Favorite Foto Friday - Jan Photos!

Above is my friend Amanda.... who is due with Baby Cole next Wednesday! This is one of my favorite pic's, because I know by this time next week..... Baby Cole's pictures will be one here! We are anxiously awaiting your arrival baby Cole!



  • Thanks to my friend (click on sidebar Me Me and Monkeys Adventures) for using the "Favorite January Fotos" theme for this week. I must admit, I didn't get a lot of great photos this month and I rarely use professional ones that I do of others..... so these are some favorite family ones. I was REALLY hoping for a big snow or ice for the month of January (as it was this time last year we had an ice storm and I got awesome pic's ...of both family and nature). We are supposed to get about 3" tonight, so I am still hoping to get SOME snow photos of the girls for Valentines Cards..... January has seemed to fly by with all the activities Madisyn has been in..... and it seems that my medical tests are finally winding down. I got a good reading at my tilt test table yesterday....I did get to pass out, my heart rate dropped to just below 40 BPM, and I was sweating like a madwoman, crying and had I not been strapped to a table, I would have fallen over. That is a horrible feeling to feel as if your heart is going to stop! Ugg....anyway, I was there for three hours and they found I do have a condition with my heart (don't remember the exact name). They talked about putting in a pacemaker and I said no way....too young....not doing it. So they will put me on a beta blocker, forever I guess. That should regulate my heart rate, keep it from dropping and me passing out consistently. I also go in next Thurs for a sleep study test...the dr. has said my airway passages are small and chance that I have sleep apnea and stop breathing for periods at a time since I already have an irregular heartbeat and palpitations. Anyway.....after this round of tests and hopefully fixes, I am done with Dr.'s for awhile! A long while. I am actually feeling really well.....I went off most ALL medications dr.'s felt the need to put me on, cleared my system (which was NOT easy) and seem to have gotten some energy and zest for life back. For that I am sooo very thankful!



  • We have a fun weekend planned with our kiddos..... Madisyn has NO activities tonight. Did you read that .... NONE! This is rare....so we are going to build a cozy fire, sleep on the air mattress and pretend we are camping while watching a few movies I rented and I may kick her butt in Wii bowling and uno a few times :-) It is supposed to snow...so how fun and soothing will that be? Tomorrow she has her first indoor soccer game..... and we may head to Monkey Mountain to join up with Juliana, Amaya and Becky to play for the remainder of the afternoon. Sunday we plan on church, then a movie.....





Enjoy your weekend and I hope it is blessed beyond belief....

I am glad your tests are over for the most part. I hope once they get you on the beta blocker you start to feel a difference.
