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.
