Jay got the opportunity to speak at a work conference in Chicago this past week.
That sent us girls to MN for a few days. Yes, I'm crazy and took a 19 month old and a 1 month old on a 4 hour trip by myself, and we're still alive!!!

| Cousins! |
 |
| My "Aunt" Nancy and Lily |
My "Aunt" Nancy is great friends with my mom and I always thought she was my aunt growing up. She has girls that are 12 months apart, very grown up now, so she has offered hope that I can do this!!

My grandma has also offered me a LOT of hope. My dad and uncle are 15 months apart. Yikes!! She was telling me all the 'crazy' things she had to do. Like, going to get water from outside in order to wash all the diapers, and then putting them all outside to dry. I can't imagine doing this and am so thankful for our diapers!!!
