Well, This has been an incredible busy week for us. Kayla finished her ear infection antibiotics today and is doing great. Last night she squealed with great surprise when her Grandad Goodall, Grandma Julia and Uncle Frank showed up at our house. Tonight when we were all getting out of the truck and Grandma Julia got out before Kayla she got very concerned and kept yelling "Grandma, Grandma Grandma!". We missed getting to see Grandma Johnson today when we went to Victoria. Kayla is pretty attached to all her Grandparents and also spoiled by them. In a couple days our house will seem empty when Grandad Goodall and crew leave us to head back to AZ.
I walked into the room the other night where Kayla was playing and Kayla screamed with excitement and started babbling wildly. She must have woke baby Eric up because from inside my womb I felt some incredibly strong kicks and tumbles that lasted for a few minutes. this surprised me because Eric had been so quiet before I walked into that noisy room. We are at 26 weeks now and June is coming quickly. I am feeling pregnancy pretty strong now and am not looking foreward to my physical weakness to come in the next couple months. I am already starting to avoid lifting Kayla because she seems so much heavier than she used to.
A new changing table is our first big purchase in preparation for the birth and I can't wait because it will have dresser drawers as part of the unit and I will be able to start putting away all our little boy things. I'll try to keep the updates coming but I don't expect things to slow down now before delivery. Soon I'll be decorating for VBS at church and decorating one side of the nursery for Eric. Kayla is 19 months now and says more words than I can count and is incredible agile so she keeps me running at all waking hours. Sorry for such an unorganized post but this is what I have for an update today.
About Me
- Greg and Linda and family
- Our family began on April 20, 2004 when Greg and Linda were married after meeting on eharmony.com, dating was fun but marriage was better! Within 4 months we were pregnant and very excited about our new baby girl. At 26 weeks our precious daughter, Kara Marie was stillborn from a disease called turner syndrome. Heartbroken we cried at the loss of not only our precious baby but our dream of having a family. The Lord's mercies are new every morning and on August 4th, 2006 we gave birth to Kayla Marie. Then we were blessed again, as you can see in this blog with the birth of our son, Eric Franklin on June 4, 2008. In March of 2008 we were reunited with Katie, Linda's birthdaughter born March 18, 1990, What an answer to prayer, we love Katie very much and are very thankful for her family. On Nov. 8, 2011 we added another baby girl, Kassi Ann to our family. We can't imagine life without our children and we thank God for them every day. We pray that you will share in our joy of being a happy family and we pray that God's love will touch you today the way he touches us each and everyday.
