Ready for LSU!

The weather was 80 degrees today and Kaegan said he was cold. I told him to change out of his school uniform and to put on something comfortable for our pizza game night. This is what he came up with. I guess he was cold.

Not to mention and tired!!

Sausage on a stick

After the soccer game we then went to Evangel's footbal game. Evangel lost but Kaegan got to eat sausage on a stick. He loved it!!!

First Game!

Thank goodness I took these few shots because Lil'Man did not play much this game. He froze up and did not like the other team trying to take the ball away. An airplane flew over to land at the nearby airport and Kaegan was then done with the game. Maybe next Saturday will be better. The team did win though!

The Green Machines

It's that time of the year, SOCCER!!!!! This is Kaegans first practice. He is so excited that he is on a team and has his own jersey. So Cool!!!

Flying a turtle kite

Kaegan and I visited our old subdivision in Haughton. We took his kite because it was a beautiful windy day. He loved flying his kite.

Day at the Park

These are at AC Steere Park. He loves this park. Can you tell he picked out his clothes.

Our BIG Boy!

Well, Kaegan has really grown up over the last 4 weeks. He is so excited about being the Big Brother that we decided to start allowing him to do things on his own while also forcing him to do others. For example, I let him get his own cup out of the cabinets and get his own ice and pour his own drink. Yes, it is sometimes messy but he loves that he can do it. He helps make his lunch for school and has started cleaning the dishes and putting up the clean dishes in the dishwasher. Like I said, He loves it. Well, there are a few things that we have began to enforce around the Kent household as well. For the past 2 1/2 years I have layed next to Kaegan every night until he was completely asleep. If I snuck out he woke up and freaked. Shortly after I would sneak out he would of course sneak right into our room around 1:00 a.m.ish. This week, things have changed. He has been watching a cartoon in his room, I will check on him every two minutes and finally he will fall asleep. This is such a huge thing for him. We are sooooo proud! This morning I actually had to go into to his room to wake him up. He did not even sneak into our room last night. It was great.

Another new big thing is he can wipe himself and has not cried at school all week!!!!! I guess my Lil'Man is all grown up. Time for me to stop babying him and let him be the Big Brother he is going to be. I am so proud of my angel.

Heartbeat 138

We heard the heartbeat again!!! What an amazing moment. I finally stopped bleeding on Monday and on Tuesday I began to feel normal again. I told Marty that I was actually nervous about today's appointment because I felt so good and did not feel pregnant. I was relieved when I saw the heartbeating. We got new pictures too. The baby is growing and all looks good. If the pregnancy continues like this I will be extremely grateful.

Kaegan has been an angel this week. Making sure I drink only water, putting my feet under a pillow when I rest and telling me to sit down. He is going to be a great big brother.

We are so blessed. Kaegan was and will always be our first miracle. This little angel within me is Kaegan's little miracle. He has prayed for over a year and a half for his baby brother or sister. When he first began praying for them we questioned if he had a sibling in the orphanage or foster home he was in. Of course we will never know. When we ask him he says he doesn't remember. I know that Kaegan prayed for this child and that God has answered his prayer. I am honored that God has chosen me to carry this miracle and for the incredible faith lesson this has taught and will continue to teach our little 5 year old. Our God is amazing and our Kaegan knows it.

The day we learned of the pregnancy Kaegan road home in the truck with Marty. Kaegan was sitting in the back seat and told Marty, "Daddy, I prayed for my Brother and Sister and God gave me one. God is so AWESOME!!" Marty said he will never forget Kaegans facial expressions and true excitement for the baby. What a great moment for the two of them.

GOD IS SO GOOD!
