Big Brothers are the Best

This pictures proves it!

No one can take care of her like her brother!!

Daniel and I were finishing eating dinner one night this week

(probably the only night we actually sat down and ate dinner!)

and we asked Triston to take his sister and entertain her for a few minutes while we cleaned up.

Yes, we are spoiled to have such a great helper!

Then a few minutes later we called him back into the kitchen for something, I can't even remember what.

But before he came in he had to make sure that lil' sis was safe and sound while he was gone!

As you can see from the picture above, he just takes such good care of that girl!!!

One, little...Two, little...Three, little O'Neils!!

It has not quite been a year since delivering my first bundle of joy. And as you know, the past year has been an adventure of sorts. We have survived more than we ever imagined possible. And now, we have a new adventure to embrace.

We are expecting, again!

I am, officially, 6 weeks and 2 days. My due date is set at October 9, 2010.

Why is this such an adventure, you ask?

Well, where should I begin? How about the fact that we are in a 90 day period prior to getting any kind of health insurance. The fact that we still have a rather large hospital bill to pay for open heart surgery. What about us only having 3 bedrooms in this house, and I do not like the idea of putting two little ones in a room together only to wake each other at every possible moment. Can you guess that we would have a hard time footing the bill for 3 kids in daycare. Looks like one of us will need to stay at home. Well, I won't continue to wear you down with all my worries. I just thought you would like a peek inside my mind!

All in all, we are ecstatic. I mean how could we not be? We are blessed that God is granting us with this gift. And honestly, we know He will provide. He has thus far and He will continue to. We are resting and trusting in His desire and commands. So, hang on this could get chaotic (but we LOVE chaos)!!!!

A Furry Visitor

We love visitors! Especially ones like the one we had Thursday night. It was right before bed but we had to see the newest member of our extended family. My brother and sister-in-law adopted another (yes, they already have two) dog to add to their family! And, yes, I think they are crazy! But the little guy is a cutie!!

Little Maddox was a hit with Tris.
He has a knack with our four-legged friends!


It may look like he is peeing on my floor but, he's not!

He did that later!!
