Long Lost Blogger

So I was looking at my blog and just realized that it has been almost a year since i last posted. There is absolutely no way that I could go back and update a years worth of stuff. I will update a few of the most important things that happened. We had so much happen this last year good and bad and then God gave us a couple of Miracles as well. Lolli got sick with Ovarian Cancer went through Chemo and quite a few other set backs within that time and is now Cancer FREE!!! She is a true example that there is a God. We got pregnant again about the time Lolli found out she was sick. That brings both joy and sadness at the time because we were scared with all that was going on with Lolli. We didn't know what what was going to happen with Lolli, How Chemo was going to affect her , when were they going to do surgery and was the surgery going to be a success. Then on May 12, Mack Chambers Arnold came into this world at 10 weeks early. It was scary he was really small and the NICU nurses and Dr's tell you to prepare for the worst because you just never know what a preemie is going to require. He weighed 4lbs 2oz, he was tiny to say the least but that was a really good size they say for how early he was. But agian God was on our side, he only had to be on oxygen for just a few hours and then he was breathing all on his own. It's hard during that time because I also have 3 other kids at home that are wondering where mommy is and this baby she had. Mattison was playing softball and Maddox T-ball, I was driving back and forth ever day to go to there games all the while feeling guilty for leaving my baby at the Hospital alone. A little over a month he was in the NICU and then finally got to bring him home. His brothers and sisters were glad to finally see him, for that month that he was in there they never got to see him, kid's were not allowed up in the NICU. So we had few struggles this past year but all things are possible with God on your side.

Maddon had an obsession with Lolli's head and her not having any hair, if she took off her hat Maddon would tell her Put hat back on Lolli. After she put it on him one time it was then a game and he loved it. He then would try and put it on his self and try to brush her hair The kids loved playing around with Lolli and taking pictures wit her hat on. This was the worst part of it all is walking in to see your baby for the first time and seeing all these wires and machines everything was beeping and alarms going off. Its a very overwhelming time. There is no way that I would have made it through all this with out all the awesome nurses and Dr that was in the NICU, they were amazing and they become like family seeing them everyday like that and taking care of your little baby. I miss them all now and still go up and see them and talk to them often as I can.
