california living

We moved again. Big surprise, right? We knew another move was fast approaching but what we didn't expect was to be headed to California! Heavenly Father has truly and majorly blessed us. It is no coincidence that a job opened up in Santa Monica at the same time we found out we were expecting twins. He knew we needed this blessing at this time in our lives. We are so grateful. We are so happy. Being near family again after 7 years is simply heavenly, and I find myself bursting into tears at little things: like my aunt watching Jake while I go to a doctor's appt. How did I live without them for so long?!

Jake loves being here and it makes me so happy to see him play with his cousins and run to them and hug them. He loves them all. I am so thankful he gets to grow up surrounded by family and fun. 

Scott loves his new job, though he doesn't love his commute (which is sometimes two hours one way--LA traffic) But I am so thankful for that sacrifice he makes so we can have the help we need and be by family. He's working hard getting his team how he wants it and is such an amazing provider, priesthood  holder, father and husband. Man I'm lucky!

And I'm just an incubator for the next few months. The twins (Baby A-Girl and Baby B-Boy) are healthy and growing and kicking up a storm in there. They leave me pretty breathless. I feel so blessed to a mother of three! Three! And feel extra blessed to be able to deliver the twins in a large city surrounded by good doctors and a twin specialist that is thorough and kind. 

I just feel taken care of. I feel like my family is taken care of. It is awe-inspiring to see the Lord's timing in our lives. He has given us the blessings we needed and some blessings we didn't know we needed at the perfect time.
