So we are finally to Memphis, attempting to get settled. We are busy unpacking boxes, finding a place for everything and recuperating from the past two weeks. Here are a few tidbits, until I have time to write in more detail.....
1. We were in the car for approximately 30 hours. With 2 children that is a ridiculous amount of time. It doesn't really matter how good your children are..... and our children are excellent travelers.
2. Tumbleweeds do not cross the street one by one. They cross in what we have determined are herds. You can't miss them and some of them are the size of small cars.
3. We arrived in Memphis, were here for about one hour, and then spent the next 4 days in the hospital. Poor Aleece was quite sick when we arrived, she was having a hard time breathing, and did not look well at all. They believe she has asthma, which leads me to point 4.
4. Asthma medication is ridiculously priced. I would pay a million dollars to know my children were healthy, but seriously, it can not cost THAT much to make it.
5. Aleece is an excellent patient. The poor girl has veins like her mama, and they never could just stick her once. She has so many bruises on her poor arms, hands and feet.
6. Madelaine is more curious than ever. While in our "hospital suite", she learned how to open the door, and would make a break for it any chance she got! I can't believe she will be one on Friday! Where does the time go!
7. We are currently living in what we hope is a safe area outside of Memphis. We love the home we are living in, and hope this brings us a little stability, for a while at least! Any and all visitors are welcome!
and
8. We miss our family terribly. Sunday dinners just aren't the same with only 4 of us instead of 9! We love you guys!
Thank you to everyone who offered their love and support! We don't know what we would do without you. More to follow!
I will post some pictures as soon as 0ur new place looks presentable! :) Give me a little more time to put everything into it's place! It won't be long, I promise!!!

What would life be without lots of adventures! I am so glad Leecy is feeling better and you are getting settled. A year ago we were playing the baby waiting game...now Lainey's turning one. Boy I miss you guys.
I am so glad you guys are getting settled in, and it sounds like you guys had quite the adventure. They BELIEVE it is asthma? So you are saying they aren't sure? Well I hope she keeps getting better and hopefully the rest of the move in goes well.
They BELIEVE it is asthma, because if they actually confirm it, it creates major insurance issues. So they pretty much said, at this point, they were not going to officially diagnose her with it.
