Stupid FB

Makes me not think I should have to update my blog anymore. So sorry to any followers I still had! A lot had happened in the past few months. Let's see.
April was my dad' s and father-in-law's birthdays.
May was a busy and sad month. We had mine, my mom's, my sister, s-i-l, and b-i-l's birthdays and Mother's day. I lost a dear client of mine and good friends of our lost their little boy Carter. Carter was Gavin's little buddy, although they never really meet(due to being in the hospital) his mom and I always talked about how they were hospital buddy's. He was born 2 days after G, and was born with numerous complications and on May 30th was taken by angels to heaven. So now he is Chloe's buddy too!!
June was okay. Madalyn finished K and is now moving on to 1st grade. She will be in a split 1st/2nd grade class. She also celebrated her 6th birthday on the 29th. My sister gave birth to a baby girl "H" on the 2nd. She is beautiful and looks just like her daddy.
July was busy with a family reunion, 4th celebrations and my Dad and "bonus" mom Deb visiting from Saudi. My dad had to have 2 surgeries and is recovering well form them. And of course we celebrated my Chloe's 4th Angel day. This birthday has been a little harder, not sure why and not that the others have not been. We went to the cemetery, had cupcakes, read a book, shared memories and laughed and cried. Thank you to all the family and friends who were there with us. Thank you for loving her as much as we do.
Now on to August, oh it just started, Yeah, I feel a little caught up! Well we have the "wedding of the century" happening on the 9th. My brother and his gf of like what 7 years are finally getting married, we are all so thrilled and have been waiting for this for a long time. Ash has always been considered family, but now it will be official. Congrats, love you guys. School will start at the end of the month, yeah! I think M is sick of me. I am not fun anymore.
Ok so i hope i caught you up a little and will probably remember more after I post this but oh well. I will see what updated pics I have to.

Happy Birthday to my Boy!!

On the 25th of March I gave birth to this stinker! My life would not have been complete with out this handsome little boy. I truly can't believe it has been a year since you came so fast into this world. I love you with all my heart. I was so scared to have come so close to losing you. We are both blessed that we had the staff there to help save our lives. I could never have imagined having a boy, but BOY do I love it!!

G with his sisters.

Love this one!

M is doing good, thanks goodness!! We have been crazy with lots of things this past 2 months, lots of being sick, a new cousin, a sick mom, a few birthday's and lots of fun too. I did find my memory card reader but then lost my memory card, oh am I doing good. I believe i found everything but have just not found the time to load them on here. So i'm sorry I will soon, I promise.

WOW.......

Has it really been this long since I updated, so sorry. A lot has gone on this past month so I will touch on a few things to catch the one person who reads my blog up to date, :). First off I can't find the card reader so there will be no pictures until I find it, just a long boring post. So my Dad and step mom were here visiting from Saudi Arabia for Christmas, so good to see them! After Livi's b-day Chris and I went to the Christmas box angel to a wonderful ceremony that is for people who have lost children, we have gone every year except for 2 years ago when I had Livi. We love going to anything that allows us to remember Chloe. Gavin had his helmet appointment around the first of Dec. and it was decided that there was not much improvement to we would go another month, well we had that month appointment last week and there still was not much improvement and his Dr. said this might be as good as we can get considering he started extremely severe, but he does think that with more time with it off during the day this will allow him to start learning to roll over so he said he would only have to wear it at night for another month. This is huge and we are okay with this because we have seen a big improvement so far.
We had a great Christmas, it came and went so fast. The kids got spoiled this year even though we did cut back A LOT. We had a big surprise on Christmas, my brother and sister-in-law finally set a wedding date, 08-09-10, we are so excited for it to finally be official, even though it has always felt like it was. Congrats you guys, we are so happy.
My sister and her hubby found out that they are expecting a girl, 2 boys, 2 girls, How perfect!! She will be here in the summer.
My other sister is due in a few weeks with her first little boy, we had her shower last Saturday, I think it went well and she was able to get a lot of things she was needing. I am so happy for her to finally become a mom. She has watched her two younger sister and a brother all become parents, now it's her turn. I know she is super scared to have a baby given that she hates hospitals and needles, but I know she will surprise herself and everyone else for that matter and focus through all that pain on the end result, it's totally worth it. Having lost Chloe and all that I went through having her and feeling like all that work was for nothing, all that pain and tears just so I could go home empty handed. Being pregnant is not always fun, no sleep, killer heartburn, can't breathe, nothing fits, bathroom breaks every 10 min, and delivery is not much better, but believe me I would wish it all back just to hold my baby one more time. Sorry, I just miss her.
I will post picture soon of all our fun adventures this past month as soon as I find that reader.
