Didn't you just love the pictures of Henry? He is so cute and smells so good!

I miss him. I crave him. How can that be? He isn't one of mine. My friend Jill said it would be like this though. She said I would love him as much as I love my own and she was right. I do. I must make a trip to Jonesboro soon and very soon.

It was so weird being at the hospital all day Wednesday. In the same hospital where my three sons were born. I tried to get Abby to change rooms so that Henry could be in the same room as Samuel, but she would not do it. Such a party pooper.

Anyway, it was weird being there. Me being the one that had to wait (and wait, and wait). I didn't make anyone wait that long! HA! I even said I would rather be the one having the baby than the one sitting in the waiting room. I think I may need medication or something. Because that just doesn't sound like something a sane person would say!

Today Abby and Randall took Henry to the doctor. Henry is a little jaundiced so he is wearing a little lamp-like thing for the next 24 hours to get that under control. They say he doesn't seem to mind it a bit. As with anything, his parents mind it more than him.

Abby is tired, but resting. She is enjoying being a mother so much during the day, but not so much at night! Hopefully they will have a better night tonight. You know how those hospitals do. They keep the baby there until he wakes up and then they send him home. It just isn't fair!! HA!HA!

Keep them in your prayers!!!!

I am so glad they are home! My 2nd son had to have the light thing as well. He liked it because it kept him nice and warm. There was only one problem...when the light came off and his color was under control his sleep habits were all messed up. I will say an extra prayer that all goes well for them.

Praying for all of you! Those days go by so fast, I sure miss the way my babies smelled. Enjoy every minute, as I know you already are, girl!

All Aboard The Birthday Polar Express

  Can you believe Henry Patton will be 4 years old tomorrow?! Neither can we. We celebrated his birthday last weekend with his first all boy party, polar express style. I had so much fun preparing for it, as you can probably tell! My mother who is never at a loss for words said it looked like Polar Express threw up in my house. She was SO right and we loved it! We had a breakfast pajama party with 7 three and four year old boys. It was such a fun time.   I had his pajamas monogrammed with a train and his name. He loved them and I liked how they sort of looked like the ones on the movie. Henry loved all the bells I had everywhere. There is no doubt we believe at this house. We had the jingle loud and proud!   I had his invitation made from a shop on Etsy and I was very pleased with them. One of his little friends came to the door ready for me to punch his ticket. It was so cute. I ran to get a hole punch and punched it for him. Every good p...

Meet Shaun

This is my single co-worker and church friend, Shaun. He and I have so much fun bantering back and forth. He takes what I dish out and scoops it right back up and hands it back to me. He is a keeper for that and many other reasons, which I will share on this post. He was kind enough to allow me to highlight him on Kelly’s Korner http://www.kellyskornerblog.com/ for her singles link up. His last words to me about this were, “ This better not be an embarrassment! ” I trust I will do my best to make it not be, but I make no promises! The first thing you need to know about Shaun is that he loves Jesus and the Boston Red Sox . He asked Jesus into his heart at age 8 and is still seeking and serving him today at age 26. Shaun graduated from Arkansas State University with a degree in digital media and design. When he is not busy creating masterpieces for our customers he is hiking, watching the Red Sox , playing basketball, horsing around at the lake or beach, and watching movies. He is fu...
