HAPPY BIRTHDAY, AUNT ASHLEY!!

TODAY WAS ASHLEY'S BIRTHDAY AND MOM WANTED TO GET A CUTE PICTURE OF WESTON FOR HIM TO GIVE TO HER, SO THESE ARE THE PICTURES I TOOK OF HIM OUT HERE. I THOUGHT THEY TURNED OUT SO CUTE AND SHE GOT THE TOP ONE BLOWN UP TO AN 8 X10 AND FRAMED IT FOR HER. WE HOPE YOU HAD A GREAT BIRTHDAY, AUNT ASHLEY!

BEACH PICTURES

WELL, I TRIED TO GET SOME CUTE PICTURES OF THE BOY'S ON THE BEACH BEFORE WE LEFT, BUT IT WAS A HORRIBLE DAY FOR PICTURES. THERE WAS A STORM BLOWING IN AND THE WIND WAS CRAZY! YOU CAN TELL BY THEIR CRAZY HAIR AND THE DARK SKY IN THE BACKGROUND. OH WELL, I WILL JUST HAVE TO TRY NEXT TIME! I THOUGHT SOME OF THEM TURNED OUT CUTE ANYWAYS!

I AM DONE WITH THE BEACH PICTURES NOW,BUT WE WENT TO THE ZOO TODAY SO I HAVE TO GET THEM POSTED. AUSTIN ALSO WENT TO THE GI DOCTOR FOR HIS CHECK UP AND HE HAS GAINED SOME WEIGHT! HE IS NOW UP TO 24 LBS, BUT THE BAD NEWS IS THAT HE STILL THROWS UP SOME. DR. MESTRE CHANGED HIS MEDICINE TO SOMETHING EVEN STRONGER. IT IS A MEDICINE THAT THEY GIVE CELEBRAL PALSY PATIENTS TO HELP TIGHTEN THEIR ESOPHAGUS MUSCLES. WE WILL TRY THIS FOR 2 WEEKS AND CALL BACK. IF HE IS STILL THROWING UP THEN HE WANTS TO DO SOME INVASIVE TESTS TO GO IN AND SEE IF THERE IS ANYTHING ELSE GOING ON AND HOW BAD THE ACID IS THAT IS CAUSING HIS REFLUX. I HOPE AND PRAY THIS MEDICINE HELPS BECAUSE I DO NOT WANT TO SEE HIM GO THROUGH ALL OF THESE TEST IF HE DOESN'T HAVE TO. I WILL KEEP YOU ALL POSTED.

WE ARE OFF TO NEW ORLEANS ON FRIDAY FOR THE WEEKEND AND THE BOY'S ARE STAYING HERE WITH GI GI AND PAW PAW. PLEASE KEEP US IN YOUR PRAYERS AS WE TRAVEL. I HOPE YOU ALL HAVE A WONDERFUL WEEKEND!

BYE BYE BEACH!!

THE TRACK

AFTER DINNER SATURDAY NIGHT WE TOOK THE KIDS TO THE TRACK SO THEY COULD RIDE ALL THE RIDES! THE FIRST ONE WE PUT THEM ON WAS THE KIDDIE FERRIS WHEEL AND ALL OF THEM GOT ON IT, BUT AIDEN. HE GOT UP TO THE DOOR AND DECIDED HE DID NOT WANT TO RIDE THAT THING. AUSTIN CLIMBED RIGHT IN AND WAS STANDING UP AND WAVING DOWN AT US! I THINK HE'S GOING TO BE MY DARE DEVIL AND DO ANYTHING AND HOPEFULLY AIDEN WILL BE THE ONE TO MAKE HIM STOP AND THINK WHEN HE TRIES TO DO SOMETHING CRAZY:)!

ANOTHER DAY.....

LOOK AT OUR CUTE SHIRTS:)!!!

IT'S TRUE, THE BOY'S ARE GOING TO BE BIG BROTHERS!! WE ARE SO EXCITED AND FEEL SO BLESSED TO BE ADDING ANOTHER BUNDLE OF JOY TO OUR LIVES!! WE WERE VERY SURPRISED WHEN WE FOUND OUT, BUT MOSTLY SCARED TO DEATH BECAUSE WE DIDN'T KNOW IF IT WOULD BE ONE OR TWO! WE WENT TO OUR FIRST DOCTOR'S VISIT TODAY AND FOUND OUT THAT IT IS ONLY ONE! WE WOULD HAVE BEEN EXCITED EITHER WAY, BUT WE JUST WANT A HEALTHY BABY THAT GETS TO COME HOME FROM THE HOSPITAL WITH US ON DAY 3 INSTEAD OF DAY 51!! THE ULTRASOUND SHOWED THAT I WAS 6 WEEKS AND 2 DAYS WITH A DUE DATE OF FEBRUARY 14TH, BUT THE DOCTOR'S CHART SHOWED A DUE DATE OF FEBRUARY 20TH! EITHER WAY WE WANT THIS BABY TO BAKE AS LONG AS POSSIBLE! I HAVE BEEN GREAT EXCEPT FOR THE TIREDNESS, BUT LUCKY FOR ME THE BOY'S TAKE PRETTY GOOD NAPS! SO, NOW WHEN THE BOY'S ARE NAPPING I'M USUSALLY NAPPING TOO!

MY BROTHER AND ASHLEY ARE EXPECTING ANOTHER LITTLE ONE TOO AND WE ARE SO EXCITED FOR THEM! WESTON IS GOING TO BE A GREAT BIG BROTHER! HE IS ALWAYS TAKING CARE OF THE BOY'S AND I KNOW HE WILL LOVE TAKING CARE OF HIS LITTLE BROTHER OR SISTER THE SAME! ASHLEY IS DUE ON FEBRUARY 8TH, SO THESE TWO BABIES WILL GET TO GROW UP TOGETHER TOO! PLEASE KEEP US ALL IN YOUR PRAYERS AND JUST PRAY FOR HEALTHY BABIES!!

I HAVE MORE PICTURES TO POST FROM OUR BEACH TRIP WITH THE HUGHES FAMILY AND WILL GET THEM ON HERE SOON! WE HAD A GREAT TIME, BUT WE ARE GLAD TO BE HOME! WE HAVE A BUSY WEEK THIS WEEK TOO AND RJ AND I WILL BE HEADED TO NEW ORLEANS WITH SOME FRIENDS ON FRIDAY FOR THE WEEKEND!

THE WHARF

THURSDAY NIGHT RACHEL AND I WENT SHOPPING AT THE OUTLET'S AND THEN MET THE BOY'S AT THE WHARF TO RIDE THE BIG FERRIS WHEEL! I DIDN'T THINK I WOULD BE SCARED AT ALL, BUT WHEN WE GOT TO THE TOP AND STOPPED I WAS ALITTLE SCARED! THEN THE BOY'S ALL STOOD UP AND STARTED BANGING ON THE SIDE OF THE GLASS WINDOWS AND RJ WAS JUST LAUGHING AT THEM! IT WAS FUN, BUT I WAS GLAD TO BE BACK ON THE GROUND SAFE AND SOUND!

COOL DUDE'S!
