So I looked back and the last time I wrote a blog was one year ago today! How do I never have time to write on here anymore? LOL I'm a mommy that's why! This time last year I was talking about celebrating Derek's 1st birthday and now we've just celebrated his 2nd birthday... 
April came & moved out of our house we've been in for 5 years the house we met God in, the house we were blessed with Derek in, the house we found out we were having Dylan in. We lost it to foreclosure if you're wondering why we moved. We moved into my parents house April 19th. May 13 we welcomed Dylan Laken Hubble to the world 7lbs 15 oz 18 1/2" long...
This is a picture of my precious baby with his IV & Oxygen.
July we went on a family vacation to Orange Beach, Alabama.
In August Derek turned 2 & Dylan turned 3 months old... Thank you God for the blessings in our life. I hope to repost again soon hopefully won't be another year!
Derek age 2
This has been the best & worst year of my life... let me explain. September 19th 2010, Danny & I went to Destin, Florida without Derek for a company trip we had fun and while we were there we found out we were expecting another baby! I became part of a pregnancy study at Vanderbilt University, with it they wanted to give me a free early ultrasound... of course I wanted to see this precious gift from God and (wow just got hit with a flood of emotions thinking back to that day) they could see the baby I was suppose to be 7 weeks along but the baby measured 5 weeks and they couldn't find a heartbeat. I was at this appointment by myself because Danny was stuck on a call, I couldn't breathe I walked as quickly as possible to my car & felt like I was going to die. I cried to God "Please God let them be wrong please God don't take this baby from me, please God don't do this to me." I met Danny in a parking lot not too far from the doctor's office because I couldn't see to drive, I was crying so hard. We prayed together he hugged me, loved me & reassured me that God has a bigger plan for us & if we are meant to have this baby we will. I called my doctor and set up an appointment and said I have to have another ultrasound ASAP, I waited almost a week to go in for an ultrasound and Danny again couldn't go with me but my mom did (she said she wasn't going to let me go alone this time). I held my breathe as the ultrasound tech started... Praise the Lord there it was BUMP BUMP BUMP the most beautiful sight I've ever seen.
January came & we found out it was going to be another boy! Dylan Laken Hubble would be born in May 2011. February started with us celebrating my 31st birthday then Danny & I attended our church's annual marriage retreat, it's amazing how God works he knew to prepare us for what was yet to come by teaching us during this retreat that we need to rely on each other & HIM & to lean on one another in times of struggles. The message that weekend was LOUD & CLEAR! A little later that month a few things happend that showed us we need to come clean with one another & not just come clean but FORGIVE! In normal everyday (non Christ centered marriages) some of the things that happened in the next few weeks, months would have been grounds for divorce but we were able to forgive each other because God forgives us of our sins, we had both done things to one another & both needed forgiving. I'm not going to go into detail as to what happened because quiet frankly it's personal for one and it's in the past now so no need to drag it back up.
April came & moved out of our house we've been in for 5 years the house we met God in, the house we were blessed with Derek in, the house we found out we were having Dylan in.

About an hour after he was born they came in & said we need to take him to the nursery that he was struggling to breathe, at first I didn't know what was going on. His oxygen levels kept dropping & he wouldn't latch after the very first time he nursed within his 1st hour of birth. They ended up having to hook him up to oxygen & an iv... 
This is a picture of my precious baby with his IV & Oxygen.
We looked to God for comfort & support we wanted him to be ok we wanted to be able to hold him & show him that we were there for him we wanted to be his mommy & daddy. I was so thankful for the people who prayed for him & us. He had to spend the entire night in the nursery & couldn't come to my room, I was able to go see him & even hold him for a few minutes. Big brother came to visit but couldn't see him in person :(. The next day he was able to come off of the oxygen but still had to be on the IV and had to have his oxygen levels monitored all day long. He also got to meet his big brother for the first time...
Come to find out Dylan had the cord wrapped around his head & was his shoulder was stuck & they called his condition "transition" within 24 hours he was fine. He also had jaundice and had to be placed under the lights. 
I keep saying he just wanted us to think that he was just as much a miracle from God as his brother but what he doesn't know is I already thought that. :) I am so thankful for the blessings God has given me, I've prayed for years to become a mommy and now I have 2 beautiful boys that make every day of my life even better than the last.
