Karsyn the giggler

This was a long time ago, sometime when I was pregnant with Addy. I watched it earlier and it kind of made my day, so enjoy the giggles.

Heaven

A Happy Family is But an Earlier Heaven

I am so gosh darn lucky to have three beautiful and happy children and one hard working man who loves us dearly. They are my Heaven!! These 4 brighten my day everyday, even at the hardest times. Having three children so close together is not easy. I have cried many times in the last few months and it will probably continue for a little while....who am I kidding..ok the rest of my life, I am a Woman. I am starting to get the hang of 3...slowly...but it's coming along.

The other day some stranger out of the blue complimented me on doing a good job at handling 3 kids, It made my day because lately I get a lot of stares or the obvious"you really have your hands full" I do not go to many places with all three, can you imagine the chaos, one running here the other running there, the wee little one crying for food, who do you go after, when can you feed her. My life is a little chaotic, but I love it and I am thankful for it, and I wouldn't trade it.

Regarding the appt.

Addy's appointment went well, although the pressure gradiant number stayed the same. Didn't go up and didn't go down.

Until next month!

Appointment

Going to the Dr. in the morning.

Hope to get some good news {again}!

OK a few people have inspired me to start blogging again. I have missed it and I have wanted to do it many times but then I start to think of all the things that have happened in the last few months that I wanted to post and I get overwhelmed. So I will just add picture updates here and there. The most important thing that has happened in our lives is our new addition...baby girl Shumway...... A.K.A. Adelynn Nicole Shumway or {Miss Addy Girl}

{Did I mention this was my hardest delivery}
I look lovely! ha
Why do women choose no drugs?????
I thought I was dying!


Isn' this a sweet picture.
She has been a sweet little girl since she has arrived.

Most everyone knows or has heard of her ♥Heart♥ condition
Pulminary Stenosis
A nurse discovered this when we were still in the hospital by doing the regular routine checks. The pediatrician checked her out and the follow up's began with a cardiologist. We have been seeing a Cardiologist, Dr. G., every few weeks now. I really like her Dr. he has a way of making me feel calm about this whole thing. As we have been doing these check ups the problem started getting worse and the last time we went in I was expecting him to tell me that we would be scheduling a catheder procedure for her.
With quite a bit of prayers and fasting from family and good friends her pulminary valve has started opening up on it's own..the pressure gradiant number went down..we were so thrilled to hear this, I completely believe in prayers and miracles, and I know that there is still a chance of surgery for her, but until then I know she is and will be blessed.

We seriously can't get enough of her. The kids adore her and try taking care of her as much as I let them. Seth is so sweet with her, he wants to protect her and it's the cutest thing to see when he just lays his cheek on her forhead and Karsyn is sort of a mommy figure to her, always wanting to take care of her and teach her things that Addy does not understand. Karsyn wants her to be big now. I can't wait for a couple of years to go by to see how these three interact with each other. By then we may have a fourth in the mix...haha!
Our plan is to wait 2 or 3 or maybe 4 years before anything else grows in this here belly.
My body needs a break and my patience needs to grow.
