I just LOVE simple and what is better than a box cake with sprinkles made by my boys for my birthday. Ahh I love it!! How flippen cute?? Little Luke (aka BullDawg) just couldn't keep his fingers out not sure if he is singing or being cute and inching towards it to get his fingers in there again..hehehe. I guess at least when he did get a finger full he shared with everyone around the table. :0) Good news is Cooper can officially write his name all by himself so he signed my card it looks wonderful!!
I have always said I measure a year by my birthday and yep the year is over and here goes another. So here is a brief reflection trying not to look back to much Bernice (Hope Floats) says it is bad luck. I started last year out with my baby having major surgery. The very next night sitting at Dells Children's in the emergency room literally all night with a preemie baby. Hopefully NEVER AGAIN!~ The year moved on and my oldest came down with the Swine Flu now that was some fun times...we literally went 3 months in a row visiting our pediatrician every single week usually on Friday. For the most part it was Luke no one ever warns ya about the ticket the entry you get when you have a preemie baby. Dec 19th got here and I fell down our stairs and got a metal plate and 8 screws in my ankle for Christmas. Not sure if any of you have ever got a gift like this but I have had 2 very tough pregnancies and I will gladly take 3 more than to have to take that pain ever again. Oh me that was awful and still is on some days. We have had a few other medical scares within the extended family but all are well and still kicking. I did fit in a weekend or 2 with my girlfriends for a mommy break sheww that was nice! My parents made it down this year for my birthday and it was a nice break for us all. I thank god everyday for my babies that they are healthy and bring such happiness to us all. Even though we have had a super tough time and learned a lot having a preemie baby it has made us that much stronger and appreciate the simple things in life. I am very thankful for such a great family and to be surrounded by great friends and the awesome support god knows without you guys I wouldnt be where I am... Now here is to a better year and going for NO WHAMMIES!!!~
