The new life!

I call it the big move because it's the first time i've ever lived outside of Utah! But we're only 3 hours away so the big move sounds a bit silly!

On February 14^th we moved to Twin Falls Idaho to set up our farm in Buhl. I really like it here and could totally raise a family here, but I’m not sure what we’ll end up doing. We’ll go wherever we’re needed for the business as long as it’s still standing. Ben hasn’t been too interested in Tyler yet. I think he knows he’s just a baby and he can’t even play with him yet. But whenever we talk about him he’ll say how cute he is, or how much he loves his baby brother. He has adjusted really good to the whole thing. I think that’s mostly because Tyler is such a good baby, and doesn’t cry a whole lot, or drive me crazy, or demand all my attention. I have really been enjoying our new baby. He is so sweet! In fact just yesterday I got him to laugh!! I was dying, it was so cute! He smiles all the time too. He is exactly 3 months old yesterday, so my little baby is growing up!

Ben joined a joyschool in our new neighborhood and that has been going really well. He could really care less about friends right now though. I guess he’ll develop a need for that later in life. We’ve been really busy with work, and I still have no idea what’s in store for us in the future, but we’re just living it one day at a time.

Baby Tyler James Davis Born 1/1/11

Tyler James Davis came about 12 days early, so I was happy about getting him here sooner than expected. He kicked me a lot and it always felt like he was ready to come out. It was a long labor, so I was feeling frustrated that I was in so much pain. Josh stayed positive and helped distract me as much as possible. When he could see his head he told me he had dark hair, which surprised me a lot! Like Ben, I only had to push a few times and Tyler came right out. After the long 9 months I was so happy he was finally here! Like Ben, it was really rough contractions in the beginning for a long time before they would give me the epidural. And just like Ben, they finally gave it to me because, thank goodness, my water finally broke! It was a really long night, but like ben, my epidural worked so great that I was able to rest a little bit. It was nice staying at the hospital for a couple days because I had time to spend time with my new baby and really bond with him. Everyone said how different Tyler looked from Ben. I guess he is his own little man.

Creative Ben

Ben loves building with blocks. Some of the things he's come up with have really impressed me. See if u can tell what they are...

Winter Snow!!

The snow has been so fun this year. Ben is loving it! Every time it snows I have to take him out because he looks so forward to it. He's been crazy on the sled too, and let's us throw him down anything. We've even sent him tumbling a couple times and he still likes it. I can't get him to stop eating the snow, and he's constantly laying his face down in the snow to eat a big bite. He even licked his snowman we made.

Happy Thanksgiving!!

This year, among so many other things, I am grateful for the progress we have made in our business over the last couple years. Josh has worked so hard and sacrificed so much for our family. This year it has started to pay off and we have been able to see a lot more of him and I couldn't ask for anything more than to be with him as much as possible. He is such a great daddy and the best husband! He is so much more than I deserve and I thank God for sending me the love of my life to help me through this life!
