Happy Thanksgiving to All!

Happy Thanksgiving to all! We have been spending the week going to see family. We spent Wednesday with Hal's family and tomorrow will be spent with my family. Fun time. :~) Hal and I went Black Friday shopping this morning at 5am. It was really fun to get to do that as we have never had a babysitter to do it before today. We got the kids some really great stuff that I'm really excited to give to them. I can't wait to go out and shop again!

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone!

Sick, sick again!

I swear my kids have had everything they possibly could get sick with already this year! Owen had to stay home from preschool for the last 2 days because he has a wonderful case of croupe. He was absolutly miserable! On top of things, he has asthma so when he gets like that I instantly get worried that this time will be a time that I can't help him with. I have been able to manage his asthma up until this point but there are times I worry that it just won't be enough. I worry that I will not recognize when he needs more help. Thankfully this time it was a viral infection (croupe) and he will be over it in a day or so. He spiked a 104.5 fever the other night and we laid in the bath tub at 1am to bring it down.

Now to only pray Madison doesn't get it now!

Jello Fun!

So much fun to play in Jello. Just buy some googly eyes, spiders, bats, etc and let them explore. Orange fingers is just an additional treat!

Like Brother Like Sister

OMG Madison wants to be just like her big brother...here's the proof... See her muscles!

I am looking forward to...

Girls NIGHT OUT!! Next week! YEAH!!!

This will be one of the few girls nights out that I can actually consume alcohol! :)

Beautiful Poem

A fragile butterfly
lights beside us
like a ray of sunshine.
For a fleeting moment
its majesty and beauty
belong to this world.
All too soon it flies
on again, and though
we wish it could
have stay,
we feel so luck
to have seen it.

It's getting "easier"

The last few days have been hard. When I found out I was pregnant, I announced it to the world! I posted it on my website (www.simply4women), myspace, emails, and then on here (it has since been deleted!). I wanted the world to know that we were having a precious baby in June. Problem is, many people did not see the newest update of "no more baby!" So I have had very supportive people give me their well wishes for this new baby. Then, I have to tell them there no longer is a baby. That is so hard to do. I just want to say how well things should have been. I'm holding strong through this all because Hal and I have both agreed, we want baby #3 soon! We will not be waiting to have a summer baby this time around. In time, we know we will get pregnant again. Until then, I will just have to pray that things go okay.

Hal and I also agreed that we will wait 8 weeks before we tell. Now, if you know me, you know I stink at secrets. So we shall see. I think I'll make a mental note how many times I mess up and tell someone when it happens. LOL :)

So as things get easier, I feel more confident in having baby #3.
