Welcome, sweet Mackenzie

It's been a big week! Last Thursday (July 9) Greg's sister, Eileen, was brought to Norfolk General because of some complications in her pregnancy. I won't get in to all of the details here, but the end result was that her baby was born Monday morning, July 13th at 12 weeks early. She is so tiney. Mackenzie is in the NICU at CHKD in Norfolk, Eileen has been released after a few days in the hospital to start recovering from her surgery, and is staying at the Ronald McDonald house while the baby is still in the NICU. Mackenzie has so much personality, you just wouldn't believe it. She reacts to people touching her, knows her mommy's touch, and hates when the nurses don't warm the stethascope before putting it on her chest. The other thing she really hates is her tempature being taken- under her arm! She doesn't even know how bad it could be, hehe. We appreciate your prayers in this situation, as we know that's what will get everyone through it.



In case you were wondering, the offer on our house was pulled back before we reached an agreement becuase the buyer and his wife decided not to get a divorce... so he didn't need a condo to move to. Our first reaction was to call him and let him know that we had heard she had been sleeping around... I'm just kidding. We are happy for them and are still just waiting to see what God has in store for us and where we will be living. We are not planning to renew our contract with this agent in a couple of weeks when it comes up. We may put it on a free for sale by owner sites and see what happens.

I hope to update again soon! I'm still getting the hang of this blogging thing...
