Some things you might want to know about me and my family....

Well here's a little bit about me and my family. I've been married now for 2 1/2 years we just recently purchased our own home. We have 3 children between us. I've got a son named Curtis that is going to be 11 in December, hes in the 4th grade. I have a stepson named Matthew that is 7 and he lives in Ohio, and hes in the 2nd grade, also I have a stepdaughter named Lacy that lives here in WV and she is 6 and she is in the 1st grade. I also had a son named Chance that was born in 2002 he only lived for 8 days. He was born prematurely actually he was born at 23 1/2 weeks to be exact. I suppose for the most part all of the children get along really well of course they do have their moments were you just wanna ding the bell and say "ok kids go to your separate corners". But, those moments are far and few in between. Thank goodness. So lets see now, as far as my husband and I, hes a certified welder and works night shifts, and I'm an office manager for a local company that goes into the coal mines and repairs their conveyor belts so of course that's a day shift job. So that should answer the question you might have of why me and my husband have no children together huh? Where oh where would we ever find the time too? lol Oh here's another thing you might ask yourself as you reading my blog is why or where did I come up with the name "mirclbabe"? So here you go. Its a name that I have used online for quite some time. In case you haven't already figured it out it stands for miracle baby. It comes from my oldest son Curtis he was born with a heart defect called Hypoplasia Left Heart Syndrome aka HLHS. Hes under went 3 open heart surgeries starting at the age of 6 days old and hes also had 3 heart catheterizations. All of which was done before the age of 4. Over all hes done quite well with this all he's had a few things here and there but for the most part is doing really well. So therefore hes my miracle baby. Well I suppose that's just about all I can think of to tell you right now, I'm sure I'll be adding more and more later on.

Curtis is definitely a miracle babe and a cute one at that. He's probably the one breaking the hearts now!! :)
