Please Pray

update:
My mom is still not doing well her kidney's are starting to fail her and the Dr came in yesterday and told us that she has the early stage of Alzheimer's. They cant do surgery on her yet BC her body is not strong enough. We know that we don't have much time left with her. The Dr told us five years ago that she only had about 2 years to live so we know we are coming to the end of the rd with her.


My mom was taken to Vanderbilt Monday night after she feel at her house. She is now in the ICU. She has bleeding in the brain and that can't get it to stop. So please just say a prayer that the Dr's will be able to stop the bleeding and she gets to come home soon!!

Happy Easter

We had a great Easter and the weather was nice for the first time in several years. We started the day off by going to Church then we came home and went to Brent family for Easter lunch....Since the weather was so nice and we had all eaten to much we thought we would go outside and work all that food off by playing kickball..That was so much fun...I sure was sore the next day. I guess that means I'm getting old!!!

UPDATE!!!

Lane went back to the Dr yesterday and as soon as we walked in the Dr said "well he is walking much better....that's a good sign." The Dr did his exam and new x-rays and an new MRI... after the results came back the Dr said that he was very surprised at how well his knee looked and that he thought for sure that Lane would be in a brace and on crutches for a few months. But then he said something that Brent, Myself & Lane were all so happy to hear... I thank that you are all better Lane. You can go back to doing whatever you want...Lane still has to wear a new brace all the time but he can go back to playing baseball he was so happy to hear the Dr say that that he started crying a little. So today will be his first practice since he hurt his knee and he can hardly wait...

Leonardo do Vinci's

Doesn't have nothing on my kids...He may have painted the Mona Lisa but could he have painted something as pretty as this.....



I didn't think so...

This is what I walked in to the other night while the kids were playing in the tub..Good thing that the markers they were using were washable...They love to use those Crayola markers for the bath tub...just a little water and it wipes off!!!

Easter came early

We had decide last year to get the kids a few ducks for Easter but when we went to get them they were all SOLD OUT!!! So this year we went early to get them and we were going to keep them a secret until Easter but its kinda hard to hid them so we went on and gave them to the kids. Our plan is to let the kids raise them and when they get old enough to put them on the pond at our house. The kids are loving them they want to hold them all the time. We have tried to explain that the ducks are not like cats and dogs that you can't hold them all the time that it would kill them.. Sara Beth is so sweet with them she will just talk to them and watch them for hours...Brent and the kids are already talking about getting more after these get bigger..ummm I'm not so sure about that because when we got them I didn't know that I was going to have to be the "MOTHER DUCK" I have to clean out the cage(every day) make sure they have water and food...like I don't have enough to do around the house!!!

Lanes new boo boo

Sunday while at a friends house jumping on the trampoline Lane feel off and hurt his knee. We thought that he may have just wisted it and that he would be fine in a few days. All night Sunday he cried and would not put any of his weight on it so we thought that we should take him to the Dr (just to make sure) that everything was OK. After about 6 different x-rays and 3 different test the Dr came in and told us that Lane had hyperextensed his knee and that bc of that he now has a torn tendon in his knee. So my sweet baby is now in a brace that goes all the way down his leg and he has to use crutches. We have to go back to the orthopedic Dr in two week to see if that is working or to see if we may have to do surgery...I think the worst thing about it (to Lane) is that the Dr told him that he may not be playing baseball this year. My poor baby just started crying after the Dr told him that..We ask Lane what he wanted to do about ball practice today and he told me and Brent that he wanted to go and watch the team practice that just bc he couldnt practice didn't mean that he couldn't go and cheer for his team during practice today. I am so proud of him for saying that I just hope that when we get there its not to hard on him to just watch and not be able to play (he LOVES baseball). So please say a prayer for Lane that his knee will get better and that when we go back to the Dr that everything is working right and that he will be able to get back to doing what he loves...

First Practice of 2009

Baseball has started back up...That means bye bye afternoons of not having anything to do but watch TV and go to bed. Sara Beth has practice on Monday & Fridays and Lane has practice on Tuesday & Thursday...Sara Beth told me last night after her practice was over that since this was her 3rd year on the team that she was going to be the "bestest" one out there..Here are a few pictures of Sara Beth's practice from yesterday!!!
