Guess who's 40??

Saturday is the big day-Tim is the big 4-0! We are inviting friends and family over to watch Michigan beat someone on Saturday (I'm not sure who they are playing yet!!). The game starts at noon. So come on by watch some football and razz Tim about getting old!!
I will have snacks and refreshments.

Nearly 4!

I nearly have a 4 year old. Lizzie will be 4 years old next Wednesday. Last night as she was running around the house screaming and chasing Toby, I wished for a moment that my house was quiet again. Tim and I were married 7 years before we had Liz. I'm glad that we had those years for quiet dinners, golf vacations, sleeping in and more importantly to me-be able to fufill my career dream-becoming a PA.
Then I decided I wanted to be pregnant NOW! I would ask Tim, "when will I get pregnant?" Ok-a bit impatient because my wish came true about 3 months later. Then towards the end of my pregnancy, I would ask Tim "when am I ever going to have this baby." I know I said those words about 4 years ago. I couldn't wait for her to be with us, we have loved most of our 4 years with the lovely Liz. She makes us laugh with the things that her mind dreams up. Recently she was looking at our wedding picture and asked where did Daddy's belly go when we got married! Those who know Tim are getting a good laugh about now!! (Tim will not be happy for that comment, so shhhhhh!)
Yes, we love her and can't believe that we have a little girl now instead of a baby. It brings tears to my eyes.
Time flies when you are having fun!!

Prayer request

Last night my mother called me with "that tone" in her voice. My grandmother (mom's mom) had an ultrasound that showed a large mass on her liver, 99% possiblity that's cancer and most likely a secondary site. My grandmother will have another CT but beyond that she does not want any further treatment. So its very sad for us, especially my mother. So I ask for everyone to keep my grandmother in their prayers and a prayer for my mother to have the strength to get through my grandmother's illness.
