A Special Day

We had Sadie's Baby Blessing on the 8th of February. I was so happy to have most of the family here (we missed you Glen, Leah and Austyn). It was such a wonderful day. I also had so many of my great friends come. The blessing was beautiful and so are all my friends and family. Afterwards, we went to the house and had some yummy food. It had a sad ending though, I had to say good-bye to everyone all at once. I was spoiled for way to long with my mom here, I knew it had to come to an end. We'll see how our quality of life fairs with my dear mom gone. Thanks again everyone, I love you!!!

Sadie's First Photo Shoot

My friend from church wanted to take some pictures of Sadie at her studio for me. She is building her portfolio and offered to do it for free. The pictures turned out so great, and we had a lot of fun too. Sadie was so good and we got a few smiles. What can I say? She's a doll!

Miss Sadie Lynne

Well, she finally arrived, Miss Sadie Lynne Current! She is such a delight and a wonderful baby girl. She weighed 7lbs 4oz and was 19 3/4" long and was born at 8:06a.m. on January 13th. Everyone was impressed, because she scored a 10 on the apgar test which meant she was the picture of health for a new baby. The c-section went well and I am home recovering with help from my sweet mom (who is the best). She is planning on staying until the baby blessing which is scheduled for the 8th of February. I told her that she slowly needs to let me do more things so I don't go into panic mode when she does have to leave. The kids are adjusting well to the new addition. They love her so much, Cade calls her "MY baby". Mady is just waiting for the day for her to be able to share a room with her. And of course, it wouldn't be my girl without a big flashy bow!

Thanks for the Shower!

Thanks to my darling friends, I had a surprise baby shower. They had told me that they wanted to throw a shower for our friend Amanda (who is expecting her first girl after three boys), and that they would plan and prepare everything, they just wanted to have it at my house. I was only worried that I would go into labor before then, since the shower was planned 5 days before my scheduled c-section. They had told Amanda that the shower was for me, so they got us both. I had so much fun and Sadie got so many fun things. Thanks a bunch everyone, you all are the best!!

Christmas at the Currents

We had a wonderful Christmas Eve and Christmas this year. We spent Christmas Eve over at Gene and Sue's house. The kids had a blast sledding and playing with their cousins. We came home with more gifts than we knew what to do with (Surprise Surprise)!!! Anyways, Mady woke up especially early to see if Santa had stopped by. She was very patient and waited until her brother woke up so we wouldn't have a "bad day"! The kids loved opening presents and eating lots of candy!

Pictures with Santa

We braved the mall and the weather today to go visit Santa. Mady was able to give him her letter that she wrote for him at school. Cade asked for candy and a dirt bike and Mady asked for a house that talks and answers questions. We might be taking up a fund for these extravagant gifts!!!!! But, I'm sure they will be happy with whatever Santa brings them.

Mady's Christmas Program

Mady had her first Christmas Program. It was so much fun to go see her perform. They sang about 10 Christmas Songs. My normal video camera wasn't charged so I had to use my small camera, so the picture or recording aren't that great. She did so good and loved seeing all of her family there to support her. Cade loved it too, he was trying to imitate everything that his sister did. Afterwards, we got to have frito pie with her class. And for all those who are wanting a belly picture, Brice had me and Cade pose with our bellies. His is much cuter though. Only 25 more days to go! Yippee!!
