Kelsey had her 2nd gymnastics meet on Saturday. This time it was in Davidson Oklahoma at the high school. It was supposed to be last Saturday but with the bad weather, the gym had no electricity! She did a floor routine and did really great! She got 2nd place! We are so proud of her. I told her that I would buy her a new gymnastics outfit since she was competing, but she decided that she wanted a Hermit Crab instead. So, after the meet we had a Mommy/Daughter day planned of the craft show, mall, lunch & some shopping in Wichita Falls. We found her a crab at the mall. She did not have alot to choose from since they stopped selling them at Coach House Gifts, but found a really cute one that was red and has yellow & lime green hearts on it. She named her "Hailey". She loves her so much! She is so proud of Hailey, but not near as much as I am of her! (Our shirts say "Bounders Invitational 2009". Bounders is the name of her gymnastics team!)
How it all started...........
On March 7, 1997 Heath and I met in Vernon. Once we met, we knew we were meant to be together. On August 29, 1997, we were married. After being married only a month, I had my third surgery for endometrosis. The doctor told us between the endo and issues from me being in a car wreck when I was younger, that I might have a hard time carrying a baby. He recommended that if we wanted to start a family to start as soon as possible. That November, we found out we were expecting a baby. On July 10, 1998 Hayden Travis Cardwell V entered this world at a healthy 8 lbs. 1 oz. On Septemeber 26, 2001 we welcomed Hayden a beautiful little baby sister named Kelsey Elizabeth Cardwell weighing in at 8 lbs. 13 oz. In December of 2006, Heath and I were planning a trip for our 10 year anniversary. However, the good Lord had his own special "surprise" trip planned for us...... a trip to the hospital!!!! 15 days before our 10 year anniversary on August 14, 2007, we welcomed a healthy BIG boy named Andrew Heath Cardwell weighing in at a HEAVY 9lbs. 4oz. With not forgetting our little Yorkie, Mackie........We can finally say we are COMPLETE!!!!
