Up Date On The Family

I am so sorry that we have not kept the blog up to date. It has been almost a year since the last update. Our fmaily has gone through a lot, we added another member to our family.
Carson got a job at the hospital as a CNA back in November, he worked 3 days a week 12 hours days. which was a blessing while I was in the hospital becaues he could come and see me or the baby. Carson is goingto school full time right now to the Radiology Tech program in Pueblo an hour away from home. It is a 2 year program. He is a great dad to the girls, we love you.
I got really sick while I was pregnant, I had 3 blood clots in my brain , put on bed rest, then in the hospital from Dec 7 - Jan 8. I had to give myself shots in the stomah 2x's a day. I am now back to normal and my blood clots are gone.
Amanda has grown up so much in the last year. She loves being outside, playing with friends , dress up , cooking swimming , dolls, books crafts, and loves being a big sister. She is a good helper too.
Megan was born Jan 5, 2011 at 27 weeks weighing 2lbs 2ozs. She was in the NICU for 94 days , I was there evry day!!! She came home in April on oxygen. She has gained weight and is up to 12 lbs or so. She love to smile and laugh, she just got off the oxygen. We are so happy to have her in our Family!

Funny story about Amanda

We where out on my Parents deck trying to see the air planes fly overs the Air Force football game, but Amanda doesn't like being on deck becaues she can see through the floor, which scares her. So she turns to me and says "Mommy I need to go inside! Then I said" No , we need to see the plans." The she said "I have a promble and I prayed about it , and I need to go inside! Hahaha She is not even 3 yet! To funny!!!!
