Addyson did great.






Addyson did really well today. When we got to the hospital she was amusing all of the nurses. She was being her normal Addy. She was saying Hi to everyone and being a door greeter like usual. The nurses even gave us a wagon to pull her in so she got to have wagon rides. I will try to post some pics. They came in and gave her an exlixer of tylenol and an anxiety medicine. We the nurse came to get her she could hardly even hold her head up. The doctor said that she did great and the both ears were severly infected. I heard her crying before they even called us to tell us to come back. She was very fussy for about an hour after the surgery. Since then she has been great. She has ate everything in site and took a great nap. We want to thank everyone for there prayers. I felt stronger today than I thought I would and I know that it was because of these prayers. We love you all and have a very Merry Christmas.

My baby is getting tubes!!!!

Addyson has been fighting a constant ear infection for the last 4 weeks. It has been absolutly miserable for her and in return to all of us. The doctors have given her 4 different antibotics and it has not cured or made her ears any better at all. On Wednesday (my 5th doctor visit in the last 4 weeks) they decided that this is an infection that will not go away unless we put tubes in. Therefore that afternoon we visited the ear specialist and we decided that on Tuesday 12/23 we are going to put tubes in. I am super nervous about the surgery. I know that it is easy and that the doctor does it at least 100 times a month, but she is my baby and I don't want to have to be put totally under in general anestetic. But, I do want her to perfectly healthy and in order for that to happen the tubes have to go in. I told the doctor to order me a valum right along with her medicines. hahaha. Parenting is definetly challenging in all of the things that you encounter. Please pray for the doctors and for Addy. Pray that she won't have any reactions and that she will be healthy and cured of the infections. Thank you so much. I know that we will definetly be able to feel the prayers. I love you all. God bless.

Some updates

Hello. Its been a few days. Election day was a success in Washington, but I am worried about our nation. The media is turning it into a race thing. I really don't care what nationality our president is as long as he/she has great morals. Our next presidents morals are what I really worry about. The only thing to do now is PRAY. Pray that God controls our country and his life. Anyways.... We have had news on the little boy that we were going to try to adopt. He has a family that he will go back to when his medical treatments are finished. I was really sad, but I have prayed since we first seen him for God to work his will in this little boy's life not my will. I do have a peace in my heart about everything. I still have a special place in my heart for him but I know that God's plans are far better than my own. The girls are doing wonderful. Hayleigh is growing up way to fast and I love to have conversations with her. She absolutly amazes me everyday with her verbal skills. Addyson is my little cuddler. She loves to hug and kiss and rock. Hayleigh was tooo independent to be this way. Well I have to go back to work so I will talk to you all later. I love ya.

I'm finally blogging!!!!!

Hello all. I have been wanting to blog for a long time, but am just now finding the time to do it. My life the last month has been crazy. Johnny and I went on our first mission trip the third week of October. This was amazing. That doesn't even explain it. First I missed my kids terribly. I had not been away from them for over 24 hours before this trip. I went 10 days without seeing them and only talked to them 3 times during the whole week. I loved it though. I love Haiti and the people there. We are actually seeing if Richie a little boy in one of the orphanages that we visited is adoptable. I have emailed the House Of Hope and praying for God's will for this little boy right now.
I am anxiously awaiting the holidays. I love Halloween, it is by far my favorite holiday. Christmas and Thanksgiving are close seconds though. I have started my shopping and hoping to finish next weekend. I love to do things early and not a late person. I better go for now. I am wanting to blog everyday so we will see how that goes. Love ya.
