Some Pics of the kids

I wanted to share some fun photos of the girls.

Addyson returning to Ms. Julie's preschool.


My Girls!





I finally got around to it...

Okay, so it's been 7 months since I last posted. I've been busy. Let me fill you in on the latest and greatest...


The major reason for the delay in posting is that I've been busy incubating a baby! Finally baby Ella Vivian arrived on August 10 debuting at 10:36 pm. She weighed in at a slim 9 lbs 13 oz and was 22 inches long and a ton of dark hair! It has been an adjustment with a new baby in the house. I remember the first time I left the house with her - I had to pack a diaper bag and didn't know what to put in it. Unfortunately, Ella has reflux pretty bad. We've tried several medications that have helped a little, but she is still miserable. On top of that she also has colic. Fun times at the Fowler home! A few weeks ago at church (the only time I've ventured back since her birth) we talked about the plan of salvation and it's been on my mind ever since. We all knew what our life was going to be like before we got here - what the "plan" is. Well, some of you know I'm a planner (call it control). Some of you also know what a struggle it was to have more children. Well, had life gone according to MY plan and we'd had Ella several years ago, as I wished, I don't think I would have made it having two small children. I firmly believe that everything happens for a reason. Ella was born at the right time. A time Heavenly Father knew I would have the strength to deal with her struggles. It also helps that she is sooooo cute! It is amazing she is almost 8 weeks old!
