Well 2012 has come and gone! I am very excited to see what
2013 has in store for the Megows.
I like to do little "recaps" at the end of the year to sum the year up.
God was so faithful and good to us this year and we faithfully walked along side
of Him through it all!
God doesn't promise us that life will be easy or painless; He just promises us that it will be all worth it and that if we draw near to Him that he will always draw near to us.
Recap Time:
January:
My sweet friend, Emily, threw me a baby shower for Olive
It was so so fun having all my friends together, I felt very loved for sure
check out all these preggers at the party shower ;)
Titus had a pretty rough Breath Holding Spell/Seizure this month and he had to go to the hospital :(
Febuary:
We welcomed Miss Olive Hope Megow to the family :)
We were so thankful to Megan Shiver for coming down to help me out in the hospital, it was the biggest blessing EVER!!!
Our family adjusted to life with 4 kiddos pretty quickly
Seth took the girls on a Valentine's Date this month :)

Had a wonderful church service Easter morning, and a yummy lunch that afternoon
Also, we had a failed attempt at an EEG for Titus
In May we packed up our house and moved out to the Megow farm to help take care of Mimi (Seth's parents answered their calling to move to Alabama).
This added to our family a Mimi and Uncle Thad (too briefly) and lots of new animals
We celebrated my mom's birthday during her lunch break one afternoon

We spent lots of days on the lake with friends!
This month we gave Titus a haircut, a mullet!
And visited the fire station with the Parkers and Sam
July:
In July we traveled up to Augusta for a neuro appt for Titus.
There the doctor agreed with us that his seizures were breath holding spells and that the meds (Keppra) were only making them worse due to lack of sleep and gave us the go ahead to wean him off the meds,
Praise the Lord!
Titus has since been off the meds and had no seizures since, he has had a few Breath Holding Spells, but has not had to go to the hospital or anything major, HE IS HEALED!
How great is it to be able to talk about this condition as if it were a thing in the past now! It's behind us!
Amen!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hallelujah!!!!!!!!!!!!
While we were up in Augusta, we visited and stayed with some of our bestest friends and our kids' godparents!
It was a great stay, and I am soooo thankful that they urged us to go up there and seek the 2nd opinion!
We celebrated Neela's 3rd birthday this month, Dumbo/Ice cream style!!
We all dressed in Dumbo character costumes ;)
The party guests, it was a nice, simple party (Neela Grace prefers smaller crowds)
August:
I took the kids to the Splash Park a lot in August, it was too hot to do the regular parks, so we hit this one up a whole bunch (with an Icee in tote)

We are going to just continue to chase after the Lord and get lost in His love!!!
