I'm not a good patient!

Well I done the dreaded a week ago and had a hysterectomy. Needless to say I've always considered myself a good patient. I'm not. I'm tired of not being able to do for myself and my house is driving me crazy. Ken was absolutely wonderful and at my every beck and call. He never left my side. But I honestly think he was glad to go back to work this time. He even suggested I may should ask for stronger hormone pills! ha! Maybe we'll get him some! And as usual my wonderful mother has been here helping with laundry and the kids and doing what she can, not to mention dad too. These are definately the times I wish they were just down the road again. But I am getting alot better and like everything else this too shall pass. No I am definately not a good patient and although I may have not shown it the past week, I am so very thankful for my wonderful husband and parents who've been right there for me. I love you guys!!

My precious babies

Well here's my babies. Though I have been informed by Reese that he's not a baby anymore (he'll always be my baby tho). Matthew is the oldest, 14 soon to be 15, and even though this child did not grow in my wound he has grown a place in my heart that he now shares with my other 2. In my eyes he is and forever will be "mine". Then there's my Reese man. Who has just taken on a whole new personality lately. He's growing up. He's now 9 and I feel like he was born just yesterday. He adores his big brother and argues like crazy with his little sister. ha! Both the boys are into the guitar thing. Matthew actually plays and is pretty dang awesome at it. Reese is still sticking to the guitar hero game at the moment but Matthew is talking him into drums I think. They both play soccer and Reese also plays baseball. Well then that just leaves one more. Miss Carleigh Gail. Whew! She's 3 about to be 4 but going on 20! ha! She rules the roost and everybody in it! There's not a day that goes by that I'm not amazed at what comes out of this childs mouth. The picture is of her first day at Easthaven. It was both happy and sad at the same time. She's the baby and well my "baby" now goes to school. She takes dance and she loves to sing. And lets not forget her favorite thing is to aggravate her brothers. ha! Well that's my babies. No they're not really babies but they will forever and always be "my babies"!!!

Title of my blog

In case your wondering about the title of my blog i'll explain. I believe a friend of mine from Meadville also has the same title and I'm sorry Tiff for stealing but I couldn't resist after reading the book. My mother and cousins (April and Kari) all gave me the book "Life in a blender" by Sandi Patty for my birthday last year and I think I have read it about three times now. It has helped me understand and handle some situations that have arose from blending 2 families together. Thanks mom and girls, the book has been a lifesaver for me at times. And sorry Tiff, please don't be mad at me!

New to this

Well i decided to start finally blogging! A couple of friends of mine have blogs and I enjoy them so much I decided what the heck let's give it a try. (and yours inspired me even more Marsha) May take me a little while to get some pictures posted because during the remodeling I seemed to have lost my camera cord (go figure) to load all my pics so bare with me on this.
