I can not believe that it has been like 6 months since i have posted anything.
I am going to try and do some catching up.
I am pregnant with a precious baby boy-due on April 14th. Everything is going perfect so far and we pray each and every day for continued good health for me and the baby lindsey.
My little sister celebrated her first year of marriage 2 months ago-wow, time surely has flown. I am so happy that she has found the love of her life (who also happens to love my daughter with all of his heart but literally loves to aggravate the p-turkey out of me).
ACL continues to grow up before my own eyes. She will start pre-k at East Rankin in August- God Bless the teachers there as they will have both my niece and nephew there as well. And when those 3 get together, it gets rather rowdy! I truly can not wait until my sister has a baby- i know they are waiting for a while which is good- but i can not wait to spoil the heck out of them! I see the love that Charlsey and TJ both have for ACL and it is an amazing love!
I have left the Bank and started to work with my mom at Heart and Hand, Inc. and Oh my goodness- i should have done this long ago. I truly made friends for life at the Bank but i can still be friends with them and not work there. I am home every day by 3:30 and Addison and I have time to play outside and then cook supper for Ben.
I have come to realize in the past few weeks that I would be nothing without my faith in God, my very supportive husband, my dedicated mom, dad and mother in law, the love for and of my daughter, without the understanding of my sister, and the love from other family and friends. I am truly understanding what uncondtional love is! I am truly 1 lucky woman!
Well,
Until Next Time

Fast Pace
It seems as if the last month is a blur. We have been going and going...and now i am at a standstill. ACL and I got sick about a week ago and the DR's are saying that it probably was Salmonella poisoning. We still went to Atlanta last weekend to go to Six Flags and to the Aquarium. I am so proud of how ACL acted even though she probably didn't feel up to it all. She never cried or complained, she had the best time.I don't know if you have ever had it but it is some tough stuff. ACL finally got through it and we had thought that i was over it but this weekend turned out differently. I was sick all weekend but tried to not be a party pooper. Yesterday, we were at my sister's house and after the TERRIBLE loss for the Ole Miss ReBEls, i layed on the couch an fell right asleep. So if i am not feeling any better by tomorrow i will be going to the Dr. to get her to check me out and make sure i get to feeling better. and the all the Hurricane's! At least we were spared by Gustav now we have to worry about IKE!
But i best be running now, We are off to the Circus~
Until next time,

Update...
Wow, a lot has happened since the last post. Memaw Billye continued to get worse about 2 weeks ago and the entire family held vigil with her. We all left August the 3rd and sadly she passed away at 7:10 am on August the 4th. Her daughters were with her to the last breath. Mom called me on my way to work to let me know. It hit me hard that my grandmother, my daughters "Special Grandma" was gone..No more 'Good Morning Memaw, How are you feeling today'! So after the phone call i went to work to get some things done before i left to be with my mom. Well I left work around 9:00 am so i could be with Mom when the funeral home came and got Memaw. It was so hard seeing them roll her out but knowing that she was already in heaven with Papaw was comforting! I never imagined that this day could get worse....
After the funeral home people left we all met at the Funeral Home to start planning her funeral. Well, CGM's phone rang and it was BBL and I told her that i would call him back! I glanced at my phone and noticed there were 8 missed calls...4 from BBBL and 4 from my mom-in-law...I knew something was wrong so i immediately called BBL and he asked if i had talked with anyone from work...Well No was my answer and his next words shook my world...He said..They were just robbed at gunpoint...I fell to my knees...! First of all, That is like my family and someone had stolen not only money but comfort from them and Second, I was supposed to be there and they had to get another teller from a different office. I automatically felt guilty. We are fortunate that no-one was physically harmed but mentally they were harmed. It was pretty awesome that one of the girls that was there said that threw the entire robbery you could hear prayers being said. How awesome!
Almost 2 weeks later...things are slowly getting back to normal although Memaws presence is surely missed but she is in no more pain. Please continue to pray for my family during this time.
Work is getting back to normal, although 2 people have resigned their positions from the bank. Please continue to pray for our safety at the Bank! I am tired and going to bed but i will finish updating later!
Until Next Time

WORK IN PROGRESS
Please excuse this mess that i call my Blog!!! I am currently trying to figure out how to make my blog have 3 columns and i am failing miserably! If you could help please send me a message to help me out a little!
Things are not good for Memaw Billye, my mom's mom, she had a stroke Saturday and is currently on Home Hospice. She has completely lost ability to swallow and is now not eating. We are going to visit this afternoon after work. It is sad not knowing when i walk out that door, if i will ever see her alive again...So sad! Please keep my family in your prayers!
Last night BBL and I took ACL to gymnastics..She loves it and as each week passes by she is getting better. BBL built her a balance beam off the side of her playhouse so she can practice each day! She is even beginnning to get the concept of HOPPING! I know it sounds funny but the poor child could not figure out how to Hop!
Until Next time!

Thankful...
We had a wonderful weekend but as usual, not long enough. We celebrated BBL birthday all week and he has yet to determine what he wants...grill..new gun...those are on his lists of wants!
I was soo excited to get home on Friday because the brick masonry guys were there to brick my new laundry room and it looks fantastic! Hopefully we will be putting the sheet rock this week and then Painting...whoo hoo! Saturday we went to eat lunch with Memaw Billye to celebrate her birthday. She is doing fair, just in a great deal of pain; so please keep her in your prayers! Then we were off to Hog Creek deer camp, where Dad just got voted in to be a member! We rode 4-wheelers, ran over a snake( it was already dead) and saw where some alligators had been sunbathing on the sand by the Pearl River! The rest of the weekend we were at home playing with the Horses and Dogs! Ben jumped on Sunny and Addison and I jumped on Doc bareback and rode in the pasture! Oh what fun it is to live in the country! Until next time...

It has been a while....
There have been some changes since the last post, so i am going to try to do an update!
BBL has started a new job and he is home now...It is so nice having him to help me pick up lil bit from daycare, but most of all just having him home at night. We had gotten pregnant and 11 weeks later we had a miscarriage, but throught it all we have remained faithful knowing that our heavenly father is going to take care of us! We go back to the DR soon to make sure everything is OK for us to start trying again! :)
We have enjoyed the Summer and we have even decided to start looking at getting a swimming pool. We are currently trying an above the ground pool to see if we are ready for the work that goes into having a pool. Within the first 2 weeks ACL could swim all by herself, when we are in the pool she just plays and plays. This past weekend sis and brother-in-law came over to eat dinner and go swimming with us and we had a wonderful time. We were in the kitchen cooking when ACL came in and asked TJWM to look at her hair in HER HANDS....Yep she had decided that she wanted bangs...I know I know it could have been worse because she only cut her bangs but man, it took forever to get those things to grow out! But it is just hair and it will grow back and the SCISSORS will be put up out of the way!
BBL has a birthday this week...So Happy Birthday, we love you and Hope you have a great day tomorrow!
Until next time....
