We still have our Zachy!

My heart is exploding with gratitude to my Heavenly Father today. I still have my Zachy. I can’t help to think about all the “what if’s”. What if…. The car would have gone done the cliff… Zach would have fallen out with the car on top of him. What if… in the CAT scan they would have found internal bleeding. What if my nephew, Porter that was over was behind the car? What if Stacy, who is in cast and on crutches, was behind him when she was hobbling out to her car? What if I tried to stop the car? It could have been SO much worse. I also can’t help but think about the little kid that was in the news yesterday that crawled under his uncles truck to get a toy right when his uncle jumped in and accidently ran over and killed him. I have the best little boy in this world. For some reason, Heavenly Father trusts me to raise him an teach him what he needs to know so he can grow up and serve and do what he Heavenly Father needs him to. There is no doubt that He has a plan for Zachary. I am so thankful to be his mom. AND I’m so thankful that we still have our Zachy!

It all happened so fast. I was attmepting to stop the car until Darron yelled at me to get out of the way. Jared tryed twice to stop it, but quickly found out it was going to fast to stop. Then he new he needed to get Zachary out of the car before in ran of the edge. While Jared was pulling Zach out.... well, I don't know how it all happend but Z ended up betwwen the door and the big green electrical box that he is now standing on in the picture.

This speaker box is the pattern that is on Zachary's arm and Uncle Jared's leg.

Heavenly Father was watching out for us last night.

We are so blessed to have Zachary with us. Yesterday he jumped in in the car (passenger side) to grab a pack of bubble gum.

Next thing he new he was rolling down the driveway backwards, heading for the dropoff that is accross the street from us.

Luckily, when the car hit the curb across the street, it turned the wheels and it crashed into the big green electical box.

A thumb sucker?!?!

Michelle is always sucking on her knuckles. I have been trying to keep her from sucking her thumb, but she is persistent. She spits out the bink and in goes the hand. The band aids on her thighs are from her shots she got yesterday. It was so sad.

Growin' like a weed!

Michelle is such a good baby. She has been so fun to have in our family. You can alway count on her to make you smile. She LOVES Zach and Ash. As soon as the big sister and brother her in the morning they are the first ones to welcome her to a new day. They love to hold her and be with her. She had her two month old check up yesterday. She is now 11.9 pounds (55th %), and 25 inches (98th %). And health as can be. Lately she has been outside a lot watching us work out in the yard. She really enjoys being outside, just like the rest of us.

Here are my cute kids... I can't believe we have three now! This was taken about a week ago.

We blessed Michelle on Easter Sunday. As you can see... she looked beutiful. We had a lunch afterwards and then an Easter Egg hunt after lunch. Lisa and Stacy made cookies and frosting for the kids to color Easter eggs.

Ash and Michelle. Ashlee loves her little sister and always wants to hold her.
