Home Again!

After six days without power, we finally came home on Sunday to OUR house with POWER!!! YEAH!!! It is so great to be home again! We are VERY thankful to all the friends and family that let us stay with them, but man there is just nothing like your own home with your own things!! Thank you all so much for the thoughts and prayers!

I would also like to ask you to say a few prayers for Jill's brother's fiance. They found out that they were pregnant during all this weather chaos and she has had some bleeding. They did go to the ER last night and had an ultrasound. The doctor said that everything looks good- her cervix is closed and they could see the baby in the sac. She is still too early to see/hear the heartbeat (5 weeks), but does have a doctors appointment next week. It is the same doctor I had, which we LOVE!! So I know she will be in good hands. Just please say a prayer that the baby is okay and that she doesn't stress too much. I greatly appreciate it!!!

We finally got to take some 9 months pictures and I will post those soon because I haven't downloaded them yet. Teeth update-- We are still waiting for the two pesky top teeth to come on through those gums. They are so swollen and red, and that is causing some sleepless nights for all of us! It just looks like they hurt so much:( However, he is still a trooper as always:)

Jill goes back to school tomorrow-yuck! I will definitely miss her lots. I will probably go back to school on Wednesday. There are still so many people in shelters because their homes do not have power and some do not have water. There was a lot of damage in the community, but people are getting things back in order as best they can. Just send some prayers to Kentucky for all of those that are still not home!

God bless you all!!!

I was one of the lucky ones who did NOT lose power. I did however take in 5 refugees! I'm glad you guys got power. There are a lot here still without. Braden crawling was SOOO cute! Hope all is well!

Oh, I'm so glad to hear you are home and safe. Your sister in law is in my thoughts. I had bleeding off and on throughout pregnancy, and it all turned out fine. But it's scary.
Oh, the fun of crawling. I am now putting gates up because G is either on the stairs or in the cat food/water bowls.

Glad you guys are back home. We were displaced for a couple days and it is so hard to be away from home! Especially with a little one.

Prayers for your brother's fiance... hope all is okay.
