Hello everyone... we have been so busy that I am just now getting to update. Things are great, busy, but great with us. We had our first shower last saturday... we racked up. We got some cute outfits, lots of shoes, a trunk FULL of goodies, and the cutest Mustage walker ever!!! Here are some pics from the shower.

The trunk FULL of goodies!

They had Riley's name put on the top! Love it!

Not a good picture of the walker, but trust me... it super cute.

Me with the cake... a friend made it.

the WHOLE staff that got to come!!!

Reece watching Riley's presents... he is already a great big brother!

Then Sunday we had my Dad's Deacon Emeritis service... basically he became an inactive Deacon b/c of his health. We had a really bad storm saturday night so the church's power was out and we didnt know when it would come back on. So... we had the service in the dark. haha, not really we just use what sunlight we could, but it was still kind of dark and we had NO sound. But most of my dad's family came in for the service and it was very emotional for everyone. But it was a beautiful service.

the is to show you how dark the gym was for the potluck... but it was really pretty!

My guys!!! Arent they adorable!! Kerry is such a good sport. I have them dress alike all the time.

Here are some funny pictures of Reece. The first two are when he got put in time out for peeing on himself or talking back. haha. He HATES timeout, more so when his daddy is at home b/c they wrestle all the time. Then the other is of him in his Spiderman costume... its big on him but we got it on sale so he could play b/c he loves Spidey.

Spidey - Reece!!

I went to the doctor yesterday. My blood pressure was a little high but nothing out of the norm for me. Riley is fine, I am fine. Ive been having bad back pain for about two weeks but that just comes with it. We got a CUTE canvas for Riley's room. A friend that use to work with Kerry made it. I love it and it fits her room perfect!

Reece and his buddy Nicholas. They havent seen each other in almost a year but you would have NEVER known that yesterday. They play so good together. His momma is one of my dearest friends and I miss her bad. Oh, Nicholas is only 4 days older then Reece.

Potty Training...

Well, its been rough but it looks like we made it. Reece is almost completely potty trained. I say almost because he has to wear a daiper or pullup at night. He hasnt gotten control over that part yet. He does have his accidents too, but its only at daycare and its usually b/c he got caught up in playing. I'm proud of him... he is proud too. He seems to have gotten so big lately. He is going to be a HUGE help when Riley gets here. He loves to do things and feel important... so we are going to have him help us with her to help him adjust to having a lil sister. I will be 30 weeks along tomorrow. YAY!!! If the doctor does what he has said all along we will induce at 35 weeks b/c of my blood pressure. So not much time left at all. I started this new blog b/c I figured it would be easier then the xanga site to update when we have her. Plus it holds MUCH more pictures and if you know me, you know I love taking pictures. :) We have our first baby shower next weekend. Im super excited!!!! It's my work shower and let me tell you how much I love the girls I work with. Some of them have become my closest friends these days.

I wanted to ask you all to pray for us right now. We have alot going on and with me being SO pregnant, Im super emotional. First, my dad is in the hospital right now. He has pnemonia, congestive heart failure, and now his kidneys arent working full strength. So it stresses me to not see them. Im use to seeing my momma everyday and I still see her b/c I go up to the hospital but she is so tired and I am so tired.

Second, Kerry grandpa in florida is very sick with congestive heart failure. He is in a nursing home b/c he is unable to care for himself. It's hard on Kerry but at the same time... he knows Grandpa is in God's hands. We are very thankful to have gone and seen him last october. Pray for his recovery.

Third, this may seem strange but its SO true. My grandpa (my dad's, dad) just got out of the hospital Wednesday with congestive heart failure problems. He is doing much better though and is at home now. He is my only grandpa left and Im ever so attached to him.

Fourth, and lastly. One of Kerry's best friends growing up Allen... his mom died yesterday. It was expected but not this soon. The last they heard was 2 - 4 weeks. So Allen is home (Pine Bluff) and Kerry is spending the day with their family. Kerry was close to Mrs. Joyce as well and was hoping to see her one more time before she passed. So pray for the Jennings family.

On a happier note. We seem to be part of a baby boom at Cedar Heights. We are one of SIX families expecting soon. Plus we have two friends who are expecting as well... one with TWINS! Im so jealous... Ive always wanted twins. :) All from church are really good friends so all of our kids will grow up together. Right now... we know there are two boys and two girls. The others have yet to find out. :) It's exciting!!! OK, pictures are posted below. Enjoy!!
