2011

Okay so we had a very eventful 2011
First Madelyn turned the big 1 in january. savanna potty trained in january. we started to cloth diaper full time with madelyn. Madelyn had her second eye appt and her prescription hasn't changed and started wearing her glasses more. In March we found out the baby we were having was going to be a precious bouncing baby boy he was very active lil one in my belly. they girls were so excited that we were having a brother as well as us. we were in disbelief that we were finally having a boy. so we spent months preparing for a lil boy we sold all our girl stuff to buy boy stuff we had to get a new crib since the one we had had been recalled due to it being a dropside. we had a bump in our marriage this past yr. but that got resolved fast. and now we are happier than ever. My mom had major surgery and so we went to see her after. My cousin came and saw the girls around easter and we finally had our first easter as just a family.  then my final trimester of my pregnancy got super busy with appts for the baby appts trying to find out why i was passing out I had 2 sleep tests don't and never found out why. I had a baby shower in may thanks to a friend . I felt horrible no one came but one person.  then July came around i started having contractions every 5 mins on july 2nd we went to l &D 8 times before i had our angel . and they kept just sending us home. we celebrated our 2 yr ann july 10 ... then i was induced at 41 weeks with my still very active little boy. after 8 hrs of induction they broke my water but he still wouldn't drop. he went into distress and died on the way to the or for an emergency csection. so instead of bringing our handsome lil chunky baby boy  home we were sending him for a autopsy and then to the funeral home. and planning for a funeral back home. august 6 we buried our beautifully baby boy. also 2 days prior to cameron dieing we lost robs grandmother. our entire family was under so much grief no one knew what to do after losing 2 very important people. within 2 days. then on savannas birthday (aug 13th) we moved back on base into new housing. and savanna started preschool 2 days a week for 3 hrs a day she abs loves going to school  are still to this day trying to figure out how to be normal again. we live with cameron in our daily lives. september we made another trip to MD for madelyns eye appt and decorated camerons grave. then we went back to NC. In october we had a balloon release for infant and pregnancy loss day. it was so beautiful. we made the decision to try for a nother boy so rob is getting "unfixed" soon. even if we have a girl we will be happy as long as the baby is healthy and ALIVE BUT we are hoping for a boy. we celebrated thanksgiving with our amazing new neighbors then we came on leave for the holidays so we could see my brother in law before he ships out for deployment.  and  that brings up to the new yr we did a balloon release on NYE for camerons 5 months with all 4 kids and rob n I.
