Lovin' the lack of sleep...

The past few days have been an encouragement and a challenge. Landon has been waking up every hour at night and only taking one (good) nap a day. Now you can see how that would be a challenge...but there is also a huge blessing there. One year ago last month, we were praying for the sleepless nights and icky diapers that come with a baby. God has given them to us! God answers prayer. We used to wonder why people complained about being drenched in spit up, baby blow outs, lack of sleep, or crying babies. We now understand that it was because IT WAS A CHALLENGE! We hope never to forget how truly blessed we are to have these little challenges in our lives. Landon is worth every one of them!  Although it is hard to remember at times they are some of the littlest problems we will face as parents. We often catch ourselves praying away these moments rather than remembering to enjoy them. They make moments like this so amazing!!!

God is working in our lives in so many ways. We are excited to see what He does next! We are quickly learning that he knows best.  This week Blaine has an interview in Vacaville, CA.  On Friday a manager (from a store in Utah… close to one that he interviewed at two weeks ago) called to ask him if he was planning on applying for the assistant manager position he had open. The manager said he had heard a lot of good things about him and was very interested in interviewing him for the position. Blaine will be getting a call to schedule a time fir that interview today… So we will see what happens. Maybe we will live in Utah after all. It is all in God’s hands!
