Here is little Oak getting to know Aunt Kelly and baby Mayah. Kelly lives here in our same town and Mayah is only 6 weeks older than Oak. Kelly also has Abigail who is 4 months younger than Ezra. Oak was almost one month old in this photo. It is so great to have other little ones close by and close in age - perhaps we can work on arranged marriages in the future:).
Monty and I on Thanksgiving ready for some yummy turkey brought down from Kunming!
We had two families from Kunming join us for Thanksgiving. It was great to have some extra kiddo's around!
Ezra checking out his competition! He has done great with the adjustment to having a little brother. I am not sure who is my middle child, Judah or Ezra. Either way they are great with babies and love to help mommy!
Three days after arriving home from maternity leave all of our farm help and house help left for two months. Monty had to take over milking the cows until we could find temporary help. It was a bit exhausting being home - cooking, cleaning, home schooling all with a new baby. It was even worse when Monty had to be gone two hours in the morning and two house in the evening - the two times of the day I needed extra arms most. Thankfully after only two weeks workers showed up and daddy was able to be around for breakfast and bath and bed-time routine. In the photo he is teaching Hillary, our semester volunteer how to milk so he could get a night off!
Henna my #1 Baby Momma! She is so great with the little ones!!! She was a huge help when I did not have any. Manon took over dishes and Henna was the official baby holder. I am so thankful for my wonderful daughters and the big helpers they are becoming.
Just after we arrived our friends were having a party before leaving. Here they are giving Monty and our friend Troy a massage and foot scrub!
