Barrett's First Sleepover!

 

Barrett has had a best friend since he was 1 day old.  His name is Max and he lives, well did live, right across the street.  Barrett was born September 1, 2008 and Max was born September 2, 2008.  Friday, December 28, 2012, Max moved to Richmond, IN.  Barrett had to learn his first life lesson.  Sometimes its hard to loose a friend.  Who is he going to play with everyday?  Ride a bike with?  Wrestle with?  Argue with?  Eat McDonald's happy meals with? Play transformers with? All in all, it just stinks that our buddy had to move away.  Before Max left for Richmond we let the boys have their first sleepover.  It was a success!  They got along, had fun, and went to sleep!  Max we will miss you, but we promise to stay in touch.  

Pigtails!

First time Lucy can wear piggies:) Love it!

Christmas 2012

What a difference a year makes. Last year we were at Riley Hospital for Christmas and this year we were all home and together! Christmas 2012 was filled with lots of fun memories.  We ate brunch at Woodland Country Club with Santa, Gma & Gpa Gooch, Aunt Kiley and Uncle Mike.  We opened lots of toys, made cookies for Santa, wrote Santa our first note, and visited Jolly Days at the Children. We went to Christmas Eve services with the kids, and then had dinner and presents with the Beyers side. We ended the Christmas season with a blizzard outside.  We are so thankful and blessed to be where we are today.

 Poor Barrett woke up Christmas morning with a fever.  An hour later, we found an immediate care open.  Diagnosis: strep throat.  Next task, finding a pharmacy that was opened. Mission accomplished and he is all better:)
