Ball

Jonathan enjoys playing ball. Here is a few pictures of him. I have only been to about 2-3 games this year. I have really missed going, but between work, times of games and swollen legs and feet that is just how it happened this year.

in Memory

Flowers that my mom got in Memory of Pa. It has almost been 3 years. It doesn't seem that long. Does it ever get any easier missing someone that meant so much to you. I ask myself that all the time escpecially on the days that I think about it alot.

Continue from the family Blog's - Just a few thoughts.
.....I loved reading there blog about Abigails prayer. In fact the whole idea of “believing” has been on my mind alot lately. One of the messages Sunday in a nutshell was the sin of unbelief. How many times do we pray about something and wonder if God really hears us and really believe we are going to get an answer. We say we believe God but if we really do how much more would be closer to God, pray like we should, receive the blessings and let God get the victory in our lives. If we only believed like a child. I remember when before we knew we were pregnant Gracie had the idea to pray for a brother or a sister. We were not trying and were not seriously talking about when we thought about having a second child. But she knew what her hearts desire was. She would just tell me “Mommy I just pray to Jesus about it then” All I could say is okay hunny. It wasn’t long, about a couple of months I was asking Jonathan to meet me at Panera Bread so I could let him know what was new in our lives. It is amazing how God can work even in the life of a child. This just reminds me to believe in our Savior more, and maybe it is hitting me right now in my life bc of so many questions of what to think, how to feel and what to do right now in my life. SO many un answers, but in reality Jesus does have the answer. RIght?

This has been an interesting week and even as I am writing pray for my husband as he is talking to this guy on the phone about believing. This guy has a lot of questions, although he does believe there is a God. I just pray that God will give him the wisdom and knowledge to know how to approach and what to say in right way and time to help this guy. Our prayer is that one day this guy will be saved.

Time is Coming Along.

Time is coming along with this pregnancy. I have had another visit with the high risk doctor and an upcoming visit this week with the OB doctor. With still suppose to be taking it easy, anemia, hyperthyroidism-Probably pregancy induce, and a minor blood clotting disorder I am doing pretty good. Better than a couple of weeks ago. Contiue to pray please!
The doctors did not really want me to travel this weekend but I was pretty much set on going, so we headed off to the mountains. Friday Jonathan went to work at his Johnson City Tennessee store and then headed to Geigh's for the night. For me and Gracie she finished up on her last day of dance camp. She had a fun filled busy week. Ballet, tap, acrbatics, field trips, stories, music, pledge, crafts. She says her favorite was ballet. Then after lunch she had her 4 year old check up. I didn't tell her till then we were going to the doctor, she was so funny. She said, "Mommy, why am I going to the doctor, Do I have problems?" She thought something was wrong. So I did my best to explain these visits are to keep you healthy. Then went to pick up my mom bc she was going to take Gracie to Tweetsie on Sat. We stopped that night in North Wilksboro bc I had been in the car long enough. Dr said no more than an hour at a time. Ate supper, looked at the town, and stayed in a hotel. Sat. morning got up and headed up the mountain. Dropped them off at Tweetsie and then went to Jonathans grandparents (to rest) and just hang out. After they got done with Tweetsie we went back. Gracie told Geigh, I brought my Nana this time. Like she was show and tell or something. Cute right. Gracie rode the John Deere tractor for the first time. No tears, she enjoyed herself. I must not forget. Her little face lights up when she gets to see her Uncle Tommy!

Moments Unexpected.

Well, it is 11:00pm and I have been hospitlaized for about 24hrs now. Possible placental abruption. This is just not me sitting. I am trying really hard to be patient and do well. Baby is active and okay, just a risk of him coming early now. Scary, we have nothing ready. Shouldn't normally be no big deal seeing this is my 24 week. 6 months. but not good now. Got to get ready faster, I guess. Just in case. Bless Gracie's little heart, she doesn't understand and this makes me very sad when left crying tonight, not so much that you can say to a certain point to an almost 4 year old. Jonathan is a little better on in to tonight, last night he was pretty much in a big panic. God is still in control, so we will all be okay in the end.
Okay I am going to go. Just trying to find something to do will I do nothing.
