Summer Fun

Nothing says summer more than ice cream dripping down your kids faces, sticky tummys, and a belly filled with cold goodness. Our new nightly pastime, ice cream on the front porch. I will say it usually ends in Mariah in a diaper and Chase in his underwear running around under the porch light. I LOVE it!!!


My little sweet pea really enjoys dressing up at friends houses, so Jordan and I bought her a Cinderella outfit of her own. She twirls around like she is the most beautiful little girl in the whole world (of course she is). She puts on the whole bit: dress, necklace, earings, shoes and the purse. I love this new joy of hers, and am enjoying every minute of it.

Updated pictures

My Aunt Lolly found the most awesome train cookie cutters for Chase, and he loves them. I had to hide them for a couple of days after we got them because he just wanted to carry them around as toys.



Valentines Day cupcake faces. I got away with pink icing and strawberry cupcakes, but with Chase around I had to add sprinkles!

Baby #3

Yes yes, the news is in. I am pregnant. Things have been crazy starting in January when the doctors were unsure whether I had a miscarriage or not. Then I found out I was prego in February. Then I went to my first doctor appt to see the baby and there was no baby present. Doctors said it was a blighted ovum, where the baby never forms, which is common after a miscarriage. Two weeks later we went for another ultrasound and there it was, a baby and a heartbeat (164 bpm). Wahoo!! Then the tech noticed a subchorionic hemorrhage, basically a huge blot clot that can dissolve, stay the same or rupture at any time causing a miscarriage. Then today, I was hit with the news that i have an anti E antibody. From what I have gathered, antibodies are a part of your blood type and I am probably ee. Apparently Jordan may be eE and either Mariah or the possible miscarriage was also a carrier of the E and our blood mixed and now I have the E antibody. Now my body is showing rising levels of this antibody that can be detrimental to a baby that is not of the same E type. So, I have to have blood tests monthly to see if the levels are rising or not. So a lot to pray about, but nothing is impossible for my living God. Please keep us in your prayer, for peace and patience!
