Where Have You Been?

I apologize for it being so long since I added anything to the blog. We have been very busy! We spent a few months looking for a dream home and we have found it! We are under contract to purchase a newly remodeled home which was built in 1964. It is in a wonderful, beautiful neighborhood in Woodway, TX. I promise to post photos in the next few days. ***So, if you know anyone looking for a great deal on a 2003 double-wide manufacutured home with 2248 sq ft - I'm your guy!

Madelyn is doing great in 1st grade. Mrs. Gibson is a wonderful teacher and Madelyn really likes her. She has also been doing gymnastics, but is still trying to decide if she wants to continue to participate. I think she really excels at it - but we all know just how much she likes being told what to do! :)

Justin is almost through the academy, finishing classes this week. He will take his Texas Peace Officer exam on Sunday the 15th. If, I mean when he passes, it looks very promising that he has a spot as a deputy. That's all I can say about that - don't want to jinx him...

My sister-in-law and her husband found out in October that they are expecting twins. They have struggled with fertility issues their entire marriage. They have a beautiful 7 year old daughter - Hollie - and were so excited to find that through a frozen embryo transfer (FET) they were pregnant again with Kamryn Hope and Brooke Ashlyn. At 13 weeks they learned that Kamryn had a congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) and will need lots of medical care immediately upon her birth. You can follow Kamryn Hope's blog at http://thestuddardfamily.blogspot.com/. Please keep Stephanie, Shawn, Hollie, Brooke and Kamryn in your thoughts and prayers. I am sure they will appreciate it.

How am I just now seeing this blog??? I know you must have told us about it, but I must have forgotten. So sorry. I blame the pregnancy. Thank you so much for mentioning Kamryn in your blog, and her potential struggles she's about to face. As you know we're worried sick, but have faith and HOPE that she's going to be a CDH SURVIVOR!!!

I love that I can keep up with Madelyn's school work too. What great handwriting she has.

Give my love to all! Hi Jen. Love you and miss you!

Love, Stephanie
