Catching up...

Well, I am behind once again with the blog. I am going to try and be better about this as we get closer to having the baby, but once she gets here, I won't make any promises!

We have been busy since I last posted about Cantley's birthday. The weekend after her birthday Jonathan took me to see Brad Paisley in Shreveport. CAntley got to go stay with Aunt Lisa and Uncle Cliff. Well, that not went to pot quickly. We got a text at the end of the night saying C had fever and complaining of her ear. We left, headed home, and she started throwing up. By the time we got home, we started breathing treatments and slept only a few hours that night. It was the weekend, but we made to some great Dr.s at our clinic and found out she had RSV again, 5th disease and an ear infection. Once again, RSV strikes up hard, but she bounced back just in time to make our annual Feb. trip to Virginia.

Our trip was great! Kruse was 10 days old when we got there and boy was he a little doll. We all got warmed up to him quickly, even Cantley. She did keep asking if we could shut up that whining, but she enjoyed him while he was sleeping or eating! Kason and Cantley really lived it up together. Uncle Jonathan was a hit with Kason as well. Me, well, I did some cooking, cleaning, and holding that baby when I could. Katrina was feeling really well so we got a little girl time in with shopping for a few hours. By the time we left we were exhausted, but so sad to leave. We also hated to get home knowing we would be that much closer to having our baby! After seeing Kruse and getting that shock of remembering what a new born is like....we are wondering if we are really ready for this baby to get here!

We do have a name for the baby now. Ryne Michelle Gosdin. Ryne is after Ryne Sanberg, the baseball player. Michelle is my big sister's name. Cantley had some great suggestions like sleeping beauty, Ariel, etc., but we chose Ryne instead. She is happy with it now that she realizes we aren't changing it. She loves to squeeze my belly and talk to her little sister. She tells us daily all the things she will do with her, share with her, and teach her.

The pregnancy is going well. We have had a few catch ups here and there, but my dr. is taking great care of me. We will have our 4-D ultrasound in a few weeks so I hope to have some neat pictures to post.

Baseball season is going. That's about all I can say. We have won 2 games, both big wins, but not enough for the talent that we have on our team. We hope to see that swing in the right direction very soon.

Cantley starts tee ball at the end of this month so we will have 2 teams to follow now!

A breathing treatment. What a trouper!
Sharing Popsicles with Kason!

Enjoying the wonderful warm weather on her bike!
