Well, here it it folks. Our family blog. I never thought I would ever do this and I am not sure how good it is going to turn out but here it goes.
From the Beginning...
Thomas and I met in 2001, while we were both still in High School. He was graduating that year and I was a Sophmore. We made it through alot of heartache and growing up together. We said "I do" on Sept. 4, 2004; Thomas was in school to become a Utility Lineman and I was waiting tables.
After a month of marriage, we found out we were expecting our first child, then on June 11, 2005 we brought the amazing 6lb 1oz Cameron Dale into the world.
We lived in a small two bed room home that was getting smaller as Cameron was getting bigger. We found a home in November of 2006 that was forclosed and needed alot of work but God opened door after door and the home was ment to be ours!
The day before we signed papers on the house, we found out that we were expecting another child. God knew we needed the room! The second pregnancy was definatley a trial. It was a very rough time, I was in and out of the hospital cause the baby didn't want to stay in! The final two months that I was in the hospital and after multiple blood tranfusions we couldn't hold it off any longer! On June 21, 2007, Caden Thomas made his entrance in to the world at only 4lbs 1oz, he was almost seven weeks early.
He was in the hospiltal for a little while but was released in good health. At the age of six months we noticed that he was not progressing as well as he sould be. After many trips to Texas Childrens Hospital in Houston we found that he had pressure on his brain due to the steroids given while I was pregnant and his soft spots had closed. We were able to fix the problem, but he did have to wear a star band helment for almost a year.
Cameron was an amazing big brother! He helped mommy with everything and was very patient with the time that I had to give to Caden and the many long trips to Houston. Caden is now almost as big as Cameron and doing Great!
We have had amazing life experiences and God has blessed us with more than we could ever imagine. So here we are sharing the rest of our stories with you....
