Well, it's been a very long time since I blogged!! But there was little bird told me to start up again!! I'm wishing right now that my life would just slow down a bit!! I know it's not going to happen. So I'm going to try to catch you all up in one post...so HANG ON!!
1.)First of all as you can tell we did have our little princess!! Her name is Bethany, she was born on September 14, 2009 at 8.27am weighing 8.3lb and 22" long!! Everything went just as planned no complication's!! We are very proud of her!! She was and still is a Surprise Miracle!! Carson's loves her and is very protective of her!! I couldn't ask for more!! We are complete!! One Boy and One Girl!! She has grown so much and now she is on Baby Food!! She weighs 13.6lb and is 25" long at six weeks!! She laughs and coos at everybody!! Her best feature is her hair!! There is so much of it, I don't really know if we can wait till one year!! But I am loving picking out dresses, hair bows, and most of what she wears or owns is pink!! So that has become one of my favorite color's!! She has learned to turn over and loves to stand up while holding her!! We play a game called 1,2,3!! She starts by laying down, then you count 1,2,3 by the time three rolls around she has pulled herself up and standing!! It's fun, and she already knows how to count 1,2,3!! I know, I'm sorry you have missed so much of her, but that's life!! Our very fast life!!
2.)Being a Big Brother...Carson started 4yr old preschool!! He goes to School of the 21st Century at Oak wood. He is now five year's old!! With the help of President Obama and his stimulus money, Carson got a Preschool Scholarship for preschool. His teacher is Mrs. Karla!! During the first couple of week's of school, they had noticed he was slow in many area's of his learning abilities!! So they set up a meeting with us and we decided to put in him some special development classes. As of right now his test scores reflect 80% of improvement!!
Since he is in school he has really blossomed into a very smart little boy!! He knows all of his color's, shapes, and most of his letter's!! He also can write his name, I know it's just preschool but I am very proud of him. It wasn't to long ago that we where feeding him baby food!! He is also getting very tall...but still a very skinny boy!! As the big change happened to us as a family, he has changed also!! The expatiation of him is higher...We expect that he mind and listen more, to help out with us since we have a baby!! I hate it for him because he was my baby for many year's, it's just hard for me to treat him as a Big Boy not a Baby!! But he was my first...and the bound will never go away!! Because he has been through so much, I want to place a big bubble around him and protect him!! So in order to do that in real life, I place him in God's hand's (my bubble). So life for him has been really exciting and thrilling!!
3.)Being a new Daddy, David is just as cute with her as ever!! When he talks or smiles at her. Her whole face just light's up!! She is definitely going to be Daddy's Little Girl!! He helps with me some, he just stays so busy working!! He is going through some emotional issues also!! Back in December he lost his mother!! The call came Dec.4 from his Dad, that his mom was hurting and not feeling well!! He wanted David to come and help him get her to the hospital, so David told him that he would be there soon. But the call came back that his mom was sitting on the toilet and he was holding her up and she wasn't breathing right!! So David took off and got there within ten min. by the time he got there she had quit breathing!! David tried to do CPR on her but it was to late!! The only thing we know, is we think her Blood Pressure bottom out!! Anyway we had to go through the Funeral Stuff and we put her in the grave Dec. 7!! It hasn't been easy on him nor us!! His Dad cannot read and so we where having to take care of him and pay the bills. But to our surprise he took a few women out to eat. (On a Date) And by January 22, he was remarried!! I know that seems very fast but he knew this woman all his life, she lost her husband back in May. So they made up there minds neither one of them wanted to be alone in this world!! So they got married. I love her, she loves my kid's!! It's been hard on David, but he says if his Dad is happy so is he!! What is so bad about all this, David keeps his emotion's to his self!! I want him to talk to me and he won't. But we are working on it. We just spent the weekend in Little Rock for our 11th Anniversary and we both enjoyed it and needed it!!
4.)Ok as for myself..I am the glue that keeps on sticking!! I am just trying to keep us all together. I make sure that everything is been taking care of at home, that everyone is feed and clothed. I love my kid's and my husband!! I still have no clue what I am doing. So I learn everyday on how to do this parent thing!! I may do it wrong or wright but the only thing is that I please God on how I did it!! But having the Baby put a issue on my Blood Pressure, i was put on med's. I'm not on them anymore. But there are time's I feel the BP go sky high but as of right now everything seems to be good. I just have to keep a close eye on it!! So that's about all of me!! It's just been a major roller coaster ride that will not stop!! I am determined to make 2010 a much better year for my family!! There where just so many changes, it's a wonder that we all survived!!
So I hope you enjoyed reading all the major issues that we went through. I will try to post more on the Blog in a couple of weeks!! So until then...you will just have to wait!!
