Madison's 3 year Angelversary

Today is 3 years that Madison joined her brother & sister in Heaven. I think about her all the time. I wonder if Aubrey acts like her or if they would look alike. I wonder if she would love music like Aubrey or love to draw like Shelby.


This is the only picture I have of my mom with me & my daughter. Mady was such a feisty little 10 oz baby. She was the most active in my tummy while I was pregnant with the triplets.



Mady fought hard and went through a long battle including heart surgery in the 3 days she lived.

Mommy & Daddy will love you forever Mady !! We miss you everyday !!

Forever with us ..........

After all the babies passed away Mike & I decided to get a tattoo in memory of them. Mike got his done the day before their funeral and I love it. I love the angel wings and I love how the boy angel is passing a halo to the girl angel which is how I pictured Conner doing to Madison. I love seeing their names and the days they went to heaven.

I wasn't sure how I wanted to do my tattoo so I didn't get mine until after Aubrey was born. I decided to get the 2 identical flowersto honor Logan-Makenna & Madison since they were identical babies and then I got a dragon fly to honor Conner. Aubrey has always been my little ladybug so I got that to honor her with her siblings because I feel like she was our blessing after they went to heaven.

Conner's 3 year Angelversary

3 years ago today our little Conner Robert Joseph Koval went to be with Jesus in heaven. Although I miss him greatly I know he watches over our family.

Mommy loves you forever Conner !!!

You will always be Daddy's little man sweet baby boy !!!

Happy Birthday Babies !!!

Little Children

Little Children so full of life
So many plans so little time
Such tiny hearts, such tiny bodies
You made such an impact on so many lives
As we held you when you passed,
our hearts filled with sorrow like an hour glass
We will not stay sad, for you deserve better than that
You will be missed and that you can bet
But little children .... we have no regrets !!!


~love~ Mommy & Daddy

This was the poem Mike wrote for the programs at the babies funeral. I thought it was beatiful and wanted to share it .............

Today Conner, Madison & Logan-Makenna would have turned 3 !! I can't believe it !! This morning Mike decided to stay home with me cause he knew it was going to be a difficult day. We got the girls to school and then went to the cementary to put balloons on their grave. It seems like everytime I go there are new babies around them. It is so sad to know those parents are hurting like us. The pain never goes away. When we had the babies funeral we played Casting Crowns " Praise you in this storm" and that song has always had special meaning to us. In fact Shelby calls it "Maddy & Conner's song". This morning when I went to drop Shelby off I turned on the car and that song was on !! After we left the cementary we went to Denny's to have breakfast. Mike said the prayer before we ate and thanked God for all the blessings and told him thanks for giving us the little time we had with Maddy & Conner and right after he said AMEN that same song came on over the speakers in the restraunt. It was like God was letting us know that he has our babies and they are doing fine with him. Mike & I both got teary eyed listening to it. God is so amazing and we are truly blessed !!!

Astros Game .........

Mike & I went on a double date to the Astros game with our friends Jonathan & Crystal on September 11th. It was the 1st time that the Astros actually won a game we were at. They beat the Pirates 9-1. Crystal & I watched most of the game but then the photobug bit us so we were off to take pictures. These are just a few from that night. Sorry for the short post but it has been a busy week. ....................

I love this man !!

I honestly have the best husband in the entire world !! This man is my rock. He has stood by my side through good and bad times and the many mood swings in between. I know I don't tell him enough how much he truly means to me and how much I appericate him ALWAYS being there for me.

Michael,

I love you more than words can express. You are my soul mate and my total lobster. I adore you and thank you so much for ALWAYS being there when I need you. Thank you for making me laugh when I'm being such a grouch and never taking me or my crazy attitude to heart. You are an amazing man and I love you so very much !!

Love,

Coley

Donnie Married ????

My youngest brother Donnie is in the Army. He is currently stationed in Afgastian ( spelled wrong I'm sure) . He is home on a 2 week leave and suprised us with news that he is getting married !! Yes my baby brother who I can't imagine being older than 3 is going to be someone's husband !! I know that he's 21 and has been serving in our military for 3 years but it doesn't seem like he is old enough to get married. September 6, 2009 he will marry Kristen in Las Vegas. I'm so happy for them and I hope they have a wonderful marriage.

Congratulations and I love you guys !!!

Aubrey's a big girl now !!

Yesterday when I picked her up from daycare her teacher told me she went pee pee in the potty. I was so excited and proud of her. When we got home she said "Poo poo Mommy ! " so I asked her if she needed to go potty and she said yes so we ran to my bathroom and put on the toliet and she POOPED !! Yeah Aubrey !! The days of no diapers are coming soon !!
