I Don't Get It...

 So, I had to go to the doctor this morning because I found a tick on me last night.  Ewwww!  Normally I wouldn't be concerned, but since I'm pregnant, I thought it was better to be safe than sorry.  I'm visiting with the doctor and he says, "how many (kids) will this make for you?"  I told him that this would be our third.  He said, "you know we have medicine for that".  I wish I was quick on my feet...but I'm not.  If only he knew all the medicine we've taken to have our babies.  Babies that we have wanted to be part of our family. Babies that we have hoped and prayed for...and continue to do so.  Babies that we have seen the heartbeats of, but never been able to hold. 

Since when did it become undesireable to want or have more than two children?   I think it says a lot for what our society puts its value in. I suppose those individuals wouldn't get me driving a 1995 Toyota Camry either. 

I love my kids, and I'm so glad God has blessed me with them.  They are all so precious, and I couldn't imagine life without them. Pin It

Meet my new baby...

Isn't he precious?  A little too big for his brothers bassinet,

but precious all the same!

Vacation 2010

We had a great summer vacation.  We went to the Lake of the Ozarks in Osage Beach, MO.  The kids had a few firsts...bowling, bumper boating, and a ride on a big boat.  Happy Feet was a great little bowler. 

I asked Red Shoes what his favorite part of vacation was and he said the "num, num".  That's food.  That's my boy!  He was cracking me up...by the end of vacation he was placing his napkin in his lap for our meals. 

Happy Feet started telling us when she had to poop!  She's got it down I think (that part anyway).  For parents who are having another baby soon that's a wonderful milestone!

Here's some photos from our trip:

Think she could get any more comfortable?

They loved the water slide!

Playing with bubbles on our balcony.  They loved this.  They have such a fun dad!

Independence Day 2010

It was a very wet Independence Day this year.  We stayed close to home and shot off some fireworks.  The kids really enjoyed them this year.  Red Shoes hated them last year and this year he couldn't get enough off them.  That sure made his dad happy! 

On the 5th my sister spent the day with us and we enjoyed round two of the fireworks.
