Thank you all for caring enough about our lives to read our blog and lift us up in your prayers. Noelle is still throwing up today, and we are exhausted but she is retaining some fluids, which was our main concern. It feels so comforting to know that our friends and family are here for us and love us through the small stuff, even though it doesn’t seem quite so small now that we’re parents! We love you!
Hi everyone,
Noelle has a terrible stomach bug and has been throwing up since last night. We are trying to keep her hydrated and comfortable. Please pray for our little girl…
Update: The doctors think it is best for her to go to the hospital. We are leaving for Children’s in Dallas as soon as possible. We are okay, Noelle just needs more hydration than we are able to give her. Tomorrow it would be an emergency, today it is a precaution, but please keep Noelle in your prayers. Thank you so much!
So our pastor called my parents and asked them to teach preschool Sunday school at church. Dad immediately said, “No.” When asked if he’d pray about it, he said, “No.” At least he’s honest! But Mom said she would “pray about it” and conducted an exploratory study for herself by visiting the preschool class this Sunday.
She told me that it was time to pass the offering and one little boy didn’t have any money, so he put his Valentine candy in the offering plate. I said, “Oh, Mom, what a blessing to see that. So are you going to teach?” She then said the next minute the boy looked up at her and said, “Ma’am, the boy next to me just pinched me on the nipple.” Haha! She said she is still undecided at this time!
Noelle, Mo, Meresy, Maggie, and Mollie Grace (almost here!)
Noelle and Maggie were great playmates!
Maggie loves the “bebe” and called Noelle “Moelle”
Maggie is going to be the best big sister in the world!
She even shared her new toys from today with “Moelle!”
We had a blast tonight with you guys – thanks for having us!
Chelsea and Noelle are little buddies!
Benito was freaked out to hold a “baby,” but realized it wasn’t so bad when Noelle thought he was really cool!
Noelle was flirting with Shawn’s brother, Dylan, all night! They were so cute playing together!
Noelle LOVES her Ashley!
Ashley’s parents came in from Indiana – it was so great visiting with them – they were a huge part of my life growing up in Jacksonville.
Thanks Bailey and Amanda for hosting our play date!
Kinley, Will, Noelle, Bailey, and Makenna having fun together!
We are seriously going to have to find Noelle some push toys – I have never seen her so excited!
“I can roll with the big boys!”
Little “Mike Pond!”
Noelle explored and played with everything – everywhere she turned there was something bright and colorful – Thank you so much Bailey for sharing all of your great toys with us!
“I want to be a big girl!” We had such a great time hanging out and playing with all of our friends!
