So much and so little pictures...

I really have a ton of stuff that I want to post, HOWEVER, my lovely husband will not fix our computer to upload our pics off of our camera, and I can not figure it out. So, needless to say I don't have pics to go with my post. I will add some random ones, but they will have nothing to do with the things I have to share. So here goes...

As some of you may know we have let a young man by the name of Adam Parker move into our house and he goes to Gainesville High School where Jeremy teaches and coaches. Adam has come down with mono!!! Poor thing is exhausted and just does not feel great. I feel so bad for him because he only has two weeks left in baseball season and he has been ordered to sit out so that he stays safe. The danger with mono is that your spleen can swell and any activity that could cause that to rupture could be very unsafe. So, needless to say he is just going to be sitting watching a lot of baseball, while trying to keep his icky germs to himself. Well, Jeremy and Adam, ended up sharing a drink before Adam was diagnosed with this lovely sickness and he started to feel pretty icky too, so off to the doctor he went. The doctor tested him for mono and thank goodness that came back negative, but while at the doctor's office they discovered he needed to have his gall bladder removed. WHAT??? That is what I said. So we are going to try and make it to the end of baseball season and then have that minor surgery.

Landon has an ENT Dr. visit scheduled for Monday the 28th. You should see this child's tonsils. (You could if Jeremy would fix the camera to download my pics) They are humongous! When we went for his two year check up and his doctor asked if I noticed him snoring a lot. I said yes, he snores like a 40 year old man. Well, she says, he has extremely large tonsils. She told me she would like to try and wait to take them out until he is 5 because, listen to this, they could grow back and we may have to have the surgery more than one time, if we do it before that. Anyways, they are so large now, that I notice him stopping breathing every now and then and then will gasp for air. Like sleep apnia in older men. So, we have an appt., and I am almost sure they will say they need to be removed. Sounds like the hospital will know the Kemp clan well here in the next few weeks.

Well enough boring medical drama with my family. I hope that I can get you some pics up of Addie's birthday here in the next few days. Also, I have some really cute ones of the kids just playing around being their normal hyper selves. I will leave you with a pic of Landon and Addie at Addie's newborn photo shoot. My favorite picture so far of the two of them.

Addie is 1!!!

I thought that a good first post to catch you up on things is Addie's first birthday. This little girl came into our lives 3 weeks early, and just came right on out (if you know what I mean)! She has been a wonderful baby, as was Landon, and I could not be more thankful for her! She is still super sweet and very girly. She sings all the time, and I mean ALL the time. She gets embarassed easily and hides her face with this very coy smile whenever you catch her doing anything that she knows is cute. She loves Landon, and looks for him first thing every morning. Once she finds him she always goes and lays her head on him first thing and he gives her the biggest hugs and kisses, sometimes a little too enthusiastically! She is a true joy, and I am honored God chose Jeremy and I as her parents! I look forward to the rest of our lives with this wonderful addition!

She was born only weighing 5 lbs. Now, while she has definitely grown, she is still my long and lean girl. She weighs 19 lbs. and is 29 1/2 in. long. She is totally supermodel status the doctor tells me! We had one of her parties at my in-laws house on Saturday and had that whole clan up to their house for food and of course lots of chaos! Some of you may not know, but there are 9 grandchildren and 7 of are under the age of 6. So needless to say that is what loud house when we are all together. I will put pics on a later post.

Happy Birthday Addison Kay Kemp, April 15 2007! WE LOVE YOU ADDIE!

Here We Go....

So, I have recently stumbled across the blogging world, and have become a bit obsessed. I love to look into people's lives and see how they live, and frankly just find it captivating. Then I started thinking what a great way to keep my family, who is spread everywhere, posted on everything that is going on in our crazy, but extremly blessed lives.

I will try and post on a pretty normal basis with pictures and all. I am trying to figure this out as I go along, so hang with me. I hope that you enjoy our family, and like I said try to keep up.
