Excuse my hiatus

Yeah it's been about a month since I posted. You'll have to excuse me on that. It's been a rough few months. I will try and catch you up on everything that has happened so far.

Uhm I believe I last left off with our friend in a coma, my friend miscarrying, and my grandmother-in-law passing away, right?

Well our friend passed away the night before Thanksgiving. His funeral is this Friday. It's going to be really hard for my husband. I don't think it's quite hit him yet. He won't really talk about it to me either. I would be an emotional mess if something like this happened to my best friend. I wouldn't be able to function. I can't even imagine how his family and other friends feel. I've known him for 5 years, he walked in our wedding, he lived with us for a few months, he was there for birthday parties, our housewarming party, bachelor/ette parties...all the fun and even some of the sad stuff. He will be greatly missed by all who knew him.

Our friend fought a long hard battle before passing away. He never woke up from his coma, but his brain swelling had gone down. They had amputated his left leg, and had came to the conclusion that he would of been blind if he woke up. His eyes had quit responding to light tests, and a CAT scan proved little to no eye function.

My best friend Amanda suffered a miscarriage. Her and her boyfriend tried for another immediately and she got pregnant again right away. I hope this baby (or babies) stick! Yeah babies...you read that right...she might be having twins. She finds out today. Her HCG levels went up from like 1500 last Weds at 4 weeks 2 days to 9000 something as of Tuesday. Her doctor arranged for an US today. So we'll see what's going on then.

Uhm nothing really else to update y'all on about anyone else other than Calleigh.
She has 4 molars coming in right now. That's no fun. It's not affecting her sleeping at night but she is extra fussy during the day. I've been trying to keep the teething stuff on her gums and giving her those cold water filled things to gnaw on. She is saying so many words right now; mama, dadda, bubby, dog, that, night night, love you but it sounds like lo yo, hey, bye, yummy, gabba gabba...the list goes on. She's a smart little cookie. I can tell her to go get something and bring it to me or to someone else and she'll do that. She likes to shut doors, and open the dogs kennel! She's definitely a handful right now.
