I WON!
I just got a call from group publishing. They are a Christian company that our church buys alot of curriculum from or VBS stuff. I was surfing the web yesterday and looking at all their curriculum. I signed in and gave them my information. Today they called me and said I had won an iPAD 2. I was hoping I wasn't being scammed so I got on groups website and did a live chat with a lady to make sure it was legit. It was. I am just waiting until I have a minute to call them back to confirm. I am so excited right now I can't even think straight. I don't ever seem to win anything so I can't believe I won such a big item.

My Baby Girl!
Kastyn is growing like crazy. She will be 3 months old in 10 days!! :( She is getting so big and getting a sweet personality. My favorite thing to do is kiss her and love on her. I never dreamed I could love someone as much as I do her.
She has been sleeping really well also. She sleeps at least 6 hours during the night, most of the time it is more than that. She is almost holding her own bottle, not quite but getting close. She rolled over from her tummy to her back once. She will be going on her 1st date before I know it. I must cherish all of these little moments because they won't last long.
Justin started back to work this week finally. I was beginning to wonder if we were going to make it through winter or not. The LORD always provides though, I just need to learn to trust in Him more.

OMG!
Two funny stories out of the mouths of sixth graders.
One student told me today that OMG means Obama Must Go! HaHa! I thought that was very funny.
Another student was working on a paper for English in my class when he asked me if Obama was famous. I said, "Do must people know him." He then said Yes but he's not an American. LOL! I looked at his paper to see what he was doing and he was having to list famous Americans, he didn't end up putting Obama down as one. I just found that funny.

Time Flies!
Time flies when you have a newborn. Kastyn is already two months old and keeps growing like a weed. She had her 1st Valentine's day and her daddy and I got her a card and a stuffed puppy. She is getting more personality, and of course she is stinkin' cute.
The other day she rolled over from her belly to her back. She doesn't like tummy time so she fussed and fussed until she made it onto her back.
She has been to the sitter's house twice now. Right now Justin just has to work Fridays and Saturdays so I keep her on Saturdays and the sitter keeps her on Fridays.
Time is so precious and I love spending all the free time I do have with my beautiful little girl.

Seven Weeks
WOW! Kastyn will be seven weeks old tomorrow. Time is going so fast and she is growing so fast. The other night she slept for 8 hours, but has only done that once. I have to go back to work soon and I'm not looking forward to it. I have enjoy my time off hanging out with Kastyn and Justin. Kastyn has been such a blessing to us.
I think about my miscarriage and why the Lord would put me through that, but then I look at Kastyn and see my answer in her beautiful blue eyes. If I hadn't miscarried, she wouldn't be here. The Lord gives and the Lord takes away. We don't understand His plan sometimes but His plan is always the best. I can see that in Kastyn.
I have started my Masters classes and things seem to be going ok. I hope I can do it. I haven't been to school in 6 years so I am a little rusty. For my classes I got a new Kindle Fire and I am loving it. I can buy my books on that and save some money on them.
I am loving pinterest. I am getting so many creative ideas for food and for craft things to do with Kastyn when she gets older. I better get busy because she should be waking up soon and Justin is out fishing.

Settling In!
Kastyn, Justin, and I are settling in as a family and three. I am enjoying her so much and so is her daddy. Justin is laid off for this month so we have all gotten to stay home and get adjusted and settled.
Lots of family and friends have come to visit. All the grandparents except Papa Olson have gotten to see her. Well Papa Olson got to see her on Skype but not in person. Most of her aunts have too. Joy and Brooke are my two sisters that haven't gotten to see her. I know Joy is so ready to see her but she has been working and not had any time off. We live about 13 hours from her.
It's hard to have family so far away but I hope to visit family this summer.

Kastyn Kayde Porter
My last post said Almost Time and I was right. Kastyn Kayde Porter was born Dec. 11th, 2011 at 1:36 pm via c-section.
Justin and I were on our way to church and I said, "I think my water broke, I feel like I peed my pants." I went back into the house and changed. We got back in the truck and headed to church. Justin had to teach the youth that day so I didn't want him to have to miss it. He went to teach youth and I headed into church, on the way in I saw Pastor Jonathan and he teasingly said, "Don't let your water brake on our new chairs." We both laughed and then I told him what had happened on the way to church. He gets on the phone with his wife and she wants to talk to me. She tells me that I had better get to the hospital because she is definate that my water broke. While talking to her I felt it again and told her I was going. She called Pastor Jonathan back and he took over the youth while Justin and I left to head to the hospital....
Upon arrival to the hospital I kept feeling like my water was breaking more and more with each step I took. When I got to labor and deliver they took me back to a room to check to make sure I knew what I was talking about. They said my water didn't brake but it tore. Then they told me that they couldn't feel her head. I paniced..they took an ultrasound and said I would have to have a c-section cause she was breech. That was about 11 am. I hadn't had any contractions and was feeling pretty good. They got me all set up in the operating room and I had a c-section. At 1:36 pm my precious little girl Kastyn Kayde was born. Mommy and daddy couldn't be more proud. She was the most beautiful baby I had ever laid eyes on.
