Thanks for your prayers!

Thank you everyone for your prayers and your messages of concern. My sister Janae is doing better. They were able to take her off the ventilator yesterday afternoon. She is still in ICU and will probably be in the hospital at least 4 more days. She was finally able to talk yesterday and was very emotional about the situation. She said that before they put her on the ventilator she really thought she was going to die, she couldn't breathe anymore and didn't know what to do. I can't even imagine the feelings of suffocation she must have felt.

So she's still in ICU but she is breathing on her own with the help of an oxygen mask. I know that all of our prayers were answered. She still has a way to go but things are looking alot better than they were Sunday.

Thanks again for your prayers and concern. It's great to have friends and family you can rely on in situations like this. Thanks again!

I am so glad. My mom said she has been thinking about her lately. Do they know why she was having such a hard time?? It's crazy, but hopefully the worst is over. Give her a big hug for all of us.

They don't know what brought this on. She's been having a hard time with her asthma lately & they were talking about changing her meds. She was getting a cold and whenever she gets sick her asthma gets really bad. Hopefully they can get her on some stronger medicine so this won't happen again.

Who really reads my blog???

Well I haven't been good at updating my blog the past little while & often wonder if anyone really even reads my blog. I enjoy reading blogs of friends and family & get bothered when they don't update for months at a time. Well now I'm that person that isn't updating my blog. (oops!!) So I wanted to pass along a little bit of news and happenings at our home lately. Parker is enjoying being a 1st grader. He loves school & has just recently found a true love of reading. His favorite books right now are the Junie B. Jones (series) & The Magic School bus (series). He can't wait for spring to be here so he can start playing soccer again. Hannah keeps us busy. She is definitely a girl and has the attitude that goes along with it. She enjoys her dance class every week and preschool 2 X's a week. She's finally been convinced to write her name H-a-n-n-a-h instead of H-A-n-n-A-H. This battle took a while cause she insisted that she needed c

Haircut

Hannah has been telling me for months that she needs a haircut and that Janae needed to do it. On Sunday afternoon we went to my mom's house and Janae was there to cut Hannah's hair. She told Janae that she wanted a princess haircut. Here's one of the only before pics I took. The princess cut in progress. (That is my brother Kevin in the background) All the hair that was cut off. Drying the hair Janae & Hannah after the princess cut was done. (So Cute!!!) Thanks Janae you are so good at what you do. WE LOVE YOU!!!!
