Update!

Jacob said to me the other day, "You know, Mom, we have a big family". Yep. I am feeling it. I have never felt so busy or so blessed. We are adjusting so well to Lydia Mei and I think she is to us. She is fun, playful, healthy, and easy going. I even dare to say she is sleeping better. She is still up during the night, but the night terrors have decreased to once per night, if that. Our prayers are being answered.

So, to try to put my arms around "busy", I decided to count how many loads of laundry we did last week. No lie, we did 26 loads of laundry at the Lenning house. Now, I have to be honest and say that Elizabeth does her own laundry. Doug helps some. Jacob helps, too. And not all of the loads were 'huge'. I am counting again this week to see if 26 was a fluke. I will let you know. I dare any of you reading this to count how many loads you do in a week and let me know!!

Attached are a couple of pictures of Lydia Mei. She is attempting to do the splits in one of them!
