Wordless Wednesday

Well, it's 15 degrees here this morning and trying to get a cranky 2 year old in a car seat with lots of layers on in a car seat.
As you can see she was so Happy!

Daddy has been sick with a double ear infection in each ear. Last night all she wanted to do was lay in bed with Daddy and watch Elmo. So although he didn't really feel good he played with her for about 30 minutes before bed. This morning she wanted nothing to do with Mommy. Andy stayed home again today...praying that he can start to hear and feel better!

Restful weekend


We had a very low key weekend. It was nice as we head into February and a crazy couple of weeks and weekends!
I finish basketball next Monday and move right into Track on Wednesday. I also have something literally every weekend this month with two out of town trips planned. This weekend is the Women's retreat at our church and I am very excited about it and I think that Andy has a date day planned with Savannah on Saturday :)
Since I really don't want to write it all out I thought I would just bullet things on my or our mind lately...
- Andy has an inner and outer ear infection in both ears ~ makes for a husband that doesn't feel good but is trying to hide it

- Had a great dinner with Jason and Jill on Friday, neighbors on Saturday, and Sean and Jessica (Tuck) on Sunday!

- February means BASEBALL and I am so excited!

- This is my final week of my 2nd trimester...can't believe it has gone so fast
- Ordered Bruce's bedding today, I am excited for it to arrive so we can start getting the nursery ready

- Night with Savannah have been interesting...some nights she puts herself to sleep, other nights she screams. But Daddy and Mommy are standing tough even though it is hard

- Savannah has learned how to throw a fit which is something that neither Andy or I put up with but it does make for discipline that isn't so fun

- Yesterday and Today it is in the 70's but by tomorrow it will be in the 20's...Love Texas weather

- A lot of important people have birthday's in Feb. and we are trying to get presents and celebrate with them!

- Looking forward to Feb 21st when we have a day off from school

I think that is it...I mean I can probably name some more but I thought I would just give you a couple :)

Have a great first week of February!

Prayers Needed!


This little cutie is Weston Golden! He is 6 months old and the little brother of Savannah's very good friend Emily and our friend Billy and Ashley Golden. When Weston was about a month old they found out that he had Biliary Atresia. Which basically means he needed a new liver. They have been on an emotional roller coaster the past 5 months filled with may trips to the hospital in Austin and Houston.
Billy and Ashley have been spliting time in Houston for the past 3 weeks as Weston has been there waiting a Transplant. Basically Billy is here working at my school M-F taking care of Emily then he drives to Houston and Ashley comes back to Austin to work the weekend.
Well today we are praising God and asking for prayers! Billy is on his way to Houston as a possible liver just came available for Weston. The surgery is set for 5 pm tonight!
Please be in prayer that this liver is the right size for baby Weston and that his road to recovery with a new liver is fast and smooth. Billy and Ashley have been told that with a new liver Weston will live a normal life and just have to take an anti reaction pill for the rest of his life.
All my prayer warriors please pray for:
1. Billy's safe travel to Houston right now as he is excited and nervous.
2. For the liver to be the right size and match for Weston
3. For Ashley and Billy as they turn over their precious baby boy to doctors for a transplant
4. For the Dr. and Nurses as they perform the surgery.
5. And for the family of the child that gave the liver
Will keep you updated!
Praying for you Ashley, Billy, Weston, and Emily!!!
