Talk about a whirlwind around our lives!!! Went to Waldo on Mother's Day weekend to pack house and have movers get majority of furniture. Saw all kids but Jon. Emily came and spent the weekend with us there and saw Rachel for a short while. Went to see Jenny's new house. Saw David who came to get Papa's trailer.
Movers were so fast in loading the U-Haul that they actually loaded some of Jenny's boxes, so we are taking them back this weekend when we go to clean. We are hoping to have the house on the market within the next 2 weeks..Lord willing. Got back to Charlotte on Sunday and movers came Monday afternoon. They unloaded just as quick as they loaded. We finally just pointed and directed if something went upstairs or downstairs...now I have the task of moving into rooms it belongs in and unpacking....yuk.
But in the middle of all of this, Rachel calls me Friday? night and says something doesn't feel right and that she is cramping. I told her to call her OB and get checked out. She later calls me and says that she has been admitted for premature labor...My heart sank!!!! 26 weeks....but being mom, I'm trying to stay upbeat and tell her that everything will be fine. After several different drugs and total bed rest, the contractions stop and she stops dilating. Prayers answered. Sunday night she calls and says that things have escalated and that she is in a labor room and they have NICU on alert. Our hearts sank again...Jim and I went to bed but just waited for the call...at 12:51 Cory calls us to inform us that Camden is here!!! and bless his little heart...he is strong and stubborn just like the rest of the Holcombs. He's small and needs help to finish "baking" as his gpa says but he is doing fantastic. He even sleeps like his mommy and grandpa....mouth open and arms up. His weight is up to 2lbs 6oz..yea!!!! This little boy also has some great birthday buddies rooting for him...Aunt Kate, Aunt Punkie and Aunt JoAnn....that’s some powerful praying forces.
I faith that this baby will be home and running his mommy ragged before long.
