Long time no post



Wow. It has been awhile since I have posted. Samuel is doing well. He only wakes up a couple of times at night to eat. Of course, I am tired. Joseph enjoys having a baby brother. He does get irked with mommy for not playng with him all the time.

All in all, life is good. I don't really want to go back to work, but I still have another few weeks before I have to worry about that. I plan on taking Samuel, but that makes my heart break for Joseph. I want him with me too. Here is a little game. Here are a couple of pics. One is Samuel and one is Joseph at birth. They look like twins.

Samuel looks different now. There are still similarities to Joseph, but he looks more like Joe's dad and Joseph looked more like my dad. I think that it is Samuel's eyes that make him look like Grandpa Rankin. Joseph's face shape is more like mine and Samuel's is more like Joe's.

Joe's mom left this week. I was sad to see her go. She is amazing. She cooked, cleaned and took care of her grandkids and me, as well as her grown kids. I am so thankful that she came out to help. Thank you mom Rankin for being an awesome example. I haven't eaten so well in ages and I can only hope to eat that well now. That means that I have to cook more.

I love the pictures. I can't believe how much they look alike!! My guesses are: 1 - Samuel, 2 - Joseph, 3 - Joseph? 4 - Samuel?

Wow, that's hard. You better tell us the answers some time!
