Team Bills

Sweet Addilyn Sloan turned 6 months old this month. She is so much fun. Here's what she's doing: She sticks her tongue out and blows. She lays on her tummy and rolls around. She LOVES for someone to talk to her, especially her sister. She is sitting up with support. She eats and sleeps really well. Her well visit stats...16.2 lbs and 28 1/2 inches long. She has the sweetest smile and melts our hearts everytime we look at her. What a blessing our girls are!!! Keatyn and Addilyn in there October attire! A very large praise...Stephen was healthy and was able to do a wedding this past weekend. He's back to his normal self...whatever normal is these days!! And sweet colorful Keatyn...our friends, the Cofield's are in the process of adopting and have made these great shirts for support. We bought me and Keatyn one and Jana had asked that I send her some pictures of us wearing them. This was just one of the photos from the photo shoot...too funny that Keatyn!!! Check ...

I'm not one to get sick on things like this, so this is why I absolutely love the feeling. However, when you walk through the turnstall of the rollercoaster called "LIFE", I don't always get the same feelings. One thing about a themepark rollercoaster is that you pretty much know what the next drop will look like and you know about the curves and loops and twists. But the reality of LIFE is that we don't know, we don't know when we'll hit a steep hill, we don't know when a twist or a loop is coming and we certainly don't know how this rollercoaster is going to make us feel. Today the rollercoaster that my family is on is one that has really taken us for a crazy ride.
