The Blessing of a Healthy Child..

So many times I sit back and realize how much I take for granted. Addison Layne has been sick for the past 5 weeks with a cold. Last night she was up most of the night. I stayed out of work and took her to the Pediatrician. We are now on our 2nd round of antibiotics. It is so hard to sit back and watch your little one be uncomfortable. She has 5 teeth coming in and I am sure they are not helping the situation. We are asking for prayers that our little Angel will feel like herself again!

Summer Fun!

Hello....

Yes, we are still here! It has been a bit of a crazy month. Addison starting school, getting sick, we went on vacation... I know excuses, excuses! I promise to do better. Addi Layne turned 8 months on Saturday. Time is going by way tooo fast! I know people tell you this when a child is born but it is so true!

Addison is so interactive. She loves school and her little friends. Her Teachers are wonderful! She is starting to try and scoot around. Babbling away.. we even think we heard her say Da Da Da the other day. You can imagine what John was like after hearing this. I will add more pictures soon of our recent trip to the Beach. Love you All!

All is well....

It is Sunday evening. John is at work. We miss him dearly when he is away from home on Sundays. There is nothing any better than going to Church as a family.
Today in Sunday school we discussed the Beatitudes. Being meek, dying to self and avoiding being Worldly. I was searching the Internet this evening and came across a website that has daily encouragement for mothers. God is really speaking to me....It is encouraging Mothers to pray for a meek spirit in their Children and praying for them to be Christ like. So true....and AMAZING!

Addison Layne

Addison Layne is such a happy girl!

She loves to play and each day brightens our lives beyond belief!

Sorry the video is not the clearest in the world.

Our first week of "School"...

Well... Addison did great! Mommy did well also! It is amazing to me how adaptable children are. Addison went in her class like she had been there since day one. She is so observant of all the children around her. Lots of new toys to play with. We learned that she loves to bounce in the jumper. Her teachers are wonderful! They make me so at ease with everything and assure me that she will fit in wonderfully. I was really nervous about her naps at school. She has been napping but only 30 minutes. Friday we did one hour!!! YEAH!!!! Wanda keeps telling me no worries...she will get there. They are sooo good!!

However, Saturday morning we woke up with our first COLD! I knew that is would come...just not after only one week. Today is Sunday, John and I are both at home. It has been nice to just cater to her needs today!
Have a wonderful week!
