1. So, I have bells palsy. It is a condition where the right side of my face is paralyzed. I have seen a few older women get this and also my dad got it a few years ago. Supposidly, it is caused by stress. However, I don't FEEL stressed- too much anyway. It can last anywhere from weeks to permanent- just depends on how serious it gets. I have been resting as suggested by my doctor- and been taking it easy to ensure it doesn't get worse. I'm pretty sure once the baby comes, it should get better immediately.
2. However, I was SO GLAD when Bryan came home from work today because he had me laughing my head off. IT WAS JUST SO GREAT TO FINALLY SEE HIM TODAY. I just love him so much cause he cracks me up. I'm sure he secretly just wants to see me laugh my head off with half of my face paralyzed. Fun times! He has been taking care of the kids and taking such good care of me and it will be awesome when I have this little baby and get feeling all better. I just LOVE MY SUPER HANDSOME HUSBAND! I Just told him that when he takes pictures at the hospital to you know, get my good side!
3. I'm also grateful for the people in the ward who have brought dinners and helped with our little boys! I feel so taken care of and LOVED. It is really amazing how people have taken care of our family, and for that I am so grateful.
4. LIFE IS GOOD. And I am getting SO EXCITED about Baby BOY LUKE! I can't wait to meet him. Lets hope he's hairy:)Flip! Boys are SO AWESOME! WE ARE GOING TO HAVE SUCH AN AWESOME FAMILY!
5. Isaac did something hilarious. 2 days ago, Penn was running around the living room and Isaac was up on the couch holding up the couch cushion. All of a sudden, Penn runs around the corner and Isaac jumps off the couch with the huge cushion, lands on top of Penn, and yells HIIIII YAAAA! I couldn't help but laugh! Then, I was like, Isaac, we don't tackle our little brother like that, he is still a baby- to which his respond was- "ah, mom, he's not just a little baby- he's my BIG, BIG Brother, he LOVES THAT." Penn didn't even cry... just gave him the look like- "you know what big bro- in a couple of years, i'm going to be bigger than you- and then its on like FLIPPIN DONKEY KONG!"

My mom got bells palsy when she was prego with my sister, it didn't last long (she didn't think she was stress either, just a random product of Pregnancy). Anyhoo, I am glad you can laugh and enjoy life,and family. You are such a insparation and so positive! Let me know if you need anything.
MJ, you're amazing! One of those people who are always so positivo, you're my hero. Oh, and your family is flipping awesome! Maybe we'll have a girl next and the stars will be aligned. 3 girls, 3 boys... just like 7 brides for 7 brothers! Well, I guess we'll have to have a few more to get there. haha.
My grandpa had that once too for a little while. I'm sure you are still beautiful in every way. Your baby will be here so soon! Hooray!
I just got finished reading your blog to the fam. Travis thinks you should write an editorial oh and he also says at least half of your face is a "poker face". Take care!
