Pictures!!!

Here are a few christmas pictures I promised. Here she is surrounded by her presents.

Finally a Visit

Yesterday my longtime friend Melissa came over for a visit. Melissa and I have been friends since grade 6! Thats almost 13 years. She had a son, Beckhem, two months after Lilah was born. It was so much fun being pregnant at the same time. She lives in Surry so we don't see eachother as much as we would like. Her son is also pretty high maintenance and colicky so she doesn't leave the house very often. But yesterday she made it out (mind you she only got to my house at 6:30pm)! I will post a pic soon. I know I always say that but we didn't go to my mom's this week so I couldn't use her computer, so sunday hopefully.
On another note Aaron got his settlement for his honda!!!!!! $6500.00:) Aaron would have liked 7500 but we're not complaining! He also bought a car of my parents friends for $300 so he can take that to work. Insurance is also really cheap as well. Aaron also went back to work today doing deliveries. He might be really sore tomorrow but he was going stir crazy around the house! Thats all for now.

A Short Update

There is not too much to tell you. Aaron is still pretty sore in his chest but he did go back to work on friday. He didn't deliver any furniture he just worked in the warehouse. He met with the icbc claims adjuster but what he'll get for his car is still unknown, or if he'll get anything at all. He also went to the chiropracter and said that was the biggest waste of $! He also went to the motor vehicle branch and sat there all day waiting for a cancellation to get rid of his N. He was able to take the test and passed! Thank God! He sat there for 7 hours before he took the test!

Anyways on a happier note tonight we are going to an engagement party for Aaron's sister Julie and her fiance Greg! They got engaged on christmas morning! The wedding day is June 2, 2007! We are very excited for them. The whole wedding will take place at Heritage Valley so it will be very nice!

Even Gloomier Days

So on friday night Aaron was in a car accident:( It happened at around 2:30am. He had been out with a couple guys from work and was coming home. I talked to him on the phone at 1:40am and he said he would be home in 45 minutes. His cell phone died after that so when I tried calling him there was no answer. Needless to say I was very worried. I definately felt led to pray for his safety and opened my Bible to Psalm 23 "The Lord is my shepherd..." The verse that popped out at me right away was "even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death I will fear no evil for thou art with me, thy rod and thy staff they comfort me". I kept reading this over and over. I finally woke my mom up at 3:20am when I still hadn't heard from Aaron. She sat with me and prayed, that was my only comfort. Aaron finally called at 4:15am and told me he was in an accident! I felt so much relief to hear his voice but couldn't believe he had an accident. He had called from the ambulance using their cell phone. He had turned the car into what he thought was the fast lane but instead hit a curb than a pole. He was able to get out of the car and walk. He totaled his Honda Civic:( There must have been many angels protecting him because the police officer said at the speed he was going he should have been seriously injured even killed. He is very sore in his ribs from the airbag but that is all! I will post pictures of the car soon. Now he has to deal with ICBC:( Please pray for our future as it is uncertain. He will probably loose his drivers liscense. There are definite consequences for his actions that night. But God is a forgiving God and I am a forgiving wife. Thank you for praying!

Our Little Family

Yeah Pictures!

I am over at my mom-in-laws right now. So I will try and post as many pics as I can. Aaron's sister Holly took these Christmas pictures of Lilah! It is so nice to have a photographer in the family.

Aaron's dad bought this dress for Lilah! So adorable!

Here she is! A pianist already.

My Hubby and my Baby!

Gloomy Days

Well all the festivities are over. I always get very sad this time of year. I like to have something to look forward to. Last year at this time I was halfway through my pregnancy and looking forward to my baby. On new years day at 2am was the first time I felt Lilah move in my belly. So amazing! This year at 2am on new years day I was rocking my sick baby back to sleep. Not very much fun but I do love cuddling her and watching her fall asleep in my arms. She looks so angelic.
I took down my christmas decorations yesterday and helped my mom take down hers today. It always feels so less cluttered with everything put back in its place. I got the news about Heidi this morning from my mom! How exciting to have a New Years Baby! Congratulations Heidi. I'm so excited to meet Tristen soon!
Now, I've tried posting more pictures and I wait and wait and 15 minutes later its still downloading! The first two time it was less than 1 minute so I don't know what the problem is?:(
I will keep trying but who knows.
