Just a Recap of the Holidays

I don't really have a lot to report right now. I've been going to all my different doctors the past month and everything is good. All my bloodwork is in normal range except my Vitamin B-12 and Vitamin D. My Neurologist thinks this is why I am still not sleeping, so she increased the amount of B-12 I'm taking and put me on Vitamin D.

The pregnancy is going great. I have evening sickness more than morning sickness, but it still isn't bad. I have several friends who are pregnant right now and a lot of them are actually throwing up with their pregnancy. Mine isn't that bad. I just get nauseaus. It's not near as bad as chemo sickness though.

Anyways, since there really isn't a whole lot to report, I thought I would just post some pics of our crazy life since Christmas. Hope you enjoy!

Natalie opening her Daughtry CD on Christmas Eve

Emilee very excited that she got a very rare Jonas Bros CD. (Thanks Ebay!)


A special present they get from their Pawpaw every year!


Brown Converse shoes. She now has black, brown, red, black with neon colors, and a blue-grey plaid pair.

Christmas Morning- opening up their stockings from Santa

Nat got her LSU hoodie she wanted! Geaux Tigers!


Showing off her camera and LSU snuggie...


My parents gave the 4 grandchildren matching pajamas to wear at the Lakehouse. Aren't they cute??

Wyatt enjoyed the box!


Next, we had a New Years Eve/Birthday party for the girls! I know...what were we thinking?!?!


The Food


Every guest got a cup, New Year's hat, and Noisemaker...again, what were we thinking?!?!?


Blowing out the candles


Opening presents


The clan. It sure sounded like there were about three times the number of kids here...LOL! I think they had so much fun though! It was worth it!


Cricket and Daisy were hiding in the bedroom during the party! They hung around long enough for the food, but once it was put away, they took off.
So, that's a little bit of what has been going on in our house. We also had a party at my parents house for the girls, but my camera died when I took the first picture, so I can't post those. We also had special dinners on their actual birthday. Emilee requested Taco Stew and then we got a cookie cake for her. Natalie requested Crawfish Bisque and she had a chocolate mousse cake. All in all, we had cupcakes, cookie cake, chocolate mousse cake, vanilla cake, and a chocolate cake in January. It was a LOT of cake!
So, that's about it. Hope everyone is doing well.
Here's a few prayer request I have:
Maria Lorick- she is a friend of my mothers and has been undergoing chemo for several years with several relapse's. She is not doing well and at this point, the doctor's are trying to make her comfortable. Please pray for her and her family during this difficult time.
Sam- going through Chemo, but has "normal-looking" bone marrow. Please pray this is a remission!
Stuart and Candace- join me in praying for a miracle! Stuart is done with chemo and from everything I have heard, he is doing well, but they have another need beyond cancer. We all know God is in the miracle business, so please pray and believe with me that God will give them the miracle they are hoping for.
Papaduck- some issues have come up lately with his health. Please pray that God will show the doctors what is going on and will be able to help him.
Thanks for stopping by. I hope the next time I post, it will be a little more exciting!
With God, WE WILL BEAT THIS!!!
