So much to say, so little time...

I have been waiting for a convenient time to update you all on everything we have been doing.  I've decided there is no such thing!  The Monday after Caleb and his family came to visit I began babysitting for a friend of mine whose babysitter quit on her without notice.  Keira is 6 weeks younger than Ruby and she loves her parents...not me!  So, between keeping her half the day and chasing Ruby all day and still being exhausted by the early stages of pregnancy, I haven't accomplished much in the last month.  Now here I sit, typing with one hand so I can hold Keira and hoping that Ruby will sleep just a little while longer!  
The visit with the Calders (Caleb's fam) was fantastic!  We thoroughly enjoyed their company and look forward to future visits:)  In fact, we are super lucky because Caleb and his brother Adam are coming for a long weekend next week!  All of my siblings will be here for Katie's graduation from OT school.  (She has a Master's degree!)  So everyone who missed meeting Caleb the first time will be here:)  Trevor and Christina are especially excited to see Caleb and Adam again.  They have tons of things in common.  From a love of reading and art to longboarding, they have plenty to keep them entertained.  I'm so glad they have meshed into our family so seamlessly.  To me, it is just another affirmation of our Heavenly Father's awareness of us and his desire for us all to be happy!  The whole situation has absolutely been divinely orchestrated:)  
Well, gotta wrap this up.  Keira is getting grumpy.  I'll try to post again soon.  And next time-pictures!
