Thanks Krissy and Colette

So this is way over-do! When little Teague came so did my wonderful sister-in-laws. My past pregnancies they were pregnant too or just had a baby or in school. They were so willing and persistent upon helping. Like I am stubborn or something. I let them come and help and oh what a blessing. I never know what to do at first. I want to be a great host. They ask me what can they do...I am horrible at "suggesting" chores. Finally they kindly pushed me out of the way...and I did give in.

Krissy came while I was in the hospital and stayed for a couple of days to help adjust to being at home. She was nice company at the hospital and great help for David with the kiddos. Then she took Taylin and Cohen back to Houston with her for a few more days (along with her own three girls). As soon as they arrived they attended a family baptism and didn't stop for the next few days. Taylin and Cohen were well loved and taken care of. Taylin enjoyed her shopping spree (totally surprised...that was too much!). Cohen was most fond of his tie...still is a fave. He put it on his pajammas one morning while eating his bowl of cereal. They also enjoyed the inflatable playland. My goodness! Ryan and Krissy have some stamena. Then they drove the whole crew back to Temple and they drove back to Houston the same night.




Colette also sacrificed time away from her family to come and help with kiddos and motivate us to pack for the home we didn't know of yet.

Colette took the kiddos on an adventure walk around the complex. The kids love that. She gave us a day of quiet to get some good packing in (without kids taking things out of the boxes or putting random things in). She took all but Teague to the Cameron Park Zoo. They love their maps. We miss this zoo! They had a good time and everyone slept good that night! When the kids were occupied Colette helped pack up some boxes as well. Thank you so much!


Both of you allowed me to sleep in more than I have in a long time and helped the older kiddos feel loved during this transition. Ryan and Lance, thank you for letting your wives spend some time with us. You all are a blessing to have as family and even more than that great friends! We are very blessed and are very appreciative of the time you sacrificed for us. Teague felt all of your support and love and was glad to have a less stressed mom!
