Pictures outside

Here are some new pictures I took yesterday. It was freezing, so I had a hard time getting Josiah to be happy.

Some cute pictures

I found some cute pictures on Jessica's computer, they are from a few months ago.

7 Months, on Nov. 13th

Here is a picture Isaac took of me the other day, he took it with my phone so it's not too clear . You can see the scarf I am knitting for John. I was 7 months.

All dressed up to see Daddy

Today we went to see Daddy at his work. This Lifetime Fitness is twice the size as the other ones he has done & it's in Lakeville.

The kido's

The other day I went in to wake up the kids & it was so cute how Hannah & Chloe were sleeping together. The other pictures are of Isaac & Hannah getting the mail the other day in the rain. They have to bring there wagon to stand on, in order to reach the mail box.

Here are a few more pictures from the trip.

New Update

Hello everyone, I’m sorry it's taken me so long to give you an update . There's been a lot going on the last few weeks.
First off, John’s Aunt Rita died, after a year of fighting cancer, we had her funeral on Thursday Sep. 7th. Peter & Dorcas came back for the funeral & spent a week with us, we were able to do a lot of visiting. Sunday the 3rd we went to Jim & Annette’s house & ended up staying till 3:00 a.m.,(because the guys had started a game of Risk) we had alot of fun!! Then 2 weeks later on Sep. 17th Jim & Annette had the baby, William Grant, he is just adorable. On friday the 22nd I came down with a kidney infection (which was extremely painful). We had Rodney’s wedding to go to the next weekend, so I was a very discouraged I knew if I didn't get better I couldn't go anywhere. I started taking antibiotics on Sat. Sep 23rd, John took care of me that weekend. My mom came over during the week & took care of me & also the kids. On tuesday John’s mom took Isaac & Hannah home with her for two days. I was feeling much better by wednesday. On tuesday I went to the midwife & she said she didn’t want me driving that far, but that I was free to fly.
So my wonderful father offered to take us all down with his buddy passes (the last ones he had for the year). I flew down on thursday with mom, dad, Isaac & Hannah. Dad had to fly back to bring John & Jessica, because he has to be with us when we travel on his buddy passes. We were all there for the rehearsal, Isaac & Hannah were just adorable, they were the ring bearer & flower girl. It was so nice to see everyone, and we had a wonderful time. The wedding was so elegant and just flowed beautifully. It's so awesome to see Rodney and Melanie so happy and blessed. The people in Ohio are so happy to have him there and he loves the church and Bro. and Sis. Moore.
Everyone please keep me in your prayers, because I am still recovering, also keep Dorcas in your prayers, she has been having trouble with her kidneys, also. We are now back at home safe & sound. Thank you everyone for your prayers, they have helped me more then you’ll ever know.

Here are a few more pictures of the kids.

It's a girl !!

This is from last week, I was 21 weeks. We found out it is a girl (her name will be Grace we are still not sure of the middle name). The kids were so excited to see her moving around on the ultrasound, Isaac said "Ohhh she is so tiny". We are back from Kansas City, we had a lot of fun. My Aunt Donise & Deborah came to see us & to spoil the kids. They drove with us to Branson & we got to see my Grandma Patton & Aunt Stephanie with her family. We went to some shows & of course Silver dollar City (John loved it) he hadn't been to Branson yet. It was a lot of fun, but it was still a little hot although Aunt Donise thought it was wonderful (in Texas it's still in the 100's). I wasn't able to take pictures because we lost our charger for the camera, but I will get some from Jessica & put them up soon.

The 4th of July

Here are some pictures from the 4th. We were at the Inlows house (Annette's Mom & Dad). The little girl with Hannah is Anna Jim & Annette's oldest.

Update

Well I found a wonderful Midwife in Hudson & she delivers at Woodwinds, too. We found out that my due date is January 13th. I will be having it at Hudson because it's only 15 minutes away & it's also where Annette had Anna & Joseph, she will also be having the new baby there too (its a boy). She is due September 20th & Dorcas is due January 24th. Dorcas & I will probably be having them around the same time, because Esther & Ezekial came 4 weeks early. We will have a busy full house at the Stauffer get-togethers with 20, and three will be new babies. Mom and Dad are staying busy working alot, helping Jessica get through school. Jessica's burning the candle at both ends!!!! She's working in the ER at HCMC, also at the Mn brain injury institute, taking summer calc class along with statistics so needless to say we rarely see her. We're so excited for her so much is happening and falling into place so well. The Lord has been so good to all of us and we feel extremely blessed and so thankful for God's leading in our lives.

Memorial Day

Monday, Memorial Day, we went to Valley Fair & got our season passes. The kids had a blast!
