Some catch up pics

 Here are some pictures of stuff we've done this fall. We found this great place called Cedar Preserve. It is $3 to get in! It has a great picninc are, 10 miles of hiking trails and a butterfly garden. Will definitely be going back. This is the trail we hiked. With a stroller. .5 miles. KILLER.
 Thank goodness we had lots of many chocolate bars to keep us happy.
 Hiking in Texas. Yep.
 Rare selfie. Usie? Whatever.
 If you look closely in the top of the tree you can see the hawk that was sitting there as we passed by on an evening walk.
 98 degrees mid Oct. Bleh. It's FINALLY feeling much more fallish 'round here.
 On bench at Cedar Preserve. Sp
 Spider we saw that had babies on it's back...or as Kelsay calls it "a 'poder". 😂

 Feeding ducks and swans by library
 Kelsay preferred eating the duck food herself.
 Maddy got new KAFOs.
 The fair! They had a lot of new stuff this year. This is the children"s board walk.




 Maddy won a bear in a free game. The guy running the booth let her play free.
 Cotton Candy!
 Instead of the bird show they had wild west pet palooza. They had dogs, cats and birds trained to do all kinds of tricks. I kept thinking how much Brittany would love this show. It was way better than the dog show they have every year.
 We rode the ferris wheel. Kelsay hated it and Maddy loved it.

 Corn dogs!
Aaron and I got to go watch  a Rangers game without kids. Epic!

Getaway to Ticks Bend....I Mean Beavers Bend State Park

 Back in April, we decided we needed to do a short family getaway after the semester was over. The last time we'd been on vacation just to vacation (not going to see family in CO) was when we went to San Antonio when Maddy was 3 months old. We found Beavers Bend State Park close to Broken Bow, OK and decided to go there. We booked a cabin in the state park and eagerly awaited the day we could take off for our getaway. We left on Sunday afternoon and stayed through Tuesday afternoon. It was short, but so fun and relaxing. We had no computer and no cell phones while we were up there. We just got to enjoy being around each other and the beautiful scenery.  We built a fire and roasted some marshmallows. Also popped some jiffy pop. Aaron had never done one of those before.  This is a 100 year old cabin they had at the visitor center. I like the mud chinking ( I think that's what it's called). A couple named Comma and Mabel lived in the cabin when the CCC was building the

Another Sonogram

We went to the high risk pregnancy doc today for another sonogram. This time he could see all four chambers of the heart, the pulmonary valve, etc. In his words it looked "dramatically better". He feels there is still some slight compression on the heart and that we need to continue watching it. As of now he cannot see anything that is causing it and the MRI did not see anything either. He also felt that the hands were okay. They are not clenched fists at least as he first thought, meaning that the fingers aren't overlapping each other. Her hands are still in fists and she won't open them but he said he has had other babies that have not opened their fist in the sonogram but the hands have been normal at birth, so we still have a lot of hope for those little hands. He was able to get a better look at the face today, no cleft palate, so that is a huge blessing. The feet are still concerning. They are definitely clubbed but she is also not moving them. She is moving her

One Year Ago Today

One year ago today we found out we were having a little girl. One year ago today, the OB called us into his office and told us that Maddy was not going to survive. One year ago today God heard the prayers of many friends and family and he started working a miracle. One year ago today I thought I would never see my precious little girl alive. One year ago today I was so shocked I didn't and couldn't feel anything but disbelief. One year ago today, God started planning that today a little girl named Madeline Mae Fletcher would be by my side as I write this, talking and playing with her stuffed cow that Aunt Tammy gave her. One year ago today God set out to prove that he is faithful and he hears his people's prayers and that he still does miracles. Today is bittersweet because one year ago today our dreams and plans we had for our new life with our baby girl were destroyed. But one year ago today God started making a new plan to give us a different dream and a different plan.
