Bathtime is soo much fun. She loves it:)
Mimi and Camryn
Okay, I took a little too long to post again but in my defense, it's been crazy around here. First of all I want to say Happy Birthday to my sweet Camryn. I can't believe it's been that long. She is growing so fast. At her 4 month appt. she was 24inches and 13 1/2 lbs. She loves to eat any kind of baby food. She eats about 4 jars a day and drinks around 5-6 oz of milk per day. She's a little oinker. She is rolling over both ways now and I believe she is teething. There is slobber everywhere and let's just face it, 5 poopy diapers a day isn't normal.
Taylor is starting soccer practice tonight. She was really excited about it at first but now she wants to be a cheerleader and play tennis. So we'll start off with soccer, sign her up for tennis and then she will cheer for upwards basketball at the church in November(I think). Charleston Baptist is looking into Upwards Soccer for next year so that will be lots of fun. Daddy may even coach.
Now for some deeper stuff. As many of you know, Jason was laid off a second time and he has really struggled with it this time. It's so hard to find a job in his field these days. God did bless him with 3 options and he has had a hard time deciding what he should do. He didn't feel he had a clear answer from God but he went ahead and accepted a job at a local construction company. Please pray that Jason gets a peace about this job and that the Lord will keep Satan from putting doubt and fear in his heart. I believe he has made the right choice and will do an incredible job but only time will tell. Please pray as well that he will not be let go again and will have the opportunity to learn his new job and grow in knowledge.
Yesterday I got a phone call saying my brother was taking his wife to the emergency room. She had a severe headache, tingling in one side of her face and her arm had gone numb. Of course, we rushed to the hospital to see what was going on. By that time, the majority of her symptoms were gone but they went ahead and did some tests. They found nothing(typical story). They did say there was a chance she had a very small stroke or it could be MS(very very small chance). She will be following up with her doctor so please keep Carissa in your prayers. There is obviously something going on and she is only 22 years old.
My dad has had a lot of problems lately with dizzy spells, heart palpatations, ear and neck pain, etc. They ruled out the heart a while back but recently found that he had numerous bulging discs. He had a nerve block several days ago so we'll see how that goes.
My grandma has had the shingles for a couple of weeks and has not been feeling well so pray for her as well.
There is so much more but I'll spare you the boring details. Now on the lighter side. Jason has received his Associates in Arts and will be getting his Associates in Science this semester. It's been a long time a comin!! We are putting hardi plank on the shed in the back because Jason was embarrassed that the neighbors had to look at that "nasty old thing". The kitchen is fully functioning. It's not complete but under the circumstances I'd say we're doing pretty good.
My brother, Kelly, is starting a part time job leading worship for his church and is looking forward to working full time with them this summer. He's been waiting for this for a long time.
Our friends Tara and Jamie came home from China the other day with their new daughter Moli. She is a doll and from what Tara says "a firecracker". I'm glad Tara has two firecrackers. It's good training for her next half marathon. She won't have to ride the golf cart the rest of the way in. Maybe she finished that race... I can't remember:) My friend Joy just announced she will be having a 4th baby. We are so excited for you guys. I can't wait for you to be bigger than me this summer:)
I just started a Beth Moore study on the book of Daniel. It sounds like it's going to be very informative and I can't wait to see what God is going to teach me. We have a new play group starting this week at a kids gymnasium called Rollie Pollie. Taylor loves it and so do all the other kids. Hopefully this will be a good opportunity for us to get some lost friends to join us and plant some seeds from there. Now I can't wait to see how long it takes me to post again. The pics will come soon. It's so exciting isn't it? I bet I'm keeping all of you on the edge of your seats. Ta Ta for now.
"...Let the name of God be blessed forever and ever, For wisdom and power belong to Him."
