Life's little gifts

Okay, so when everything is going well I can expect something to go wrong. It never seems to fail. My family in a whole was doing well, Alison and I are now expecting our 5th child. Her first appointment will be on Wednesday 6/23. I know it's early but I cannot wait to see this new little one. In truth, I'm nervous. I hope everything with this baby is fine. I know that no matter what Lexi and I will love the baby no matter what but I just cannot help be nervous.

Then all of a sudden our hot water start getting air in the line. I'm thinking that one of the pipes in is starting to plug up because of the hard water and that the hot water tank isn't filling all the way up causing the air in the line. Any way we haven't really dealt with that yet.

Then to top things off my grandfather got sick about two or three weeks ago and just got worse until this weekend (6/19/10) he passed away. I feel like crap because I never took a moment out of my schedule to go see him before he passed away. I really feel bad for my mom. All her adult life she helped her parents. I mean for almost 15 years we lived right next door, which was actually like living in the same house. Mom did everything for them and then when she moved away her biggest worry was not being able to make it back in time before he parents passed. Then when her father got sick she thought she had enough time to get back but she was wrong and she really feels bad about it. Now, after all that my grandmother had to go to the hospital yesterday because her diabetes could not be stabilized. Due to stress or something else beyond her control her sugar dropped to 40 and would not raise. Oh and I didn't mention that now grandma needs to have blood transfusions because her blood count will not raise to a normal level.

Okay, now that I have vented let me just say I cannot wait until this baby is born and don't tell Alison but I'm going to be the one to name this baby. Well, until next time take care and may God take care of you and your family.
