Happy 7th Birthday Reecey Cup!!

I can't believe my little guy is 7 already!! Time goes by so quickly. It makes me sad to think that Reece is growing up so quick. It seems like just yesterday he was a little chubby bald baby!!





For his birthday, we celebrated with both sides of the family...it was really nice. My husbands whole family came in from New Jersey! I finally got to meet my niece Olivia for the first time!! She is soooooo adorable!! So smart for a 2 year old!!





Today Reece and I just hung out at home....it was nice. I filled his room up with helium balloons while he was at school...and decorate the house with streamers and signs. He was so excited!! I just love birthdays!!

It's about time!!

Ugh!! It has been so hard to blog lately! I feel so out of the loop!! Lots of things have happened in the past few weeks!!

-Congratulations to my good friend Dawn on the birth of her beautiful baby girl Lacey!!!

-Also, Bowl for Mason was an amazing event. I can't even believe how wonderful it all was. My family and friends are truly amazing!!

-Primetime Television starts new episodes next week!! I am so excited I need my Greys Anatomy and Desperate Housewives!!

First Grade!

First Grade Already!! It seems like just yesterday my baby was learning to walk. As I was making his lunch this morning he rushed into the kitchen:

Reece: What are you doing?

Me: Making your lunch

Reece: You didn't cut my sandwich in 1/2 did you?

Me: No, why?

Reece: Because first graders eat WHOLE sanwiches!

When did he grow up so fast!! Oh yeah, and he made it a point to give me a kiss goodbye before the bus turned the corner!

Feeling Very Thankful

So, tonight I am feeling very thankful. I just read our church prayer chain and there was a prayer request that I can't stop thinking about. Right now down at Riley's: a 15 year old boy is on a ventilator with a life threatening infection after a routine appendectomy. His chances for survival are very slim. I can't imagine how his parents are feeling, coping, or even functioning.
When Mason was born, we were devastated and scared. My first initial thought was...why me? The past month or so now my feeling has turned into.....thank god it's me! What an amazing boy I have. (Actually 1 of 2 amazing boys) Each day he surprises me! He has such a personality at just 8 weeks old! He may not be what people think of as "normal" but he is such a blessing and I am so grateful to how he has opened my eyes up to a whole new world. Hopefully, I will be able to share that world with people I meet throughout my life.

I am also extremely grateful for my "Sunny Supporters." You know who you are!!!
