2011 in Review

2011 has been a crazy, wild ride for us but we are all so blessed to be together, safe, healthy and happy! Read all about how we began the year in Louisville, KY, thought we were moving and ended up two more hours down the road in TN, found out we were having a baby, bought two cars, a house and started a new job! This year has yielded lots of surprises, tears, excitement and fun but through all of it we have learned our God is amazing and takes care of us despite what might knock us down, or throw us for a loop!

January We had just dealt with the news of not leaving for Philadelphia and we heard from Paducah they wanted Walker to begin work in February.

February We ended up not moving to Paducah, but rather Milan Tn. We traveled the 5.5 hours there with a loaded down truck and no where to live. Isn’t our God amazing? He took care of us. We found a place to live and our house in Louisville sold a few weeks after moving in. Now the search was on for a place to live in Milan.

March Davis turned two! What a fun age it has been! Timing was everything, because as soon as we found our new house in Milan a horrible storm hit the area which caused us to have to relocate to some friends and family homes for a week before moving in! We also lost our truck, and had some major damage to our car so we had to do some pretty hefty car shopping!

April We were finally able to settle in to our new home, town, and job. Davis was sickly and we knew that a new set of tubes would be in our future if he didn’t get better soon!

May We were right, Davis had his second ear tubes surgery this month! Despite a horrible experience Davis did well and has has had no ear issues since!

June We were one year a way from Lane and Rob’s big wedding day! Can’t wait!

July We went to the beach with the Wellington’s!

August  We finally began to settle in to a grove and have a lot less drama in our lives! Granted we had already met every deductible we have, minus our life insurance, so life was finally looking to be somewhat normal!

September We found out baby number two was headed our way! Davis has been excited since day one and cannot stop talking about his baby sister!

October I began to experience sickness from pregnancy and felt like I was not only in a coma for a while but that I would dry heave forever! Davis and his daddy helped me get all better with lots of rest, love and trucks!

November We celebrated Thanksgiving with my entire family in Louisville. My brother and his girlfriend from California were even able to come in for the holiday! Davis met Santa again and did NOT like him!

December We bought our second vehicle of the year due to some unexpected events with the JEEP! We made lots of memories with D’s third Christmas! We found out we were having a precious baby girl, named Emerson Oneita Wellington, aka, Emmy-o!

 Praying for a healthy, happy, fun, exciting 2012! Hopefully we will have less drama and more excitement but we know all is well as long as we are HIS! Things we will be praying for and looking forward to this coming year!

Emerson Oneita’s arrival…sometime mid to late April!
