June 2008

Here it is, June 13th, already! WOW!! Kayleigh is four weeks old, today! She is more aware of her surroundings, now and continues to grow and becomes more a part of our daily lives. It's just amazing...all of it! Of course, Kayleigh has been a "part of us" for the last ten months! ;)

There seems to be so many things happening in our family, right now. My mom has been here since the night we had to goto the hospital...funny, huh?!? "How did you plan that one, Mom?" Seriously, we're so glad she made it! (She stayed with Samuel and Rhiana for us.) Mom has been helping out so much! She stays with me while Todd is at work, and then she works at Lowe's on his days off. It's been working out well. We also have fun watching movies and shopping a little, or like tonight, she's willing to watch the two oldest while we go out for a "date night". I won't like it when she leaves! (That is something we haven't figured out yet, either.) Mom is also a big help when it comes to giving Todd and I advice. Advice on anything and everything! Mostly, on child-rearing. It's such a blessing! Thanks-a-bunch, Mom!

Now, as for Todd, he is looking into all kinds of possibilities as to what kind of work he would like to be doing. He is interested in land developement, personal sawmill business, aviation maintainence facility, rapid-response team for private jets, apartment building and maintainence, semi-truck driving, management in aviation, etcetera and etcetera! The list just never ends. Of course, as his wife, I am supportive of just about everything and just continue to pray that God can show him what he is meant to do and open the right doors for it to come about; hopefully, soon. Both Todd and I want more for our family than what we are experiencing, right now.

One thing Todd has done in the last couple of weeks is apply for flight benefits from work; that is a major plus! We can fly just about anywhere, now! Even to Europe, twice a year!!! I want to go everywhere! Of course, we're planning a trip to Florida, soon. We hope to be able to get down there for the July 4th weekend. Everyone there wants to see Kayleigh Grace and I especially want to see my sister, Haley and her family. We haven't been to Florida since last summer; it just seems sooo long ago! Jeffrey and Haley's little boy, Vincent "Monty" has grown so much this first year and I can't wait to see him. Rhiana wants to go swimming in their pool and also wants to visit "Auntie Haley" and "My Vincent".

Enough for now....
