something new

Well, here it goes... I am not much of a writer but after reading other blogs by other ladies I feel this might be a small way to help my heart continue to heal. I don't know that I will have much to say but I know some people, who have not been through this journey with us, are curious as to what happened with our little Aimee. Also, it will be a place for me to post pictures so you all can see her (if I can figure out how to do that)!

HELP! Triple Chocolate Chunk Muffins, and they can be GF!

no, I am not a photographer... I guess I should pin that site on how to take pictures of food! :) Pinterest is one of the most addicting sites I think I have EVER come across!  I LOVE all the ideas I can get from it but found I spent a LOT of time on it.  I was inspired by a friend that told me she has to "earn" her time on it.  So, I thought that would be a great thing for me to do too.  I have to "earn" my time on it by doing at least 2 pins a week!  I was excited about Valentine's Day and used a couple of ideas making our breakfast look like this: Here Lucy is showing you her heart shaped bacon! And I made this for dessert that night.  It was GREAT!   Butterfinger Pie  Anyway, that is NOT what this post is about.  A few days ago we had some friends coming over for lunch and I wanted to make a good "healthier" dessert so I tried to make this : Triple Chocolate Chunk Muffin I was so excited that they were hea...

"Mommy, Where's Baby Aimee?"

Image
The question came unexpectedly on a drive home from making Christmas cookies at Lucy's Aunt Noonie's house. (Yes, it has been awhile since I have written).  So shocked by the question I asked her what she said to be sure I heard her correctly. With more emphasis this time, "Mommy, where is your baby Aimee?" I thought hard about what my response would and could and should be.  Lucy knows it, "she's in heaven with Jesus."  We had talked about it often, both before Aimee was born, to prepare her for when we came home without a baby, and in the many talks since we have been home.  She often tells me how she wants to go to heaven to see baby Aimee and Jesus.  "Not until it's your turn."  I tell her.  "Let's not rush it!" This time it was as if she was asking for more, as if she was really trying to understand why Aimee didn't come home with us.  So, we talked as best we could in the car about her 'ouchie' heart and ...

Remembrance Day 2012

Image
As if we could ever or would ever forget.  Once again it is Infant Loss Remembrance Day.  I don't have much or anything profound to say.  Just taking time to remember holding my precious girl for the few hours we got to have her.  As I feel this new little one growing inside of me and moving around and around I remember how hard little Aimee could kick and how social she was.  She would start moving even more when others would touch my belly!  It was almost as if she knew it would be her only chance to communicate with most of them on this earth.  I remember seeing her eyes open and close during her last ultrasound, savoring the moment with tears in my eyes knowing that it would probably be the only time we ever saw her do that, and it was.   What a precious moment to have been able to see and one I will treasure always. We love you Aimee and can't wait to be with you someday!! Aimee's birth day.
