First of 2013

We (as always) have been busy! We ended 2012 at a low point but are fighting back and hopefully going to make 2013 amazing! We are setting goals and we're hitting them hard...starting next month.

I couldn't get in the mood to set goals at the start of the new year. Why, you ask...I know it's a new year to start fresh, I was coming off a miscarriage.  We were 10 weeks and we lost what was supposed to be baby B #2 in July, to make it worse it was 2 days before Christmas and we were going to make the big announcement as we had just gone to the doctor and everything looked good.

It has taken me this long to be able to write about it. Close friends know but only some details. Some people say well you have Kypton! You're all right, no doubt, but that still doesn't change the loss of a baby.  You flash forward to their name, their room decor, how Kypton will be a great big brother...and in a day it's all gone! It sucks, but it put in perspective this Christmas what really mattered. My family and their happiness. I just think that Dan's Mom now has two of our babies rocking with her, someday we will get to meet them :)

I'm not sure that hole will ever be filled, but we have hope, and faith that it was all Gods plan and we continue to move forward as a family. We are enjoying Kypton's milestones. Still getting the 1st time parent thing under our belt as everyday Kypton teaches us something new. He is talking so much more, learning to really play with friends (now that he's big enough for play dates!) he is so sweet, blowing kisses, giving hugs, getting the hang of FaceTime with grandma and papa. We did have our first visit to the ER on Monday.  Put him to bed about 8 and 10:30 he woke up with a fever and wheezing.  I was just praying over and over that if he needed to go to the hospital for God to give me a sign...well Dan got up to get him some medicine, came back and BOOM our bed broke (now 1:30) I said, "well, we have nowhere to sleep we should just take him." Off we went to get a breathing treatment and a steroid. We have been super lucky that this is the only time other than a small cold at 4 months that he as been sick. Praise God! He is feeling much better and is back to being the amazing little man he is!

As far as our last blog, we are back in our house, the floors are done and the new decor (most of it) is in place.  Here, are some photos for the start of 2013...enjoy!
