Time for another update.

I've had some time to post today but haven't actually done it cause I'm at a total loss on what to say/type. My life is such the 'same ol' same ol'' that there really isn't anything different to post on a day to day basis. I'm pretty sure that repetitive posting is annoying.

Kailee has been much better today. The baby is resting as well. Part of the baby's crying may be the fact that I have been on edge with having to get on to Kailee so much. That child is constantly into something but I'm sure, with time, she will learn to adjust to having a little sister and sharing the time that has been her's for so long. She isn't the only that has had to go through this, as you all have told me before. It's just that in the middle of a bad moment, you forget all that and just want to strangle them. She is so smart and as Kim told me yesterday, it makes discplining her that much more of a challenge.

Kim, in response to your response -- I enjoyed talking to you yesterday as well. I appreciate all your love and support. You really are my FAVORITE aunt. :) I wish I had more time to sit and chit chat with you. Better yet, it would be great if I lived nearby so that I could gain strength from just being able to spend some quality time with you. Kailee would love to be near you as well. She really needs some female bonding outside of me. She LOVES being around new people. She loves kids, too.

My mother in law coming by to spend a couple of hours with Kailee yesterday really helped me alot. I didn't feel so drained from constantly trying to find out what she was into. I need to have her come hang out with Kailee more often. I even got out of the house for a little while when Lance came home. He came home a little early and we headed to Burlington/Baby Depot to find some preemie clothes. They are the only place that really has a good selection of preemie clothes. Madelynn is so tiny. Her preemie diapers are even too big. Unless she has a major growth spurt, she will be in preemie diapers for at least 2 months. Kailee was like that too though. I still don't see how I had such small children. Lots of prayer I guess. I'm sure you women understand how much it's a blessing to give birth to a small baby. Hehe!

I know that I haven't shared my birth story yet. I will try to get around to it soon. There's alot of details and I've shared it here and there but I need to piece it all together.

I should go now. Kailee is staring outside waiting for the pizza guy to get here. Haha.

Hope everyone is having a good day. Love you all!

6 folks had something to say.:

Kailee is adddddooooorable. Bring her to me. I will give her all the female bonding she could handle. If you wanted, I could even introduce her to John Deere and mudding :)hehe

LOL! we're the kind of parents that won't let her go anywhere. haha. so i appreciate that but you'd have to bond with her here. ;0) when she's older, we will consider john deere but im not sure i want to introduce her to mudding right now. :0p

Erika, I am so thankful you have an aunt to trust period. I am praying for ya'll and miss you more than you know. I am praying for God's perfect will. I know that it is his will for you to have a strong spiritual environment. He organized the church before he left this earth for us to have sanctuary with all of the life experiences we have to deal with. Ya'll need rich, loving, supportive Christian fellowship. Keep praying, God is going to answer.

But I bet she'd love it! (so to speak) Mud makes all kids happy. Well most kids anyway.

I've been really praying for you to be completely healed of the RA. I know God can do it and I'm expecting it. I love you
