Mississippi...again



Aiden and Papaw Clark

Sucking of the hands

Aiden when he was 9 weeks
We are back in Mississippi for a quick visit! Justin had a week off in between jobs so we decided to come home and visit all the family and friends. We will be returning back to Kansas City for five weeks for Justin to help finish the previous job and then....well who knows! We are not going to Texas anymore as of now. However, I will keep everyone updated where our travels will take us next! Aiden is just growing and learning so much every day! He has developed such a silly little personality. (I wonder where he got that from) He now will put he tiny little fingers around rattles and toys and look at them very intensely, then stick them straight in his mouth. He also absolutely loves to suck and chew on his hands. Such a silly boy! As for now, everything is going great, Ellis is on his way to recovery, and life is just about perfect for us. Oh also, we went to Nebraska furniture mart and went furniture crazy. We bought a new couch, chaise, crib, and dresser. When we get them I will post pictures! I am VERY excited to see them, also to see if they will fit in out apartment! :/ Also, as soon as I am home for more than a day.. I promise to all of my work friends I WILL come visit! Hope all is well with everyone!

Finally Home




















We finally made it home Sunday afternoon after being in MS for a week, Arkansas for a week, then as soon as we got back, we headed to Nebraska for Justin's dad. By the way, Justin's dad is doing GREAT! He is recovering really well. He had a double bypass and an aortic aneurysm repair. Thanks to everyone who took time out to say a prayer for him!! Justin and I are just trying to settle in back to our old routine. Not easy, especially with my little sweetie. Aiden had his 2 month shots last week, he was fussy of course, but since his shots he has had a congested cold (no fever). I am not to sure if it has something to do with the immunizations or not. But we are doing great for now, hope everyone is doing well! I posted some promised pics of out trip out of town!

Prayer Request

Today we are in Lincoln Nebraska. Yesterday Justin came home from work, pulling off his clothes( b/c he was working in the rain) saying "we have to go to Nebraska, they think pop is having a heart attack", so I jumped out of the bed with Aiden and threw everything but the stuff we needed in bags, and off the Nebraska we went. Me, Justin, Aiden and Rufus. So after many tests they found out the Ellis (Justin's dad) has two blockages, (they did an angioplasty on one) and an aortic aneurysm. Many of you know Justin had this same issue two years ago. As of now he will have surgery Friday, which will repair his aortic aneurysm. They will go in and put a graft the whole length of the dilation. I know MANY people read and keep up with my blog, when you are finished reading this, I ask that you take five minutes and say a special prayer for him. God always pulls you through when people come together in prayer. Thanks for all of your support and we will keep you posted.
