Been a long long time !!

Tuesday, July 6, 2010

Well, HELLO strangers!! It has been a long time since I have blogged. So much has went on !! I first stopped blogging because my heart hurt so bad when my dog Minnie was put to sleep. I just felt like life had ended for me. Then my sister in April of last yr. told us she was expecting!! Her only child at the time was 10 yrs old so I really was excited for them. Then in May she developed a blood clot in her thigh. Amber was in the hospital for a few days. The blood Dr. found out she had factor 5 and needed shots to keep her blood thin. I feel that dealing with all this made her a very moody person and she took alot of this out on me. I spent a few months without her and I was really hurt. I felt like I couldn't get along without her. But I did. On December 4 2010 the best gift I could ever received entered into our world!! Maximus Clayton-James Webb was born. The first time I held him all I could do was Thank God for this perfect gift!! The hurt that I felt was gone. MY perfect Max was here.
He has been a total dream come true. Everytime he sees me is like he is seeing me for the first time. He grins the biggest grin and knows who I am ! He makes life so worth while.
Then on December 17 2010 my GREAT niece Myra-Lynn Agnes was born. She was so tiny but so beautiful! I was so proud that my niece was giving her part of my name. Michelle asked me when she knew it was a girl if she could give her the middle name Agnes. I was so proud that she loved me that much that she wanted to give her daughter part of my name. So of course I said YES!!
Both of the babies are growing like weeds !! Hard to believe that they are 7 months old this month. Max is now sitting up and crawling. He has one tooth. He is such a joy!!
Myra has 4 teeth and rolling over. She is not interested in sitting up or crawling . But when she is ready WATCH OUT!!
My husband Robert was laid off for almost 2 yrs. He is FINALLY back to work! He has been at this job for almost 6 months. I am so proud of him. He tries so hard to provide for us. So I think we are starting to climb out of our hole and getting back to where we should be.
The rest of my family is here and doing ok. Hopefully I will keep up with my blog !! I have had a few medical problems but I will add that in at a later time. I am more hoping to get back into doing the daybook as I had enjoyed it so. Well, I think I will close this for now and post a picture of one of my beautiful flowers that I have so enjoyed!!
