Random Thoughts on a Wednesday

I, by no means, have what most people would call an exciting life...but I have a very blessed one, that is something I am sure about. I don't really have one specific topic to blog about but I have several thoughts rolling around in my head and I know one day I will want to remember certain things that went on in my life while my children were small.

Last Friday I took Miss Gabriella back to the doctor for her re-check after having bronchitis. She is finally on the mend after being sick for about 2 1/2 months. Praise the Lord!! She has gained 14ozs in one week...I would defiantly say she is feeling better. She refused all purees and table food while she was sick and would only take a bottle. Her appetite has returned in full force and she is getting so used to being on an eating schedule that when it gets time for a meal she will let you know!!

She was eating cheerios while I snapped these pictures!! =)

Jake played Park and Rec baseball for the first time last year. He basically had never picked up a real bat nor had he used an actual baseball glove before. About a month before his season began, David started working with him and he got to be pretty good by the time the season was over with. Most importantly, he had a really good time playing. Well, it's that time of the year again, so last Tuesday David, Jake, G, and I went up to the park to get some practice in.

 

David is such an amazing daddy!! He teaches a night class now on Tuesdays and instead of coming home and resting before having to go back to school to teach, he would rather go to the park and play with his kids!! Thank you Lord for this amazing man!

We couldn't get on an actual field because they have started locking the gates in the off season. I'm sure it's to prevent damage to the fields, but it was kinda sad that we couldn't let him hit balls on the actual field. But he still did an awesome job and knocked the cover off the ball many times.

 

Princess hung out in the ring sling with me on the bleachers, and as you can tell it was very windy that day. She wanted more than anything to get down and go out there with her brother!!

 

Some exciting news on the home front journey is that we signed the contract on our new house yesterday!!! We have been searching for our home for over a year now and I honestly didn't think it would take us this long to find the right one for our family but God had other plans. I have to realize that HE is in control and I am not!! Right now our closing date is set for 28Feb13, I'm not sure that it will stay that but hopefully it will be very close to it because I REALLY REALLY REALLY want to have G's 1st birthday party there.
