This Wonderful Thing Called Life: March Snow Day!

March Snow Day!

Weather in the south is crazy, but we love it! Literally, we were outside playing in flip-flops and 2 days later we were outside playing in this:

Our day began with chocolate gravy, biscuits, sausage, and eggs! YUM! AJ sure is getting good at making this and I know that would make her Great Granny McCall so very happy; as for Hilton, well, he is really good at eating this!

Then we played outside for a little while. The temps were in the teens and it snowed on us while we were out there, but I just had to let the kids go play in it (even Louie had a great time) :) We probably only stayed out for about 30 mins until the 2 human kids started to whine.

SO then we came in for hot chocolate, marshmallows, a movie, and a nap :)

Louie, the Boxer

Buster is 4

Our 2nd little blessing, Hilton Isaiah, was born 3 weeks early via an emergency c-section also because of preeclampsia. He was already 8lbs8oz and spent 9 days in the NICU because of a spontaneous pneumothorax (popped right lung); he also had a heart murmur and had to have a blood transfusion his very 1st night. Poor guy suffers from febrile seizures, and also took physical therapy for about a year b/c of delayed gross motor skills. We are so thankful to have this little man blessing our lives.

Puppy is 2

Our 3rd blessing, Weston Julian, was born 5 weeks early via another C-section because of preeclampsia. This pregnancy was a rough one: at 24 weeks I started having severe stomach pains and at 28 weeks had an emergency umbilical hernia surgery, and have been on bed rest ever since because of preeclampsia. At 32 weeks I started having daily headaches and frequent migraines (at least 2 a week). At 33 weeks our ultrasound technician discovered my amniotic fluid was decreasing and he was not showing much growth, so now we started twice a week visits and at least 1 ultrasound each week to keep a closer eye on him. We are incredibly thankful that our last little blessing arrived safely and weighed 5lbs 13oz and did not have to go to the NICU.
