I am SOOO BLESSED!

I am truly blessed to have such great friends AND a wonderful family! Especially my husband! First I want to say thanks to everyone who came to see us at the hospital: The Lodens, they even came the night before and played games with us, brought movies and tangerines! (and rescued the Jays!) Who knew that exactly a week later they'd be holding their own precious 11 fingered baby boy! (just kidding joane, you know i had to throw that in there! :-) and if they couldn't do anymore... they also brought us some yummy baked potatos and bbq chicken! Perfect! The Kids's Nana (Rabbit!) known as Robin Skagen to many others... Thanks so much for the flowers and the really cute outfits! And thanks for being such a special friend to our family!

Haley and SB used to be in nursery together, but now, they've been seperated for sunbeams... but that doesn't slow their friendship! The Norris ladies even stopped by for a valentine visit! complete with cookies and a way cute outfit! Thanks for being awesome friends jill!!! Our Dr, dr myers from the women's pavillion at northport. Totally great doctor! even got a thankyou letter in the mail from her for being apart of our family's special event! what a thoughtful thing to do! i kinda hope that we will be able to repeat the experience before our time is up here in alabama! The most awesome of nurses ever! Sue and Virginia! they stayed with us the entire time and took EXCELLENT care of us!!!!

  • Now, that's all that i had pictures of, but i wanted to also say thanks to Alix Hatter for visiting and sharing stories with us, as well as for the great bag! Megan Slazek for stopping by before she had to go to work and for bringing those yummy cookie things! Jenni Ennis came by just before we left too after she got out of the gym! what a friend! and also gave us a reallysweet outfit! The Tews came to see what the fuss was all about too! Amy has totally bailed me out, especially by watching the kids the first night we were in the hospital until my mom was able to pick them up the next morning. She has been such a life saver! Robyn and Mckayla Myers visited as well, which was amazing in and of itself since Robyn forgets a lot of things... she means well and has such a sweet heart! love you robyn!

  • And then there's the food and support after we got home! I already mentioned the Lodens, Debbie Church sent some food home with brad from work, yummy ham, potatos veggies, rolls and salad, AND an apple pie (which is great for breakfast too)! mmmmmmm. Kelly wyatt brought us some tator tot casserole and WARM brownies... delicious! Stephanie Andrus sent over some burritos with their yummy spanish rice AND of course... more brownies. She also was a saving grace by taking sb and tj for the morning and lunch hours a few days that first week after my mom left, letting me get some homework done, and some much needed sleep! On Tuesday, Jenni Ennis and her family treked all the way out here with a tender roast and OHMYGOSH the best salad i've ever eaten! AND the most yummiest cake ever... even more yummy in a bowel of milk! Then Terri Hansen also came over for a few hours to tend to the kids while i finished a paper AND she left us dinner! sweet meatballs, rice and OF COURSE MORE BROWNIES!!!!!!

  • AND THEN!!!! we have friends that haven't been able to be in town that we really love and appreciate too! Annalie has called almost everyday to check up on me and make sure i'm not going too insane, Jen has checked in on us too... oh how we miss you guys! i'm still working on a good little video clip of sb for your "girls" jen! My good friend from az that we haven't actually talked to in a while sent us the most precious card and outfit, thank you Sharp family!

  • EVEN The department where brad works gave us a towel with kempton's name on it with matching washcloth! Extreemly Thoughtful of them, thankyou!

  • AND to top it off, brad has been so sensitive to how tired and aggitated i've become (poor guy) and last night suprised me with a spectacular foot bath and foot rub! What a wonderful hubby i have!!!!!

  • I Just want to say a huge thanks to everyone who has helped us out and sent along good wishes! our family is TRULY greatful!
