Warm Weather is Here!

Our sweet, little neighbor, Lilly, has been wanting us to have a cook-out again, and of course, so did we! Noah built a fire in our fire pit, filled the pools with water, and the fun began! All of the kids enjoyed roasted hot dogs and marshmallows, and I definitely ate my share of smores! I have found berry and caramel marshmallows, which are extremely tasty with a piece of dark chocolate on it! If you can't build a fire, you can build the smore on a cookie sheet, and then, cook in them in the oven on broil for just a few seconds. It will be worth the few seconds to make!

  1. Little mustard face! So cute. Never thought about dark chocolate on a smore. I'll be trying it next time we have them!

This morning Magdalena left this world to be with Jesus. There really isn't too much else I can say but to please pray for Julie and Noah. For now, they do not want any calls, emails or visits. I will you keep you updated on the arrangements.

Hello World!!

Here are my first pictures! Julie is on her way to the room and doing great. As we have more pictures, I will get them up for you to see. Stephen

Making the Decision to Not Make the Decision

I get the question, "Are you going to have any more kids?" asked often. Since finding out Magdalena's diagnosis it was always a tough question to answer. We had always envisioned ourselves with multiple children, but there was always the lingering thought of having to endure this difficult situation again. Although it is less than a one percent chance that we would have another child with T18, the percentage still exists. When pregnant, I said multiple times that I couldn't do this again and my mom constantly reminded me that it is not always that difficult. Being pregnant was physically uncomfortable, but I was referring to the constant emotional exhaustion. As Magdalena continued to do well, Noah and I weren't sure when to begin thinking about other children. Noah and I discussed that I would work really hard at losing my weight, but I was willing to be five pounds more than what I was originally. People poked fun at my not eating Magdalena's birthday cakes
