Update on Drew
Drew had her cardiologist appointment today with Dr. Bob in New Orleans. After a long 3 hour wait he finally saw us and said he sees/hears nothing wrong with her and that she i s doing excellent! He did not even do an echo b/c he said he thought she was doing well enough. We go back in 8 months.
Hopefully I can get pictures up on here soon. There are bunches on my camera that I have yet to take off and put on the computer.
This pregnancy is going a lot smoother now that all of the viruses and mornig sickness is gone. I go to see a Maternal Fetal Medicine specialist next tuesday for some complications I have had. He didnt seemed concerned and actually said he wasn't going to see me about that problem anymore. But..... Due to Drew's heart complications he wanted me to continue to see him so he could monitor this baby more closely.
I will keep you posted.

Hello
All is finally well here. We went to Disney World on April 5th and Rylie was running a fever Saturday, the day we left. She stayed sick till Wednesday and Drew got sick that night and stayed sick till the weekend. I got sick Thursday and Steve got sick Friday. It was a respiratory flu that made it's rounds. Not a fun trip AT ALL. :( Then as we are recouping I get call from school saying Rylie was sick the friday after we got back and needed to be picked up. So that went to Drew and I and then me again a week later. Luckily Steve was spared both times.
On to better things....
I am now 17 weeks along today and baby is doing good. I have another appointmet in 2 weeks with an ultrasound. Will post then if we find out for sure the sex of the baby.
Drew is doing great and she has an appointment on thursday in New Orleans with Dr. Bob.
I will update later this week.

Happy Birthday Steve!
It sure has been a while.
Today is Steve's birthday.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY STEVE!!!! I love you!
We are now expecting baby #3 by October 12th!! I am just 10 weeks along so we have a ways to go. When we asked Rylie if she would like a baby sister or baby brother her reply was I already have a sister I dont need another. LOL
Now that she knows I am pregnant she is excited. She keeps asking when and I just keep saying a long time.
Drew is doing awesome despite the cough that she has finally rid herself of that has been here since January. We have an appt. with Dr. Bob for her 6 month checkup sometime next month. I promise to update. :)
Rylie is doing good in school and loves it.
Have a great day!

Prayers needed
This is from my friend Amy. If you could please pray for this little boy that would be greatly appreciated.
Dear Friends and Family:
I do believe in the power of prayer. I am personally asking you to pray for a family in desperate need of as much prayer as possible. Bryce Norwood is the little cousin of very close friend of mine. Bryce is a 6 year old boy from Shreveport who has been battling cancer. He and his family have been at St .Jude’s for his treatments. At this point in time, Bryce is loosing his battle with cancer. His little body just can not fight anymore. He is now in very intense pain, and his parents are helpless. All they can do is try their best to comfort him. Bryce at age 6 is a Christian and understands that God is calling him home. With that being said he is only six and has fears (about death) that I am sure you would agree a child should never have to face.
With that being said, I feel that I must do SOMETHING to help. The only answer I get when I ask what I can do is this: PRAY!!! So I am in listing you to help me do just that. Please pray for this boy and his family… for comfort and peace for Bryce and comfort for his parents and siblings. Please take time to do this now, and as many times as you can during the days to come.
Thank You,
Amy

Happy New Year!
Dang where does the time go?
We had a great christmas holiday. While most people dread having their children home for 2 weeks I loved it! No having to go somewhere everyday. We could have jammie days if we wanted and Drew even slept in most days, well till 9 am. Drew loved having her "sissy" home all day everyday. They actually played quite nicely most of the time. Does she really have to go back to school on tuesday??? Rylie is counting down the days till she is able to go back and see her friends and her teacher. Only 2 more sleeps till school day as she refers to it. LOL
Drew is now talking up a storm and everytime she repeats something Steve and I just bust out laughing b/c we are not used to hearing her talk and it just sounds so cute! Her new favorite word (b/c R says it all the time) is AWESOME!! but it sounds more like AWE-TUM!!
Enjoy a few pictures and hopefully I will post more soon.
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

Wow, it has been a while...
I have been so super busy with the store and with trying to keep up with the girls.
Drew had her cardioappt. with Dr. Bob. It went good except her pulmonary artery is on watch now. It is a little narrow so they will keep and eye on it. He said if anything they may do a cath and put a ballon in it to stretch it. Just keep her in your prayers that it corrects itself. I had posted about this but blogger must have ate my post. She went to the cardio today here in town and she also said her pulses were great!
Last week the girls and I took a short 4 day trip to disney to see some girl friends. We had so much fun and we were sad to go but happy to come back home to Steve/daddy.
Amy, my mom, and I will be at the My Lady's Fair at the hetyman on November 10th. Please come by while we are there and visit. :) We also have coupons for $1 off to get into the craft fair on the counter at the store.
A huge thank you to all of my friends and family who have come by the make a purchase in the store. :) LOVE YOU!

Lemon Drop Lane
IS NOW OPEN FOR BUSINESS!!!!!!!!
Today was our first day open. We were quite excited but since people can't read our minds that we are now open we had very little business. LOL
Our sign is in the process of being made right now and they said we should have it no later than monday. We do have an ad that my mom added to hers on those little electronic billboards that you see in restaurants so hopefully the word will get out soon. We will also have an ad in a christian magazine that is starting up here in town soon. So tell everyone you know to come and visit us at 312 Guilbeau road across from The Gallery apartments.
The family is well. Drew has an appointment with Dr. Bob next week for her 6 month check up and I can't wait. We still LOVE Dr. Bob so it is always nice to see him especially since he always gives us good news about Drew.
Rylie started K4 on the 13th of August and boy was that a rough day for me. Of course I cried like a baby the whole day. Actually Drew cried too b/c we left her sissy behind. :(
Rylie loves every part of school except the part where she has to go to bed early. She gives us a hard time most every night. She also started dancing class today along with her friend Grace. Miss Rylie is one busy girl!
Drew is adjusting a little better without her being home all day. She does not like the fact that Rylie and Daddy both leave at the same time in the morning but she is getting better.
I will update soon with store pictures and pictures of the girlies.

Sick again
Drew started weezing last week and had a low grade fever so I took her to the ER at 5 pm b/c of course by then the dr's. office was closed. They did x-rays and told me she had pnuemoia???? HUH? So they sent us home and at 1 am she woke up weezing again really bad. We tookher back to the ER and it was determined that she did not have pnuemonia that she had croup. She has not even had a cough but whatever she is fine now, THANK GOD!
Her birthday is friday! Can you believe she will be TWO?!?!?!?!?!
I am still in shock and awe of my miracle.

Hello
Oh my goodness where do I begin. I see that it has been forever since I have posted anything.
We have been so busy around here lately. A friend and I are opening up a children's "boutique" in the smae building with my mom. So it has been non stop since this all began. More news on that later when things are more finalized. We are thinking sometime atthe end of august for the store to be open. So Look for further news on "Lemon Drop Lane". :)
Drew is doing so excellant! She doesn't talk much but she is quite smart. The past few weeks she has REFUSED to keep a diaper on. She now goes to the potty all on her own without anyone asking her. The girl is not even 2 yet! Speaking of 2, she will be on August 10th, my little miracle is such a blessing! And oh such a handful but I love her all the same. We don't have another cardiologist appointment until sometime in September. I think she weighs somewhere around 23 pounds, she eats everything all the time.
We went to the beach with our friend in June and had an awesome time. Drew hated the sand but loved everything else. She could have sand all over her from head to toe but refused to let it touch the bottom of her feet.
Lots of pictures to come.
