A little behind

I decided I should finally do a little catching up. I have been down and out for awhile, but I'm finally back and thank God I am healed. I just have to take it easy for the next 6 months to keep everything together. Thanks for all of your prayers and everything that everyone has done for me. I am truly blessed and I am looking forward to the days ahead of having this all past me. So please continue to pray for us that everything will stay the way it is supposed to and we also need help financially right now all of the medical bills and time off work have been very hard for us.

Can You say couch potato!!! Halloween 2008 Tyler had so much fun dressing up and getting candy. He really enjoyed it this year.

Daddy's cool

Riding the 4 wheeler with daddy. Tyler can pretty much do it by himself if we would let him.

Need Prayer

I just wanted to ask everyone to pray for me. Some of you may know that I am having surgery this coming Tuesday. I have a lot of confidence that this one will work, but I need prayer to keep my faith strong and that God will heal me. We are leaving tomorrow and will be back sometime at the end of the week. I have been really upset because I have to leave my baby and that is really hard for me. I also have been sick for over a week now and I just need to get better before Tuesday. I need my strength back. It's like a battle every time I try to do something to fix this. I think the devil is really trying to fight me. So please pray for me that I can win this battle. Thank you for everything everyone has done for me during this time. I will update when I get back and when I am feeling a little better.

Branson Vacation

We had a very good time on our vacation. I did end up with a little salmonella food poisioning before we left home, but I still managed to enjoy my self. We went to St. Louis 1st to see the doctor about my surgery. We got very good news. He is almost positive that he can fix me. He has a lot more experience and knowledge about my specific case than the doctors around here. I guess people come from all over the U.S. to see this doctor. So please keep me in your prayers that this is finally the end to all this. By the way I was so thankful that Tyler didn't get food poisioning. I think I got it at the Oklahoma State Fair from the strawberry crepe. That's the only thing that no one else ate with me. Usually Tyler would have been begging me for some, but he was being cranky at the time. Thank you Lord. I never thought I could thank the Lord for my child being cranky. Also another great thing happened to me when we got home. I found my wedding ring that has been missing for at least a month now. Thank the Lord.

Here we are in Eureka Springs. My brother was married in this gazebo. Beautiful there.
Tyler was the best kid ever on this trip barely a cry at all. See him here watching his movie and having a little snack. I thought it was cute.

Cosmic Caverns. I was a little scared in here.

Here's Tyler in Branson at one of the toy stores having a ball.

This big rocking chair was pretty cool.

Trying to Catch Up!!!

I can't seem to stay caught up with my blog. I try though. We have had so much going on lately. Mostly me and my medical stuff. We are going to St. Louis next Wednesday to see a doctor that specializes in my problem. He is supposed to be a very good doctor so I am praying that this guy can fix me for good. It might get a little expensive traveling that far, but it could be worse. I am to the point where I just want to be fixed and as soon as possible. I need to get on with my life and I want another beautiful child and I believe I will get it. I just don't know when God's timing is. I have learned so much through this and it has been so good for me. I believe it is strengthening our marriage also. It has been hard, but God has shown me compassion. Every time I start feeling sorry for myself I try to remember that it could be so much worse and that I truly am blessed. I mean look at this beautiful little boy I have. I never thought I could love some little person so much and I must say I enjoy being the love of his life at the moment too. I know that may not last. In my devotion a few weeks ago it talked about how sometimes God puts us through trials and keeps us there until we can learn to have peace with our situation and learn to fully trust him. I have gotten much better at that, but I am still not all the way there. I'm not sure any of us are all the way there. It's a very hard thing to do if you really think about it. It's weird because it really shouldn't be hard. Well anyway I just ask that every one continues to pray for me. I know there are many people who have been and I am very appreciative. I love you all

This is my kid. I know he's a boy but you got to admit this is pretty funny. He sure thought it was funny.

We went to a parade last weekend and Tyler had a blast. I didn't get very many pictures though.

This was from Labor Day. We had a lot of fun that day. We had a little picnic in our backyard. Isn't it cute?

We also did a little swimming.

New Sandbox!!

Here's Tyler's new sandbox. He loves it. You can definitely tell he is all boy. Well besides the vacuuming he does for mommy every day. That's a good man though. I hope he stays like that. I am so blessed to have such a beautiful little boy.

My Cleaning Boy

What a little helper Tyler is. He is so funny he got this new little vacuum and he loves it. I mean he played with it for hours. What's really funny is he picks up my rugs and shakes them before he vacuums and throws them on the tile. I think he has been watching mommy too much.
