Update!

So this is just an update on life. I'm sorry I suck at keeping up on blogs, haha.
Well Bentley is nearly 19 months, and Rafe is almost 8 weeks. I can't believe how old they both are... Rafe is getting so big. Smiling, looking around, etc.
Bentley is just a little active baby. He's always running, playing, talking, and he LOVES the outside. I definitely have a future athlete on my hands! I can't believe how big he is. I've been so absolutely blessed to be such an amazing little boy's mommy<3 He's my pride and joy and I just adore him so much. <3
Levi and I are going through a pretty rough patch, but I'm giving it one last shot. It's been hard - we've been through so much and I don't want to feel like we're giving up, but if we're not happy, what's the point? So just one more shot, and if things aren't any better, we're done. I hope things do work out, though. I love him. But I just don't want to be unhappy anymore.
I'm officially back at work. It's no fun, but we've gotta pay the bills! Bentley is back in daycare and Rafe is staying with Levi's mom. So it did end up working out. I'm back on birth control (we don't need no more babies, haha.) and life is kind of getting back into routine, which I'm glad for.
FINALLY it's the weekend. I'm so glad. Tonight I'm going to the mall with Bentley, Alexis(my sisssssy), Miranda and her daughter Elora. Then, we're meeting with my parents and older sister to see the musical that Will is in at my old school. I've heard it's really good, so I'm super excited! Rafe is staying with my mom and then she's dropping him off at Levi's mom's house while she comes to the musical. She loves spending time with him, haha.
Not a whole else going on in life. I'll try and write more often!

I know, I know.

I'm so bad. I haven't updated in FOREVER.
But anyways! Things are going well here. Lex had her first cross country meet on Tuesday and she came in 10th overall(out of like, 200+), and 2nd for her school. I'm SO proud of her! :) I'm such a proud big sister, haha.
This week has just DRUG by. It doesn't help that I have to start thinking about when I'm going back to work and where Rafe is going to go. He's still only just 5 weeks. I don't want to put him into daycare or anything yet, but I kind of have to. I mean, I have to work! And I've already been gone since I was 35 weeks - so 7 weeks total. Bentley didn't start going to daycare until around 8 months, and even then I thought it was early. So I just don't know what I'm going to do. :/ Plus, daycare for two kids is going to be a lot of money, which means that I DEFINITELY need to work more. Which double sucks! So I'm kind of at a loss here.
In other news... There's not a whole lot going on! This weekend I don't really have many plans. I might try to meet up with Miranda and Elora, but I don't know if it'll work out. I do need to go to the grocery store tomorrow, but I might put it off until Saturday because it's kind of hard to control Bentley at the store when he's wanting to touch everything, etc and I can't just leave the cart and grab him since I have Rafe, too. I never really imagined that having two kids would be so stressful. But I wouldn't trade it.
I'm waiting and waiting for Rafe's first smile! I know it should be any time now, but I want him to do it already! Haha.
Hope ya'll are doing well and I promise to update more!
