Can you believe it? This year is gone! Where did it go? I find myself looking back at Reily's pictures and I just can't believe that he has been in this world for over a year now. My sweet little baby is growing so fast.
I hope that everyone had a great CHRISTmas. Ours started out a little stressful. Todd has been dealing with gallbladder attacks for sometime now, but the man in him wouldn't go to the doctor. Well, last Tuesday morning he woke me up at 5am. He had been up in pain since 1am and he said that he just couldn't take the pain anymore. We went straight to the ER and he was admitted to Baptist East and had surgery the next morning to remove his galbladder. I was scared to death. I know that I serve an awesome God, but that human insinct to worry just takes over. I had every scarey thought going through my head. But, thankful, after 2 hours of surgery (the doctor said that he gallbladder was very "sick") he was wheeled down the hall and we were at home by 9pm that night.
I know that I tell Todd everyday that I love him, but I had never been so happy to see him as I was the first time that I saw him after surgery. I am going to strive to be better at showing him how much I love him.
2010 here we come!
Until next time...

It's Christmas Time
I know that it has been awhile since my last post, but where in the world people find the time to do this everyday or every other day is beyond me.
I have to say that I have never been more excited about Christmas as I am this year. For Reily's first Christmas he was was only 3 weeks old. I was still recovering and adjusting to motherhood so I really don't remember being this excited. Now that Reily is a little older I am about to burst just waiting on Santa to come visit. Reily has brought more joy and love and happiness to my life than I know how to express.
I remember when I was a child my mother would walk around a store with a shirt or something that she wanted. Of course, before we left the store my sister and I would find something that we wanted as well. It never failed, my mother ALWAYS put back whatever she wanted to be able to buy the things that my sister and I had picked out. The older I got the more I noticed this. I never understood why she did this, until I had a child of my own. It won't bother me at all if I never got another pair of shoes. What is important to me now is knowing my little boy is happiest little boy in the whole world. Thank you, mom, for showing me and Leslie what true unconditional love is all about. I know that you would go to the ends of the earth for both me and Leslie, and I would do the same for Reily.
Until next time...
