**I have added something I forgot in the original post. Go down to May!**
It has been 2 months since I posted last. Sorry for the absence, but life has been pretty crazy. I'll try and remember the big things that have happened! :)
In March:
1) I took the girls on a trip to see all of my sisters. It was a blast! We went to LJ's first and had a great visit. Then we went to DL's and Jayden got sick. :( We ended up staying in most of the time, but it was a good visit. Next we went to Mom's and visited with JB. We went to the Dallas Zoo and met my cousin Jill and her son Nicholas there. It was really good to see them! Finally we went to KA's. That was a lot of fun. I miss getting to see my sisters all the time. I decided that I was going to make an effort to go visit each of my sisters each year. I also decided to go see Mom and Dad more often. I just get so caught up in my family's schedule that I don't think about the fact that I can go see them during the week. I don't have to wait for a weekend that Travis can go.
2) Travis and I had our 3 year anniversary! It is hard to believe that we have only been married for 3 years and have 2 girls. I am so glad I married my best friend! We are so happy and can't wait to see what God has in store for us.
3) We had our family pictures taken! Our friend Tong has really gotten into photography and we were so willing to let him use our family to get started! :)
In April:
1) We went to Little Rock to visit Travis' brother Mark and his family for Easter. It was so much fun! We colored Easter eggs and had a hunt in the back yard. It was great! We also went hiking. Jayden had a blast!! She did awesome and wanted to climb the mountain all by herself. :)
2) Jayden has learned Ephesians 6:1! She has actually gotten to the point where she can say it all by herself since we took this video.
In May:
1) I took the girls up to see Mom again. It was a great visit! We went up to see her parents in Wayne, OK. It was so good to see them!! Kenley decided she wanted a taste of Oma's coffee! :) She kept pulling Mom's cup toward her and chewing on the edge of the cup. She is getting so big.
2) Mark and Jenny came in for a weekend in May also. Jayden had a blast spending the night over at Mimi and Pop's with her cousins Tristan and Pierce. She often wakes up in the morning or from her naps (sometimes both) asking for them! I keep telling them that they need to move in next door. Literally...the house next door is for sale! :)
Now that we are in June, a couple of things are going on! First, we have camp next week! Yay! We are getting so excited. :)
Also, Travis and I have started a workout routine. We have doing it for a week and so far...it is going great! I lost 3 lbs last week! Woohoo! I am really trying to get these last 30 pounds off. I want to do everything I can to get off of insulin! My numbers have been so high and I'm nursing, so I can't take the oral medication (not that I want to take it anyway...I have not heard one good thing about any of the oral medications for diabetes). So, my goal is to get everything under control and not have to take anything! We will see...
As a final note...please pray for Kingwood Church of Christ. We have had a lot of blows lately. Satan is really at work and while we are able to show what this church is made of...it is very trying. I am so proud of our church and the way that everyone has handled the last couple of weeks. Life has been delivering blow after blow, but I am looking up!
God is my refuge and my strength! I can do anything through Him!
