New Baby!

I'm Sooooooo excited! My friend had her baby! Kelly lived with us for a short while when she met my husbands cousin Lark. I kept warning her "stay away from that boy, he is trouble." But he fell head over heels for her and well we all know how that goes. They got married like 3 or 4 months later, and then like a month after they were married they got pregnant. Well here we are 9 months later, with a beautiful baby girl. Lark was so incredible during the whole process. He wanted to do everything for Kelly, so attentive to her every need. She went in on Sunday at 3:30. She made progress real fast and then started to slow down, so they gave her some medicine to help her sleep and they waited to turn up her induction medicine until the morning. Everyone was there, in and out of the room checking on Kelly and anticipating the moment baby Alyssa would be here. Finally, Kelly is at the last moments. I am sitting in the waiting room while everyone is finishing their goodbyes and good lucks when Lark comes down and says "Katie come here." I went out into the hall and he says "I cant do this by myself, will you please go in with me?" I told him if he was for sure that's what he wanted to do then I would; he replied again, "I'm gonna need help I just don't think I can do it," but let me tell you HE DONE AWESOME! I wanted to cry my eyes out. I stood behind Lark the whole time and prayed through every push. Let me tell you they will make very good parents. Congratulation Lark and Kelly! Michael the Girls and I Love You Very Much!

sickness and sorrow

Well I'm glad yesterday is over! I was sooooo sick. Thank God for good friends. I was throwing up, Body aches, chills, tonsils are swollen, and my head felt like it could explode at any time. I haven't been that sick in 3 yrs. Anna was sick a couple of days ago, and now I think Hali is staring to get it.
Well besides all that Michael and I were going to go to Kentucky this weekend for my birthday. In Kentucky this weekend they have what they call "Ham Fest" its really fun, kinda like a fair but they have a parade an all kinds of neat things I haven't been since I was 15 yrs old I will be 26 this weekend. My mom's family lives there, an I was looking forward to seeing them, but Micheal and I have things we HAVE to get done on our house for winter, so well we had to make a decision that I personally didn't want to make but it had to be done. My cousin Faith Ann cried when I told her we weren't coming which in turn made me cry. It's nice to know my family cares soo deeply for me and I for them. Well Faith Ann if you read this I luv you and I will try an come sometime soon. For now to my Uncle's, Aunts,Cousin's, and Mama I love you all and hate I can't be there. Take Care. Love Katie Jo
