Quick Update

Well, it's almost here...the end of UPT. Zed is flying two flights today and then has his final flight tomorrow. Please keep him in your prayers that he may be safe, calm, and remember everything he needs to. He also got his assignment list. From the list he has to rank all the planes. He will then be ranked against his classmates and they will hand out the planes. He finds out 1 Aug at 5:30!

Ana is doing great! She has put on over 2lbs and grown over an inch. She loves to eat.

Mia is growing up so fast now that Ana is here. When Ana cries Mia runs to her and pats her feet or gives her a pacifier or bottle (even if its empty). She is getting more gentle with her every day, I am so proud of her.

I'm doing pretty well. I'm still trying to catch up on sleep, but I know that won't happen until after all kids are out of the house, and then maybe not even then. My doctor has cleared me to start working out, which I'm excited for. I have my PT test in December.

Next update will come once we know where Zed is going next.

Lets Try Again

I have started and stopped this blog many times and often its because life is exciting and I want to share and then life gets boring and I find I have nothing to write about. It's been almost 3mo since I last wrote and as with every restart life has been quite exciting.

So how am I going to fix this constant start and stop? Well, one thing that will help is life will be very exciting for the next few months. I'm also going to put a reminder in my phone set for once a month to do a blog update.

Currently I'm sitting on our couch with Mia in one arm and Ana in the other and am so blessed for these two little girls Heavenly Father has placed in our lives.

Anaston (Ana) Brielle Davies joined our family at 6:53am on July 1st. The labor was relatively quick and so was the delivery. When we arrived at the hospital I was already dilated to 8cm. She is such a sweet baby and cries when she's hungry or has a dirty diaper.

Mia loves her little sister...loves her to death. She hasn't quite figured out how to be gentle, but loves to gives kisses and hugs, more like squeezes. For a 17mo old she is very aware of Ana and goes to her each time she cries. The only time jealously rears its head are the few times Ana is using a bottle. Mia's vocabulary is growing. She almost always says thank you (an uh) or thanks (thas). Her funniest new word is giddy up (ga da) complete with hand motions, no denying she's a Davies now.

Zed is doing great. He has 7 total flights to go before he's finished pilot training. Either this week or next he will get the list of planes and bases he can choose from. Once he turns in his #1-#20 based on what he's offered he will be ranked against his classmates and his leadership will create the assignments. Aug 1st we will find out which plane and base he gets. Currently he's hoping to get a C5 or KC10.

We have another pseudo member of our family. My sister has started her freshman year at Mississippi State University, she's currently taking summer biology. It's nice to have her close for those time Zed and I need a sitter and in case she ever needs a big sister. So far she's made a lot of friends, to include members of the football team.

I'm almost 2wks through my 6wks of maternity leave. I'm enjoying the time with my girls, but at times find it hard to stay occupied. I'm feeling great and this delivery went a lot better than Mia's. I'm excites to see where Zed will be going next and will start working to get myself and the girls there as soon as we know. As of right now it looks like us ladies will be staying in Mississippi until early spring 2015 and then will join Zed wherever he is.

We hope you all are doing well and appreciate all the love, support, and congratulations.
