Catch Up

I posted these pics on facebook, so if you have already seen it, oh well! :O)




Aww, sweet sleeping baby!!!
Don't bother wrapping him up tight, he figures out how to get out!!! ;o)


Curt is in Mexico until Wednesday. Got a call from him late tonite, he's there and already sunburned! I did ask him if he wanted the kids suntan lotion, he said no, so it's his fault! :O) I can't wait to hear about his time there!!! He said that there are about 148 million kids who need to be adopted (Not JUST in Mexico...) and only 8 million kids who have been adopted! So sad!!!! I told him I need to wait until Thaddeus gets a little older before we adopt!!!!! (Unless God tells me otherwise...) Still so heavy on my heart to adopt!

Went and got paint for the kitchen and the kids rooms today! I had to return something for Curt that I forgot to take with me when I was there 2 days ago. The kids asked me 2 days ago when we were there if they could get their paint, I told them the next time we go in there I would get it. I said it because I didn't think I was going back in 2 days! ;o) So when we got there, walked in the door, they asked, so I said ok, but didn't know WHEN I would get it all painted! They were ok with that, they are happy to just HAVE it!! LOL ;o) I can NOT wait to do the kitchen, it is going to look AWESOME!!! Curious about the color and what am gonna do? Well, gotta wait til I get it done and take the pics! I am sure you know it won't be WHITE!!!!!! This house s WAAAAAY too white and tan!!!! ;o)

I need to get to bed, sooo tired! Will my energy EVER come back??? I feel as if I should be back to normal! I can fit into my jeans again, (WHOO HOO!!!! I still need to lose some weight, I am not back to where I was, but I CAN get into the old jeans!!! ;oP) so I feel as if I should be able to do everything! But I can't... Trying to get things in order and some things put away while Curt is gone!

Things are coming up in the garden, the kids were sooo excited to see the little green plants!

Enjoy the pic's and will post pics of the house when I get everything where I want it, or when it's painted! :O) Also picked out color for living room, but want to get the kitchen and kids rooms done first!! ;o)

Whew...

written 4-7-18 Wow! It's been a while since I"ve blogged...  Crazy fun times around here!  :) We had a BIG EVENT for our church Friday night.  It was awesome!!!  All about where we are and what we need to finance our new church building we are building!  We were to take a card and pray about a number and donate for the building fund.  It was a FANTASTIC awesome night to say the least!!! Curt and I have been praying about a number that God wants us to give.  We both feel a number, we can't afford.  haha...  We really can't afford anything because we still have 2 adoption credit card bills we are paying off.  God has blessed us and given us what we need each month.  But we want to give, and adding it up and looking at our budget and writing it all out, it's not there.  Nothing is there!  But that's the way it was with adoption!  We took that step of faith! So that was Friday...  Saturday morning went to kettle bell class and I died...  I honestly haven&#

Ultrasound

First of all, thank you ladies for all those sweet comments you made on my last post! How sweet you are for saying those things! Made my day!!! :O) Second, went for the ultrasound on Monday and everything is fine! WHOO HOO!!!!! No more placenta previa!!!! The baby weighs about 2 1/2 lbs, and everything looks good! We took the kids with us so they could see their baby brother/sister, they LOVED it!! Gavin was FULL of questions though! What's that stuff she put on mommy's belly? Why do the lights needs to be off? I only see one eye. Where's the other eye? What was that, is that his hand or leg? Oh my.... ;o) The tech ended up putting up a 4D on the screen, so that was really cool to see! The cord was kinda in the way, but I still think it was awesome! I didn't have that with any of the other kids!!! :O) Maybe the trick is taking 3 other siblings in to see the 4th!!! ;o) I also only gained a pound, which I am trying to figure out, seeings how I pretty m

Grandma

Grandma passed away this morning at 1:35 am. She had been totally un-responsive for the past couple of days. Yesterday we got a call and said she only had an hour, they said they made the mistake and grandma heard them, so she kept hanging on! Her feet had been cold and almost black, but they were starting to get warm and she was taking more breaths, but still very shallow. Finally she gave in and went home! The family seems to be doing ok, just please keep them in your prayers! The viewing will be Sunday and the funeral on Monday. I am not sure of the times yet, they are meeting with the funeral director in an hour. I am not going to be at the musical practice Monday nite, so Sandy May and Jena R are in charge that nite! I will have the lines assigned so the kids will know what their parts will be! Please help them out this week!!!! Thank you!!!! Thanks again for all of your prayers!!!!
