We brought Parker home on Christmas day 2006. So much has changed!It has been a very long time since I last sat to add a post here. We were at the time still in Vicksburg and just finding out about the job opportunity that Alex is proud to now fill. I was in shock, depression and denial. So let me give you the short update.
In June, Alex took a job in our hometown, Petal. So we moved. I very reluctantly followed. Almost immediately after moving Alex began studying for his PE exam...let us all pray that he passed. On Sept. 4th we were shocked, amazed and so thrilled to find out that we are pregnant! Then the almost paralyzing morning sickness began. Once it lightened and I thought I was good to go, we rushed to the ER. I have placenta previa and an incompotent cervix. GREAT!!!! Now at almost 23 weeks I'm on bedrest until the birth. Oh and it is a GIRL!!!
I wish I had a scanner to scan the cute ultrasound pic of baby Piper sucking her fingers. It is amazing to see that she prefers her index finger just as Parker did. Funny how that works. I hope she is as good of a baby as Parker was.
Parker will be 3 next week and I'm so amazed at how much he has learned this year. He told me today that his cup leaked and got his shirt wet and said "Mom sometimes that just happens". WHAT!
It is so wonderful to be in Petal, now that we are here, with our families. I don't think we could survive all of what we have been going through without help and LOTS of it. Family can be a wonderful thing.
I do miss my beautiful Vicksburg house and how I had it decorated last year. I was so proud. This year we have a tree and a wreath........that is all we can handle. Alex and Parker decorated the tree and it is beautiful. I sat on the couch and gave instructions. I am sure that Alex wishes I came with a mute button.
