot of work! Kurt and I are both exhausted most of the time. Here some of the ways our lives have changed:
1. No more sleeping in on Saturdays
2. Our clothes have snot, drool, and various other things on them.
3. Home is the easiest place to be
4. Dogs no longer freely roam the house
5. Toys in the living room, kitchen, and bonus room
6. Have gotten very familiar with the baby section at Target
7. It takes at least 10 min to get ready to leave the house
8. Kids music playing in the car
9. In love with a stroller and ergo
10. If I get one thing done on my list in a day, I'm doing good.

With all that to say, we would not change a thing. Last Sunday in church we had Jonah Tyler with us. Kurt and I were both in tears thinking about how just a couple weeks ago we were praying for him to be with us. God's hand has been on Jonah Tyler's adoption since the beginning. We are so thankful for our three amazing gifts from Ethiopia.

Boy you sure do have 3 precious kiddos!!! Toddlers are very difficult but so much fun. I really don't know how you do it with the dogs in the house. That is like adding 4 more toddlers :)
