Quick Update :-)

I wanted to check in and post  a quick update. My oldest daughter is having some health issues right now and Ive been saying I was going to post pictures from me and Cameron's 14th wedding anniversary dinner earlier in the week. Well I still haven't loaded them in the computer and so that update will probably be later in the week. If you all don't mind, please pray for my daughter Jodee. As for the rest of us, we are just hanging around. We went to church today, then on to my FIL's place and then last but not least my MIL's home. We had our Christmas get together with my MIL and her boyfriend today. The weather is quite rainy and nasty out so that made for a wet day traveling. Well we are all heading to bed soon, so I will go and try to get everyone ready for tomorrow. God bless you all ! Blessings~ Maudie

Sickness

I am still going to be posting once a week. But right now my children are sick. So please say a prayer for them as we try to recover from this yucky cold. Blessings~ Maudie

Finally!

Our new little man a few weeks ago! Isn't God's creation amazing! We've decided on Jonas Heath for his name and I am so excited to get to meet him in real life. He already looks like our other little boys. Another fun fact is  that npw the boys are catching up with our girls. We have 4 girls and soon to be 3 boys. A day I thought I would NEVER see! It makes me sad to think even for a second that if I wouldn't have followed the Lord's leading and had my reversal, I would have misssed out on this precious face. Along with these 2 down below:                                                                     Jackson                                                                     Emily I also wanted to say that I think I am back to blogging atleast 1 time a week. I have thought and thought about it and decided that its something that I want to do. We can hopefully be a witness and an inspiration to other people that read this blog. We are real people l

B-O-Y!!!! We were sure she was a girl, but God is giving us another beautiful boy! Praise the Lord!!!!

Update on Us~

We're still here and breathing! I have decided to try and update my blog weekly from here on out and even upload pictures! My girls think it will be a great place for memories. So this is my first post of more to come. No pictures though, as I need beloved's help to hook my iPhone up to the computer. Our pregnancy is going well. I am actually 8 weeks and 3 days. I am sick, but not deathly sick like I was with Emily. But I do feel worse than I did with Jackson. I have already gained 1 pound and I am anxiously awaiting finding out the gender of this little person. Beloved is going to pay for me to find out the end of September. EEEKKK!!!! Im like a kid in a candy store. I CAN> NOT> WAIT!!!!!!! Did I mention Im excited :-) Anyways.... I just got through making our back to school goody bags that I hand out every year. Our school year starts back Monday and Im starting to be a tad excited about that too. We have lots of ground to cover and until we are caught up to where I am

Some News....

Check out my tickers on my sidebar for a great announcment.... Thats right baby #7 should join us sometime around the end of February 2013! I am thrilled that the Lord has blessed us again although I am very much undeserving! I would covet your prayers as we once again journey down this path! God bless :-)

Summer Check In~

Howdy folks! Its been a long time since I updated. I am still here and doing well. We are in the middle of birthday season here and only have 2 more birthdays to go until October. We have 3 birthdays in May, Emily in June and Savannah in July. So we are usually pretty busy. We are also still doing school since we are "year round" schoolers. I really think education happens all the time even without a text book. Although we do use textbooks. I switched curriculum this past semester and went straight back to my Rod and Staff. They provide a solid education at a great price and they are sturdy books that can be passed down student to student for the most part. And if you are like me, durability means ALOT!!! We have not been blessed again so far, since Jackson's birth in 2011, but we atleast have 4 students that will use my older 2 girls books. I have been thru a rather trying time lately and I will spare you all the boring details, but the Lord is really doing a work in my

Maybe....

I am still here and doing okay. Jackson will be a year old in 2 weeks so time is really flying. I just wanted to pop in and say HEllo. Maybe I'll make a post a little more often. God bless you all friends!

~JOY~

JOY~ Its my word for the year. My online friend Amy suggested that we choose a word for the year and so after I prayed about it, It came to me this morning and it inspired me to pick up my laptop and actually get back on the old blogger <3 ! JOY is something that in real life I lack. I am struggling with having JOY at all. I get up every morning and hope that the day will be better, but usually its not. No this is not one of those sugar coated blog post, that make my life sound dreamy and wonderful, because truth is, right now, its not. My oldest daughter is struggling with some things and I am praying for her so much. My mother, who will be 77 in a few days, is also not that well mentally and physically, she is going down hill too. Its a real struggle to handle all the demands of raising my family, homeschooling, and elder care, all at once. Am I thankful I have all this on my plate? Yes! Because without it, I wouldn't have the people in my life I do. We are struggling with hom
