Nascar

NASCAR!!!! My sweet Hubby and Jerrid

Coming around the tracks!
Greg and I-with our Nascar gear!

A couple of weeks ago, Greg and I took a much needed vacation to Dallas with our besties Amy and Jerrid. We went to Nascar and then shopped til we dropped. Let me tell you friends, I am not a sport type person and would rather not even watch pro sports of any kind-but I am TOTALLY addicted to Nascar now! It was so fun! We had amazing seats and a load of fun. We got scanners and got to listen to the pit crews and drivers. We went to watchn Amy's cousin-Justin race. He races the Verizon car as a rookie. He is very good! I left my kiddo's with Greg's mom for the weekend and got 2 full nights of sleep. It was amazing!
Coen and Avry are becoming such beautiful little kids. Coen is trying to crawl and can get up on all 4's. He can say bye-bye and da-da. We got tubes in his ears a week ago and he has been a dramatically different kid since then. He can also tell you when he wants a bottle and gives awesome kisses! Avry is soaking up everything we say. She at church Sunday morning announced rather loudly that she wanted to swim in the swimmin pool up there. In other words, she wanted to take a dip in the baptistry. So then we had a conversation about what the baptistry was for. She asked us about who Jesus' mommy and daddy were and a ton of other questions. I love the innocence of a child.

We will be traveling this weekend and then staying home for a while. I have gotten to really appreciate the time we have at home with the kids. My heart has been really heavy lately missing the time I wish I had with them. I know that God knows best and is faithful and doesn't even fail us. I just have to keep praying for peace and understanding.

Hospital Pictures

Big Sister Avry keeping Bubba Coen entertained
He got way to used to having that bucket around


Baby Jail


Playing with Foy-Pa a couple of weeks ago
Just a couple of pics from our hospital stay. Coen really over all did very well in the hospital despite all the poking they did on him. I do hope we never have to do that again. It was not a fun experience. I am so thankful for Dr. Brodbeck and all the nurses that took care of us in the hospital. They were constantly checking on not only Coen, but myself and Greg when he was there. Avry loved the endless supply of chocolate milk.
We are on the road to recovery and will be seeing Dr. Feist, the Gastrointerologist next Monday. He will determine what else we need to do for Coen. Hopefully we will just need to stay on the medicine and can keep weening him back on formula. Thank you all for your prayers over the past few months. It has definitly been a trying time, but God is good-ALL THE TIME!!!
