Another Loss

2009-09-01T19:16:00.002-04:00

Aaron Joseph Johnson went to be with the Lord Saturday evening Aug 29th. He was 13 oz and 11 inches long. He got to hold him for awhile before I went to ICU with septic shock. I am doing better now and expect to go home tomorrow. Thanks to everyone for your prayers!

Heavenly Home!

2009-08-16T14:12:00.001-04:00

Baby Allie Lynn was taken to be with the Lord on Tuesday. She is in heaven with our Savior. Baby B who is a boy (no name yet) is doing well. His heartrate is great and has plenty of fluid surrounding him. I am still at St. Vincent Women's Hospital in Indy being treated with antibiotics. The risk of infection is high right now so they are monitoring me well. Thanks for your continued prayers!

Heartbeats!

2009-06-22T21:43:00.001-04:00

We heard heartbeats today! Not sure if it was both but Dr. Wickert said everywhere he moved on my belly he heard heartbeats so that was a good sign that both are doing well! Praise God!

11 Weeks!

2009-06-20T21:44:00.000-04:00

10 Weeks

2009-06-12T15:15:00.003-04:00

Tomorrow is 10 weeks! We saw them again on Wednesday. Both babies are getting big and actually look like babies now. They were moving and wiggling. It was so awesome to see them moving around! I tried to upload the ultrasound picture but it didn't work. Sorry!

2009-05-18T19:29:00.001-04:00

It's Twins!!!!!!!!!! We saw both heartbeats this morning!

Possibilty of Multiples!

2009-05-05T08:24:00.000-04:00

I had another pregnancy test Monday morning and my HCG went from 130 on Friday to 766! It was supposed to double in that time and it went up by almost 6 times. The nurse said sometimes that can mean there is more than 1 baby. We find out on May 18th how many babies there are. We are so excited. Keep praying please!

I'm Pregnant!!!! Due January 11, 2010.

Birthday Cake!!

2009-02-14T23:16:00.004-05:00

My loving husband made me a cake today! I had a very large piece. I told little Isaac Shaw (4years old) that "Miss Jamie only gets to eat cake once a year for her birthday". And he said to me "That's a bad year." I have to agree! But, alas, I have to get back on Weight Watchers tomorrow!

Birthday Fun with Friends!

2009-02-14T23:06:00.005-05:00

We had friends over on Valentines Day to celebrate my birthday which is the 16th. We had lots of fun! My friend Annie brought her extra newspapers and handed out lots of extra coupon inserts. I said I would rather have all those coupons on Valentines Day than a romantic dinner out!

Birthday Gift!

2009-02-14T23:01:00.003-05:00

Jamie installed a central vacuum system for me today as part of my birthday gift. It is very cool. All I have to do is sweep the dog hair into a port installed in the cabinet near the floor. You can also plug in a hose to it and vacuum all the way into our living room. I have never had more fun cleaning our carpet!

Free Stuff!!!

2009-02-12T21:02:00.003-05:00

Check out all the free stuff I got today! I got 20 Soft soaps, 4 pringles, 6 chex mix, 2 frostings, 2 eye make up removers, 1 fusion razor, 1 shampoo, 3 packs rubber bands thanks to Meijer, CVS and Staples!!

Yet Another Van Project!

2009-02-07T20:55:00.002-05:00

Jamie took off three days this week to do some modifications to his mobile sharpening van. He is always trying to tweak his set up to gain efficiencies and make his workspace more comfortable. He is a very hardworking guy!

Slumber Party

2009-02-06T22:14:00.003-05:00

Friday night Jan. 30th I helped out at the slumber party for the Wednesday night kids of faith 2nd and 3rd grade girls class. I have been helping in that class on Wed. nights all this school year and we had a slumber party at the community center last Friday. This is me and Abbie Shaw. She is my special friend. We had lots of fun eating, doing crafts and playing games and, of course, the girls stayed up half the night!

2009-02-06T22:04:00.007-05:00

Christine, Annie and I started an accountable/prayer group in June 08. We meet once a month. It has been great getting to know these gals better.

Saturday evening we had friends over. The Boltons and their 4 kiddos and the Shaws and their 2 kiddos. Jamie I had been together for 10 years on that date. Our first date was Jan 24th, 1999. had a really good day that day. Lots of fun with friends!

This is my goddaughter/cousin Genni (the cutie in the red shirt). She was born when I was in the hospital having my first bone marrow transplant. Her parents asked me to be her Godmother. We always exchange gifts at Christmas. She is a sweetheart!

Christmas Eve at my Dad's House

2009-02-06T19:17:00.009-05:00

One of Jamie's gifts from my dad was jumper cables. It's hard to believe, but he actually didn't have a set, so it was a perfect gift for him.

We played CatchPhrase after opening our gifts. My dad doesn't like games much but he was a good sport.

Every year we take a photo in front of the tree with just my dad, me, and my brother and sister. We have a photo album with just the pictures we take at Christmas each year. It's fun to flip through them and see how everyone has changed from year to year.

My bro Bud and Leah (aka Precious.)

Christmas Eve Birthday

The Christmas party for our church ABF (adult bible fellowship) was held last weekend. The white elephant gift we received was Hula attire. Jamie was a good sport and modeled for everyone at the party. This is a picture captured by one of our friends on his I-phone. I cautioned everyone not to post these on the internet because he has a business reputation to uphold but I couldn't help myself!

We had a great time this year at Disney World! We were able to go again this year for almost free thanks to our friend Peggy and the Panasonic Academic Challenge. Our friends Aaron and Ella were there also with their two boys, Eli and Jacob. This was the first time we got to see Jacob. What a beautiful baby. We stayed 6 days and 6 nights at the Contemporpary. Our room overlooked the Magic Kingdom. We had a great time and want to go back again.

Jamie and I went down home to Floyds Knobs in May to take advantage of a free day at Six Flags over Kentucky Kingdom complements of the Louisville Dream Factory-(they granted me a wish when I had cancer.) We also went to the Starlight Strawberry festival and had strawberry shortcake. All my family was there. We had lots of fun with family that weekend and had a great time at Kentucky Kingdom on Memorial Day. My mom bought us a beautiful hanging basket that weekend to take home with us. What a wonderful blessing to have so much family time!

FREEEEEEEEEEEEDOOOOOOOOOOOMMMM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WE PAID OFF MY STUDENT LOAN TODAY! We are one baby step closer to being debt free! We are following Dave Ramsey's plan for funancial freedom and because of how hard my precious sweetheart works in his sharpening business we were able to pay off my student loan. We started putting huge chunks towards it in January and once we got rolling it is so fun to see that balance go down every month! God is so good to us! Praise Him!

Van Project!

2008-04-13T21:09:00.000-04:00

Well here are some posts of the never ending van remodeling project! Thankfully, Jamie met his goal of being able to work more comfortably. His back is not hurting him anymore. We ended up working on this project for 12 days solid and he is still making some minor adjustments and getting things organized exactly the way he wants them. Praise God that his back is doing better. Please pray for us. He is in his super busy season right now and also behind from having those days off to work on the van. So those 2 things combined together equal a really busy sharpener! I haven't seen him other than at dinner and when we go to bed. It is just the season of life we are in right now. We are both trying to work as hard as we can so we can be in a better financial position for if and when the Lord chooses to bless us with a child.

Christmas 2007!

2008-04-01T19:52:00.000-04:00

This week, as some of you know, Jamie has been working on his mobile sharpening van. He has taken everything out and is rebuilding things so that it is more ergonomic for him. He enjoys doing this! I will post some pics of the finished project soon.

2008-04-01T19:50:00.000-04:00

These are some pics from my 30th Birthday! We had a great time at Don Pablo's. My mom-Lynn my brother Bud and his wife Leah and also my sister Hollie, Jamie's mom Molly and bother Matt were all there. It was fun turning 30. It was actually probably the best birthday I've ever had just because I was so thankful that I was alive. The Lord could have chosen to take me home when I was 16 so I am actually really thankful that I am 30. I am rejoicing that HE has given me these extra 14 years that I wasn't expected to live. PTL!!

Disney World Fun!
