9 Years!

It's been 9 years since I married my best friend. We've done a lot in those years - 4 children, 6 moves, 5 different jobs, 5 different cars, countless different callings, so many late nights spent talking about "life", struggling to learn how to parent 4 very different children, laughing together, crying together (ok maybe that was just me) ... but one thing remains unchanged. He's still my best friend!

This little lady

Can you see her? She is adorable huh! We love her bunches and bunches. Lately she has been showing quite the stubborn streak. Ok, so it's only been the last 4 days. But holy cow is she ever fiesty and grumpy!!!! It all started on Sunday. I had to take her out during Sacrament meeting. No big deal right. I tell you this is a 1st for her. She has been such a good baby. On Monday she would scream anytime her brothers came near her. She refused to nap, refused to eat her baby food and wanted to be nursed almost every 2 hours. This has continued on thoughout the nights and through the morning today. Cross your fingers because she is taking her 2nd nap today as I type. We have wondered if it is teeth (can't feel or see anything), an ear infection (no fever, no pulling at her ears), we tried supplementing with a bottle  (which she refuses to drink). Personally, I think this little lady is just showing us who is the boss around our house.
Is it weird to anyone else that her favorite place to play is under our bed. Apparently she has no problem with tight dark places. Holy Claustraphobia Baby!
