rough couple of months

So I wanted to do a quick post so that people don't think I disappeared off the face of the earth or something. Sorry about the lack of posts, I'm sure you've all been beside yourselves because I haven't posted lately! As many of you know I had a miscarriage in July and then we finished out summer and things got crazy getting Parker ready for Kindergarten. This past week Kaden got the flu (complete with throwing up all over my bed at 2 am) and then all three kiddos got the cough/cold nasty nose combo. To top it all off I had another miscarriage and had to go in for another little fun surgery on Saturday and so things are a little nuts around here. I just wanted to thank everyone for their kind words and tasty treats! We have felt very blessed and I must say I have the best Husband in the world. He has been amazing as well as my family - I am so glad we get to live here so close to everyone I don't know what we would do without thier love and support.
As rough as things have been, there is some exciting things going on as well. This Thursday I take off with my Mother in law and my Mom and sister and aunts and grams for a two day trip in Disney world and then a fabulous 7 night western carribean cruise. I am excited and I think it will be just the break we all need! Once again kudos to the Husband for taking on 10 days of kiddos with no help from me! What a guy!

Sara! I am so sorry! That is such a hard thing to go through, you are such a strong, resilient person! Hang in there, and this trip is exactly what you need! I am so jealous, your mom is such a fun person, say hi to her for me! Or better yet, pack me in your suitcase!

Way to keep up with everything. You enjoy that nice Carribean vacation. You've earned it.

I'm sorry to hear about your second miscarriage, Sare. That's awful. Right around when a couple folks in your family are having babies which makes it even worse. I'm sorry. If it makes you feel better, I hate your guts and am totally jealous about your cruise! I hope you have fun!

I'm so sorry. Don't you hate it when it seems like everything is going to the dogs! We'll pray for you. Make sure that you take care of yourself. Enjoy your trip. Hopefully, you'll come back refreshed and life will as of a sudden perk up:)

I agree with Jen, you earned this little cruise-y! I hope things are getting better with you, you're "in my heart, you're in my soul" as the classic Rod Stewart would say. Hopefully when you get back, you'll decide that you don't want to murder me anymore and will thus end your talking strike to me...!

There is our timing and then there is the Lord's timing! I had a miscarriage before Joey was born and the month that I was supposed to be having that baby, I was moving (not a fun activity during delivery). We got pregnant weeks after moving here. The Lord knows what we need. Hang in there! Hope your trip was fabulous!
