So much to catch up on

Well, welcome back to the blog!

I am sorry I have not written in this blog in a long time because lets be honest life gets away from us and it does it really fast. Since my last post I have been pregnant and had our most recent baby be born. She is so pretty and full of life. Harley was born July 7, 2016 at 12:47am she came quick and painfully well more painful then Remy was. She is a great addition to our family and we just love her so much. Remy has really stepped it up as a big brother and helps in every way he can. He is our trash man and throws away all of the trash that we need thrown away, he helps Harley with her needs such as putting her pacifier in her mouth when she is sad, gives her hugs when she needs them, and sometimes pulls on her hand/arm when she really doesn't want to be touched. I really couldn't ask for a better big brother for Harley then Remy. I can already tell that they will be one powerful team and also one crazy couple of kids.

Harley was born like I said July 7th,2016, 2 days after her due date. She was due July 5th and decided to become breach in my belly and then I went back to the doctor the next day to check and see what our options were because it was so late in the game. We talked about a C-section which I would have done if it was the best option for the baby but I got lucky and the doctor checked Harley again and she flipped right back around. So the doctor set me up for labor and delivery that day. Dan and I went back home and took a nap ( my mom was in town and was prepared to take care of Remy which was such a blessing) then we woke up around 3 and headed to the hospital as told. We got to the hospital checked in and waited for about another hour to two hours for a room. Then we got all of our check in information (medical history etc) which took another hour and a half! The night just went on and on and then finally they got the ball rolling around 8pm. My contractions started and I had no idea they were happening until around 10pm and I then really started feeling them hard. I asked for the epidural which I had to wait for due to the hospital being busy with other women. The doctor got there they gave me the epidural and I told them my water broke they did not believe me until they turned me back onto the table and within 10 min Harley was born 7Lbs 5oz! She was beautiful!!! She came with hard labor, quick, and was ready to welcome the world. The doctor wasnt even in the room yet nor was the bed fully broken down when she was born thats how fast she was ready to meet us.

Remy showed up with my mom the next day and was so happy and sweet to her for about 10 minutes then he didn't care but what 2 year old is ready to meet a baby? But like I have stated before they are really becoming quite the duo. Remy is now 2 years old and just recently potty trained and he is doing better and better on holding his potty each day. He really surprises me everyday on how much he is learning and talking. He learns new words I swear on a daily basis. Remy also is in love with his Mama (grandma) he always wants to know what she is doing and where she is from sun up to sun down. Another thing that is really surprising to me but not at the same time is how much he wants to really be a big boy and do everything himself for ex:opening the door to come in from outside or from inside to outside. Remy still needs a daily nap but refuses half the time so he spends an hour alone so that he can decompress for the rest of the day which never really seems to bother him until about 6pm when the tantrums get worse and worse like if you tell him to put his undies back on from using the potty he will scream at your face and run around the house naked! so cover your eyes

Dan and I have relocated back to NC while he finds a job, we really miss St Louis I think I do more then he does most days but we are happy to be back in the good ole south. We really missed the southern food and southern hospitality. But if there is one thing i miss the most about St louis is all the friends we have made and all the memories that we left behind. We left behind the place where Remy took his first steps, said his first words, and made his first friends. It is sad to see him every Sunday not having his play pals Benny and George ( we sure do miss them). But we do what the lord tells us and has in store for us and as we are faithful and have faith Dan will find a job and he did!!!! He had been looking for over a year and found one an hour and a half away from were I am from which is a blessing in itself so that we do not have to move so far across the US to a new location. We have already found a place to live and are ready for our next adventure to begin. I really have enjoyed having Dan home to help with Remy and Harley, and I know he is excited to go back to work but I know it will be rough on Remy especially but it was worth the wait for Dan to find the perfect job!!!


Well hopefully I will update it again soon!!!
