We're hanging in there!

This is just a little sneak peak of what's to come. I still can't find the usb cord for my camera (have any of you seen it?) so I'll have to take my camera in and have the pictures downloaded to cds.

It's been a rough few days here at the Watson house. My family lost 2 loved ones on Sunday and we're all trying to make sense of everything. My heart breaks because I'm so far away and can't be there to help them. I know that your prayers will be greatly appreciated as they seek peace and understanding.

Carey is beginning nights on the trauma service (eek!) and is a little nervous about adjusting to this exhausting and fast-paced rotation. I'll do my best to keep up with trauma updates.

I am babysitting 3 days a week and having an extra 18 month old is keeping me on my toes. I'm actually able to get more done as AGW and HLW are preoccupied with their new playmate. But I earn my money with that extra mouth to feed and diapers to change. So far we all 3 really enjoy our new little companion and would love to keep her around for a while.

Fall has brought back my interest in rearranging and repurposing. I'm in the process of building cornice boards for the windows, changing an old radio cabinet into a pantry, and hope to begin a dollhouse from Santa very soon. I'm also excited to get back to a consistent running program tomorrow. Tis the season, after all.

AGW sat through a sermon with her Daddy a few weeks ago and heard lots about marriage and relationships. Since then she has been dressing me up to get married to her, deciding whether to marry Daddy or Hayes, and explaining to me about the baby growing in her tummy. I'm thinking this may also have something to do with her Uncles Monte and Cody getting married and Aunt Crystal having a growing tummy. ;)

Hayes Lane is getting FOUR teeth on top! They finally broke through and explain the 4 a.m. cuddle sessions lately. Poor guy. I caught him yesterday attempting to "jump" and you can imagine how that ended. He waddles everywhere he goes these days but still has to pull up to standing. I'm sure he'll figure out how to stand from sitting in a day or two and my little baby will no longer need his Momma to help him at all. How did this year pass so quickly? Where did my little ones go?
