Info for Charter Communications Customers

I called Charter tonight to make changes to my service since my promotion ended. (most of you know how much I love talking to Charter employees on the phone(NOT!!)) After a lovely conversation, (and I actually mean that, the guy was great) he told me about a new promotion that Charter has just started. For every dollar that you spend on services(before taxes and fees) you get points added onto an account and as they add up you can make purchases from a catalog or register for prizes. I went and checked it out and it is legit. All you have to do is go to www.liveitwithcharter.com and register. As you pay your bills it will add the points to your account. I guess we should get some added benefits since we pay so much for cable and Internet. I already do a program like this with Pampers and Coke so I am so excited. I just thought I would share this information for those that are interested. After a long and frustrating day of having the hot water heater replaced after discovering it was broken, this was a little bit of good news. I hope some of you will take advantage.

My SIL's New Venture

My wonderful SIL has been making bows for me. She saw for OK and said she thought she could make them. She has gotten more and more creative and created some really cute butterflies, daisies, and lady bugs. She is going to be selling these as well as regular bows if anyone is interested in buying them. She can do any color and loves making them. She is charging $3.00 for the regular bows and $3.50 for the specialty ones. This is a deal if you have ever bought these bows in a boutique. You can either reply to this post or give me a call if you are interested. Here are a couple of pictures of her new creations.

Welcome to the Family

Today, our dear friends Uncle J and Bees were blessed with another little miracle to add to their family. Baby J was born at 9:52 am weighing in at 7lbs 6ozs and measuring 21 inches in length. His mom is a birthing champ. 4 years ago they were blessed with another precious baby boy. We think of WJC as our nephew because J and Bees are like family. We are so excited to add another nephew to our family. Welcome to the World sweet baby boy and welcome to our family. We can't wait to watch how God will work in your life and we are so blessed to be a part of it. Congrats Uncle J and Bees on your beautiful blessing. Here is a picture of me with the new addition. Due to CTW's crazy job, he and OK have not met Baby J yet. We hope to remedy that tomorrow.

One Year and a Quarter

Friday, we took OK for her 15 month apointment. I can't believe that she is already 15 mos old. She weighed a whole 19 lbs and is 29 inches long. The doctor was majorly impressed with how much she has grown. She has gained 15 lbs in 15 mos. It is hard to believe that a year ago I had a 3 month old that weighed 6 lbs. She was the most amazing thing I had ever seen then as well as now. I can't believe that God has blessed us with such a wonderful little girl and that he has granted my wish to be home with her. It is amazing watching her imitate CTW and I and to watch her explore the small things that we take for granted like the feel of the carpet, the grass on your hands, the coldness of ice, and the bliss that water sprayed from the garden hose brings. Thank you to everyone who prays for our sweet little girl and her development.

What is she up to these days? Well to name a few:

Spinning in circles
Walking backwards
Playing in the yard
Climbing onto the couch from her little pink chair
Saying Eat constantly
Asking us to Read or commanding us is more like it
Kicking the ball
Eating M&Ms

Bows

My dear SIL has started to make bows for OK. She brought them to me at my dad's birthday celebration(Happy Birthday Daddy). They are so cute. She did a few traditional bows and then she handed me the cutest ones I have ever seen. She said after practicing and doing some research on the web she came up with a new design. The picture below shows the butterfly she created. She says she can do frogs, ladybugs, daisies, and a few others. If anyone is interested, she is going to start selling them. Just let me know and I will see what she can do.



Our Trip to the Strawberry Patch

Grandma and I wanted to go pick berries, so on Saturday we piled up in one car and headed out. The weather was great for picking berries, not too hot and overcast. We had a great time. It was OK's first trip. OK got really dirty and loved squishing the strawberries between her fingers and then eating it off her fingers. Some shout and a bath cleaned her right up. I cherish these moments so much. Thank the Lord that we can have them.
