Sunday- Lake Day

I woke up this past Saturday morning in a total slump. One of my very good friends was having her baby shower and I had really planned on going. I laid in bed for a really long time not wanting to get out or do anything. Once I did I wandered around the house not really knowing what to do with myself. I couldn't go to the shower. I just couldn't. I was totally down in the dumps and no one would want poor pitiful Sarah around. After everything I have been through and all the things I have done since I just can't figure out why showers are so hard. I remember my shower so well. It was wonderful and I was so happy. Maybe that's why.... that was the last time I was with all of my friends and was so happy about Mamie coming. I ran a hot bath and sunk down into the hot water for ah..........about 2 hours. I felt like all the energy in my body had run out. Taylor came in to tell me that his sister and her husband would be there any minute so we could go down to the game. :( Getting ready and socializing was not what I wanted to do. I needed to snap out of it. Being around people would be good for me. We headed down to the game and I ended up having a blast. Taylor and I always enjoy being around Ashley and Drew. There is always a lot of laughing between the 4 of us.
Sunday morning Taylor and I decided to head over to the lake. The weather was amazing. We loaded Gus up in the jeep and headed out. I got to visit with my Grandmother a bit and then Taylor and I drove the boat over to Ashley and Drew's house. Ken and Cissy were there visiting so we got to see them. Ken wasn't feeling very good. He has been having chemo weekly for his lung cancer. After they headed out for Dumas we went out for a swim with the twins. It was a lovely day.
The sky was so pink when Taylor and I were heading back to the house in the boat. It was so beautiful and peaceful. Mamie, I believe, was saying hello to her mommy and daddy.

Taylor let me drive the boat for a few minutes :) I think I would rather sit back and chill instead of drive.

Drew, Ashley, Taylor and I took the twins and Gus out to swim. Gus really likes to be around those two.

Is this not the funniest picture.

Burke is 3!!!!!

Okay I have decided that time is going by way too fast.  Burke just turned 3 the beginning of June!  I can not believe it.  I feel like just yesterday I was in the hospital having the little guy!  We had a fun small family party and he is loving some super hero's right now so that was the theme :)  Silas really wanted to jump out when he walked in and yell surprise so that is what we did :)  Burke is super shy and he really wasn't a fan of it all.  Pibby and Pops got him his first bike and it is SO cute.   I picked up a balloon for all the kids and one special spider man one for Boo.  He has always loved balloons.  He said the sweetest thing....... he wanted to let his balloons go up to Mamie so she would know that it was his birthday.  I couldn't believe he let his special Spider Man one go.  It made me want to cry.  She should be here with us.  ANYWAYS, it was a fun day and I got some pictures of course and a few videos.  Happy 3rd Birthday Burkie BOO!  We love you so so

Baby Burke- Please Pray

Taylor and I went in for our big ultrasound this morning. I am 18 weeks along now, so they were checking out our baby boy closely. They found 2 genetic markers that caused a red flag. One cyst on the brain and his kidneys are enlarged. We need lots of prayers right now. Prayers for these markers to disappear and for our baby boy to be healthy. We also need prayers for our sanity as we wait, hope and pray. We will go back for another ultrasound in 8 weeks (March 31). We were told not to look this up on the internet and would appreciate only positive comments on this situation. God is good and we are leaving it in His hands. Thanks for your prayers, Sarah

NO FEAR!!!

I took the kids to the park this afternoon once the sun came out.  It was so beautiful and we love Woodlands Edge park.  Lots of trees, green space to run and Slides:) Winnie is small but that girl is mighty.  She has NO FEAR when it comes to the slides.  Which is totally different for me since Burke has always been so cautious.  I love days like this.  Feeling very blessed! - Sarah
