We're still here

Well, I lost my camera and it's a little bit challenging writing a blog on Jason's phone but here I am :) We are doing good! The last few weeks have been crazy busy I started watching kids again, my Dad had a heart attack and some very good friends moved in with us for a while.

I'm watching kids a few days a week. So I have Kenya who is 3, Sadie is almost 2, Colt is 4 months and Judah just turned 2 months old. It sounds crazy but I get a lot more done with all the kids here. I will try to start my Tiny Treasures Tuesday posts again to keep you all in the loop.

My Dad is doing good and is home. He is sore but glad to be alive. Thank you all for praying for him!

We are really loving our friends living with us. We all share the house work and cooking and it just works.

I'm hoping to do Judah's 2 month old post tomorrow even though it's a week late :)

Here are a few pictures of the kids until I do a real post tomorrow.

This is the first time I was able to get Judah's smile on camera. (The camera on Jason's phone that is)

Judah just chillin and Kenya being silly.


Kenya loving on her baby brother.

That is all until tomorrow.

Vanessa's Dad had a heart attack/ UPDATE/ Last Update

I just wanted to say thank you guys so much for praying my Dad went home from the hospital yesterday. I'm so surprised at how fast he recovered. I am just praising God for his recovery.

------------------

My Dad is doing a lot better! They removed the balloon from his heart so it is now pumping on it's own. He is now breathing on his own and they will remove the ventilator in the morning if he is still doing good. He has a long way to go but he is making progress. Thank you so much for praying!

Hey this is Vanessa and I'm writing this from Jason's phone so please forgive any typos. I just wanted to ask for prayer for my Dad he had a massive heart attack today. His heart stopped for about 20 minutes. They were able to start it again and do surgery. They put a stent and a balloon in his heart. He is also on a vent and hooked up to tons of iv's. He had a second heart attack after the surgery and his heart stopped again. They got it started and got him moved to the icu. We were able to see him but he is sedate so he was not awake or responding to us. There are lots of details I'm leaving out but will write more once I can. Please please be praying!
