Trial Run

Last night, Uncle Scott had his first ever babysitting duty while Daddy and I went to our church group.  I prayed that this would go smoothly and without a hitch and it did!  Uncle Scott made it out alive, without any scars!  Yahoo!  Next time we'll see if Uncle Scott can handle bedtime. :)

So attached when Uncle Scott went to the bathroom, Bug went searching for him.


Someone's about to get a kiss!

Lucky man.



That curly mop on her head is her real hair.  It's insane how the curls keep getting tighter and tighter!

Bug even got to practice her photography skills!


After Uncle Scott left, Mommy and Daddy were bombarded with kisses and hugs for about half an hour from a Bug that obviously missed us.  We loved every minute of it!

Thank you, Uncle Scott for babysitting while Mommy and Daddy got some quality time to refresh themselves at their church group.  We are so blessed to have you around!

Church group was amazing, as always.  It's a great time for the hubs and I to gather ourselves together and to re-charge for another week, hopefully serving as a great example to Bug of what working as one, with Christ at the center, is like.  We have some pretty amazing friends that help us along the way and serve as a living example of Christ to us and that remind us that we are not alone in our journey.  God is so good and we are so blessed.

Because of the day-to-day activities, we often fail to recognize that we are never alone.  Walking back to our car around 7:30pm, I looked up and saw this.  Darkness all around and light still shining around and highlighting the cross.
What an awesome reminder that we are never alone in our journey and aside from our family and friends, Christ is always with us. 

God Bless,
Kat

4, 5, 6, 7 and 8 month Cub (9, 10, 11 too)

Clearly I've missed a few monthly updates of the Cub.  I apologize.  We were busy and life has literally taken us for a whirlwind ride.  To be really honest, I lost a lot of motivation to write these past few months because I've every time I started to write, all I could think to write about was my grandpa, Papang, how much I've missed him, and the endless tears that came out when I thought of him.  Every time I reflected back on the moments with my kids and my family, I seemed to cry, thinking of how much he's missed even in the short 5 months he's been gone.  After months of tears and prayers, I feel like I'm officially starting to feel like I'm healing.  While I know I may not heal completely, I can function without tears flowing from my eyes every moment of silence. Cubby has grown quite a bit (to say the least) since my 3 month update.  Here is the gentle giant's growth in months 4, 5, 6, and 7. This weekend, Cubby turned 8...

"Thank you for being a friend..."

[And now, a short introduction with the theme song to the sitcom, The Golden Girls] "Thank you for being a friend, Traveled down the road and back again. Your heart is true your a pal and a confidant. And if you through a party, Invited everyone you ever knew... You would see the biggest gift would be from me, And the card attached would say thank you for being a friend." This morning, Rue McClanahan, who played Blanche Devereaux on my favorite show, The Golden Girls, passed away. If you know me, you could understand how upset I might be.  (Quote from Blanche:  " There is a fine line between having a good time and being a wanton slut. I know. My toe has been on that line." ) The Golden Girls was, is and will always be my favorite show...EVER. Within the last few years, both Estelle Getty (who played Sophia) and Bea Arthur (who played Dorothy) passed away as well and that in itself was a tragedy; for we all know what an amazing duo they made!    (Quote fro...

What if...

I was on the phone today with my brother, Kyle, and was telling him about my emotionally charged moment in a parking lot as I dropped off the hubs at work after having lunch with him.  As I drove through the aisle of the parking lot, a parked car quickly backed out of it's spot without looking.  My natural instinct, of course, was to stop, rather than move forward.  Thankfully, however, the car quickly stopped itself from hitting the front passenger side of my car, where the hubs was sitting.  I pulled into a spot to calm myself down.  My heart was racing.  Wyatt turned to me and asked, "Are you okay?"  I just could not find the words to respond.  (Strange, I know.)  I was breathing so heavily and I think he realized I was about to freak out and said, "We're fine.  She didn't hit us."  He was right.  The driver had stopped quickly enough and everyone was safe.  However, I still could not get myself to calm down.  3, 2...
