2013

Looking forward to a new year and the new adventures that come along with it. A year watching my two favorite little people grow and discover the world. Albeit the toughest job in the world I'm so grateful to spend each day with them. I pray I can always spend this time with them because it goes by too quickly. It seems like yesterday they were just born.

I pray this year our prayers are answered and we can sell the restaurant achieving our goal of moving closer to my parents.

I pray for our health and the health of our loved ones.

I pray Truett continues to get stronger each day and the doctor visits grow further apart.

I pray Emerson and Truett continue reaching their developmental milestones.

I pray we all grow closer to God.

I pray our marriage grows stronger and we make each other a priority like our children.

I pray I become more selfless and help others in need.

I pray Justin and I can achieve and sustain our healthy lifestyle goals.

Thankful for a blessed year and looking forward to 2013!!!

Merry Christmas!!!

CHRISTMAS

Both babies woke up early Christmas morning at 3:00am running fever and later diagnosed with the FLU. YUCK! In spite of feeling bad they still opened presents and had a little fun in between rest.

Christmas Eve before the FLU hits!

Truett's 1st Birthday Party!!

We celebrated Truett's 1st birthday the day after Thanksgiving. We had a great time with family celebrating this amazing little man. Pics below. Enjoy!

Honored

Truett Graham I could not be more proud of you. You truly are amazing. As I rocked you to sleep the other night my eyes filled with tears of joy. You have accomplished so much in 12 months. When you decided you wanted to crawl you did. When you decided to walk you did. I thank God for your strong will or you may not have achieved every milestone despite obstacles. I am forever honored to be your "Mama".

THANKFUL 2012

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving and couldn't be more grateful to all be together at our home. We had amazing food and amazing company. We did our grateful basket this year but I failed to take pictures of it. It was fun to see Emerson get so involved in being thankful. We are very thankful to all the amazing doctors and nurses that helped Truett so our family could be at home together this year.


Emerson took credit for the Turkey even though Daddy got up to cook it at 4:00 AM!!

Everyone had handmade place cards made by Emerson & Truett

We hung all of Emerson's artwork from school and home as our table decor.

HAPPY 1ST BIRTHDAY SWEET TRUETT!!!

What. A. Year. This year I have experienced more emotions than ever before. I have never felt more terrified, amazed, grateful, blessed, or overwhelmed in the 34 years before you were born. We were presented challenges the moment you arrived. You continue to fight hard no matter what obstacles come your way. Your resiliency amazes me and every person around you. Your smile lights up the world. Your laugh is contagious. The way you look at your sister brings pure joy to my heart. I don't know how I will ever say "no" to those big beautiful blue eyes. You have strengthened my relationship with God. I thank you for your strong will or you may not have been able to accomplish all you have in 12 short months. Through two major surgeries you are eating, crawling, and walking like a champ. I am honored to be your mother. Thank you for completing our family and being the best son a Mom could ask for. I can't wait to see what great things the Lord has in store for you.
