January 2009

Well this month started off very rocky.....Papa Sanchez was not doing very well and got admitted to the hospital on a Thursday afternoon, in a room Thursday night and rushed down to NICU at 11:00 pm. Phone call to report to hospital, picked up Mama Sanchez, dropped Averi off at Nonnie's and off to the the hospital we went. We all went home, Lita and I headed back up to the the hospital at 3:30 am after getting a shower and waited to see what was next. Well we were not expecting the news that was next.....Papa had went down hill from there. Nurse came and got us around 5:30 am Friday morning needing to get in tough with Brad. Telephoned Brad because Papa needed to be placed on a ventilator or he was not going to make it. He stated on the ventilator until Tuesday mid day and returned to a room Friday afternoon. He stated in the hospital for several days after that, now he is home and doing well considering what he was been through. I must say that I saw Gods amazing works with Mr. Johnnie.


We went back and forth with having Averi's birthday party as it was scheduled. We ended up having it and having other news to go along with it......... Averi had a great time at her 1st Birthday Party, she opened the presents like a pro...

Anyone want to guess what this present is??

Well I will not make you wait any longer......

I'M A BIG SISTER SHIRT

Something told me on Saturday morning, the morning of Averi's Party to do a Pregnancy Test, in my mind I was thinking a "Pregnancy Test for WHAT?" Well let me just tell you sometimes God is talking to you and you are doing everything not to listen. Later that morning 10:37am on the dot....I was on the phone with Candice and I did the test...not telling her anything. Well when the test came back PREGNANT....you would have thought that someone had hurt themselves....I started screaming and screaming....now take into consideration that my dad and brother are outside cooking...so I finally settled down and Candice asked me if everything was okay and where was Averi and I said it has nothing to do with ANYONE....I AM PREGNANT...not even realizing what I had just done or what I had just said. She said, "WHAT" I responded, "NOTHING" She stated, "How do you know" and I told her that I had just done a test because something told me that I needed to do it..... Well I telephoned Brad asking him to come and talk with me once he got home. Well he returned home and come into the bathroom and I told him that I need to show him something and there was no tricks or games that was being played. I showed him the test and he looked and me, looked at the test, looked at me, looked at the test, and then stated, "Are you serious?" I told him, "Do you think I can play a game with this." Well we sent Candice on a wild goose run.....she went and picked up the Big Girl Shirt and also got another test for me to do. No one knew except the three of us. So when Averi started to open up the present everyone looked at the shirt and there were oohs and oz's..... (Honestly I don't know what people were thinking seeing what they saw). It took several minutes for them to figure out what was going on. And then Nonnie screamed, "SHE PREGNANT" Granddad and Poppie looked at each other and Poppie stated to Granddad, "I think that Kelli is pregnant, Granddad responded, "Who's Pregnant. Needless to say it was a HUGE SHOCK to everyone. God has been doing alot of work in Brad and I's life. One thing that I know that he is trying to teach us is, Having a little more faith in him. As many of you know, Gods timing is always perfect even though its may not seem that way for us.
