Easter Weekend

I hope everyone had a good Easter. We had a great weekend. On Saturday, I went to our anual Uncle Sydney's (family) picnic. If you saw me this weekend, you know that I got burnt very badly at the picnic but it was good to see family members that I haven't seen in a long time. On Saturday night, Matt and I went to Mamaw and Papaw's house for supper. We had fun watching Abby, Meredith, and Sydney! Next Easter will be a little more busy with our baby AND Jenny's baby. My cousin, Jenny, called me Thursday night to tell me that she is expecting her second child on October 1st. WOW....our family is growing FAST!

On Easter, Matt and I got up and went to Sunday School and Church. Afterwards, we went to Matt's parents house to eat lunch. We had a great time. While we were eating, Anna Grace kept nodding off while eating her lunch. I gladly volunteered to hold her while she took her nap. There is nothing more peaceful than watching a baby sleep. We left Matt's parents and went straight to the hospital BECAUSE Michelle wanted to take another look at the baby on the ultrasound machine. She is determined to figure out the sex of the baby. Susan also met us up there to take a look. Well....we still don't know what we are having which is okay. I was just very thankful to see the baby's heartbeat and that the baby was moving. Matt and I left the hospital and went home to eat supper and watch Enchanted. Matt is such a sport to watch such a girly movie.

I do have to say...I really am thinking the baby might be a girl! I don't know why but holding Anna Grace and watching Enchanted just made me feel like it might be a girl! We will see on Friday!!!

It was a busy weekend!

I know you are so thankful to have wise friends like Michelle who are correctly predicting that you are having a boy. Friends like that are rare-keep them! M-J; March 24, 2008 at 3:01 PM

The Woodards

My name is Garson Woodard. I'm a wife to Matt. He is the most incredible husband a girl could ask for. We met in Kindergarten at Cedar Creek (the school we attended for 13 years). Matt and I started dating our Jr. year in high school and dated for 6 years. We got married on June 26, 2004. I am so thankful that God brought us together! I am a mother to Trigger, Campbell, and Larkin. We worked hard to have all of them. After 2 miscarriages, two years after trying to get pregnant, a 2 week hospital stay, and a short (didn't seem short at the time) NICU stay, we brought home our first precious miracle: Trigger! He was born on July 29, 2008. Trigger's completely spoiled rotten! He is full of personality and definitely shows some of the same tenacity that his namesake had!

With our second child, Campbell, we made it to 38 weeks. He was born on June 3, 2010. He still had to stay in the NICU for 5 days for breathing issues. Campbell is absolutely precious..shy but such a little clown. I can't wait to watch our two boys which are 22 months apart) grow up together. I know they are going to fight constantly but be BEST of friends at the same time!

I just thought my boys were our miracles...and they are...but, at the end of May 2011, Matt and I found out that we were expecting the biggest surprise of our life. We were having baby #3 after being told we could never get pregnant on our own. AND, to add to the excitement, we were having a GIRL. After dealing with my medical issues, a two vessel cord, and IUGR, Larkin was born on January 6, 2012. She came here ruling the roost and I am sure that is not going to change anytime soon.

After what seemed like forever thinking that I would not have any children, God has blessed me with three beautiful babies all within 3.5 years.

After having Campbell, Matt and I decided I would become a stay-at-home mom. In alot of ways it is more difficult than teaching because I am with OUR children all day...and OUR children don't seem to listen like my students would. HOW DOES THAT WORK? Haha! Seriously though, it is the BEST job in the world and I feel very blessed to be able to be home to witness each and every minute of our boys' lives!

I started this blog when we found out we were pregnant with Trigger and have continued to document our crazy lives with a toddler and a baby since I don't have time to scrapbook anymore. Thanks for stopping by and I hope you visit again!
