Help from Popsy and Lolo!

My goodness what an awful turn of events on Friday! I ended up getting the flu too, and it was awful! I am just now finally starting to feel like myself! Even though we have been so anxious for Lincoln to arrive, it was really better that he had not come with all the sickness floating around at the Brown house! Thank goodness God has a greater plan, even if we don't always understand it.

Luckily my parents were already planning on coming up to Athens for work, so they were here to help! Mom had a conference to attend, but in between would come over to the house to visit and help out! Dad helped Philip with the boys, grocery shopped, and cooked up a storm all weekend! The sad part was that my Aunt Joan had also come to town to attend the conference with mom, but not only did she not have a baby to snuggle, but I felt like death the entire time and really couldn't do anything!

On Saturday, Philip and Dad took the boys up to the mountains so I could have the entire day just to rest by myself. They had so much fun getting to see snow and go hiking!

He was so proud of himself on this snow pile!

We are certainly thankful they were here, and now that I'm on the mend, we would love for our little Linc to come on soon!
