Life's a Beach!


This was Madison's first time at the beach! Corrie and I took her Monday. She loved the water, but the sand, not so much. It didn't taste as good as she thought it would. Mom Corrie dressed her up cute and slathered her in sunblock. We're looking forward to taking the girls together this summer. As you can see, Miss Madison can't wait to play with Mia and share her goldfish with her. It was a beautiful day at the beach, and a beautiful day for a walk...
Which brings me to my next story. I went on a walk along the beach, trying to get Mia to get down closer to the way out. I ended up pushing myself a little to much and a little too far away from our blanket. On my return, I had severe pain in my belly, which made it difficult to walk, and the farther I went, the more painful and panicked I became. I came to the conclusion I was not going to be able to make it back on my own. A fisherman came and helped me flag down the garbage can man riding along in his golf cart as several old ladies waved him down from the pool deck of a condo. I was very grateful as he compassionately understood my predicament. He delivered me to Corrie who was growing more worried. We packed up and headed to the hospital to make sure everything was ok. Toby got an anxious call and got to the hospital despite the Orlando traffic. We checked out ok and Mia was just floating happy in there. Mommy is just not allowed to push herself anymore, or walk by herself anymore. We got home after notifying everyone that we were all ok.
Needless to say, we made sure we packed the bag for the hospital and tie up all the lose ends before she finally does decide to join us. If she doesn't come by Monday, we are going in for an induction that day, the 24th. Please pray that we all do all right. Yvette and Heather will be the informers. If you want to check the progress, call them. We'll be talking to them and updating them. Love you.

She's almost here!! So exciting. I can't wait until we're able to come down and meet her and hug your neck!
