I'll Be Back!

I will post to this blog again...
In the meantime I am getting ready for a VERY special little boy's first birthday!

Firetrucks in the house

I have good reason for my blogging absence. We have had sickness hit our house. I believe everyone is finally well now. We also had a little episode where our power went out during a storm we had here. When the power came back on our alarm went off for a second. It was about 12 at night. It woke up Henderson and scared him TO DEATH. I went into his room and he kept telling me he wanted to firetrucks to leave the house. He didn't want firetrucks in the house (I guess the alarm sounded just like a firetruck siren). He was terrified to sleep by himself and ended up having to sleep with us that night. We have had problems every night since then (and I think that was about 3 weeks ago). He wakes up every night at different times. One of us has to get him back into his bed. He will show up in our room... It is miserable. I have tried several different things, but nothing is working. I guess it will get better, but I could certainly use some prayers.

David is everywhere now. He is truly into everything. He will be 11 months old in a few days and I just can't stand it. I don't want him to get any older!

Here are a few pics from our trip to West Point to celebrate my mom's birthday...
