Happy Birthday Addison and Adam!










Well it's antoher birthday. My is chalk full of dates that are so important. Last weekend we celebrated Adam's 29th birthday (one more till old age) and Adam's moms' birthday. Tomorrow will be my big babies birthday. SHE IS THREE. I certainly can't explain how time flies by. It feels like I just had her. I am so proud of her. She makes me smile everyday. She is learning her letters, sounds, making words, and all sorts of other things that makes a teacher (like her mommy) proud. She will be going with me to Pre-K this summer as I get our new Kindergarteners ready for school. I know she will get even "bigger" over the summer. Last weekend we had her birthday party. We were joined with all of our friends and family, minus a few.....the Kinnamons, the Garnetts, the Cabantacs, and the Estes. We missed ya'll! We still had a great time. Fun with a new bouncy house, presents, a mermaid cake, balloons, and food. We had the best time. Thank you to all the people that came and made it a special day for our family.We love you!

Just catching up on other things......

Aniston is nine months old...and crawling all over the place. School is offically out for the summer and I can't be more excited! I spent all day yesterday and today cleaning out my old room. I will be embarking on a new adventure next year..FIRST GRADE! I'm looking forward to working with some amazing people, but also sad to leave some behind. I am so thankful to have a great job and do something that I love. There is nothing like the feeling of waving "bye" to a whole bunch of kids on a school bus the last day of school. It was GREAT!

Now we are off for a little vacay time. The fam is headed to the beach for 8 days...can't wait. There's packing for two children and a husband, not to mention me. I am amazed that it can even be done. Off for now....

Sick, Sick and More Sick


The last week has been super hard for the McGhee Family. Where do I begin? Last weekend my mom and I decided (on a whim) that we would take a quick trip to the beach. We got there and were having a blast, that is until Aniston got a fever. She had been running one for a couple of days, but just 99.1. We just thought it was teething, I mean it was only one degree over normal. Well it just keep progressing. We called the after hours nurse, she said it was most likely a "fever virus" since she had no other symptoms. So, Sunday morning we drove home and by the time we got home her fever was 103.4. We took her in to see the fine doctor at the Ped Clinic. They checked her over, and couldn't find anything, that is, until they checked her urine. She had a kidney infection. Doctor thinks she may have what's called Urinary Reflux. Where the bladder draws in urine when after using the bathroom. She will have tests run on May 5th to see what may be going on. She is doing well now, her infection is gone. But they will still need to do a Cat Scan and a urinary ultrasound. Please pray for her safety and our soundness to help her when she is in need.


Now on the the other one. Friday on the way to school, Addison says "Mommy, I don't want these snacks."...I look behind me, and there she blows.....literally. She puked everywhere. That is the moment when you know...I am a mother, I can handle anything. You just pick up the pieces, find a way to work around it. I did a U-turn in the road and headed back home. She has a "fever virus" now. What are the chances right? Well, shes doing well too. It's just Addison is the type of child that throws up when shes sick, no matter if its ears, throat, fever, stomach..whatever, she's throwing up.


I'm not sure what our household holds for us next. We put our house up for sale Monday. (It's been a busy week). Please pray that God will show us the right plan for us. We have 18 days of school left. I have NO idea what grade I will teach next year, it could be kindergarten again, could be first, second, or third. NO IDEA!!! It's killing me. I know God has my best interest in mind. Keep our family in your thoughts and prayers....until next time...peace.
