MISSING THESE SWEET FACES...

These are the two sweet faces that I am missing SO MUCH these days! Obviously, one is my dear, precious husband, but the other one is Charlee. Some of you may remember her face from last year. For my new blog readers, this is our sweet friends, Brian and Kylie Sanches's little girl. We played with them last year with the Nationals and lived together in Columbus, OH. Brian is the one who actually told the Marlins about Levale (thanks Brian) and we got to live with them for a short bit in New Orleans as well! Brian got called up to the Big Leagues a few days before I left this past time. He is doing so AWESOME, and we are so proud of him! Needless to say, I won't be seeing my sweet Charlee next week, but the Good Lord willing I will before Miss Campbell's arrival! Oh! Also, I got to help out with her BRAND NEW, 2 week old brother, Cole while I was there. He is such an angel. I got lots of practice, and Kylie taught me MANY tricks in a short period of time! We love all four of them so much and praise our Heavenly Father for what He is doing in their lives!Sweet Baby Cole sleeping soundly.
Now for a quick update! Maggie and I went to visit Levale in New Orleans and just got back on Thursday morning. It was SO HARD to leave him. I was a complete basket case ALL THE WAY HOME...5 HOURS!!! I think this was my WELCOME TO PREGNANCY from Campbell present! I always get upset when I leave him, but I am going to see him in a week! I felt so stupid! Levale was so sweet and patient. He said all the right things, and made me feel like I wasn't a complete idiot! My trip was AMAZING! We got to spend so much quality time together, and we both learned so much from Kylie and Brian.
This is what I found one afternoon after lunch. I never doubted the fact that Levale would be a SUPER dad, but it's GREAT to be reminded. I can't wait to see him with Campbell. He loves his girls!
He also got to practice putting a stroller together. He will be a pro when he puts Campbell's together!This is what Maggie did the entire time...she LOVED it! Charlee shared everything with Mags!
These are the cute socks Charlee helped Kylie pick out for Campbell. Charlee was so excited to give them to us. Thank you so much guys! We can't wait to put Campbell in her little onesie and socks so she can be like Charlee! We will be sure to send you a picture!
Although I am VERY EMOTIONAL, I feel great! I am going to have my ultrasound in Opelika tomorrow morning. They will be checking to make sure baby Campbell is on track!!! Say a prayer for us! My mom is going with me since Levale obviously can't. I will be leaving to go back to see Levale on Monday for 3 weeks! I can't wait! It will be so nice to be together for an extended period of time! Please continue praying for him. He is doing great, but it is extremely hard on him to be away from us (me and Campbell). He is very protective these days!!! Also, baseball is just so up and down...it can be very stressful at times! I will try to post in the next few days on how our ultrasound goes!!!
