Stay with me. I have found that my thoughts are way more eloquent than my written words. I think that when they are still in my head, they are attached to all the emotions behind the thought, and once they are written, well, they are just words. I say this because I don’t think anything [...]
It’s been a busy couple of weeks. Throughout the last fourteen days, Eliana has: moved across the hall from NICU1 to NICU2 (definitely a less “critical” and certainly more calm environment), learned her Dad’s food=good philosophy (and, subsequently, gained some much-needed weight), passed a hearing test, passed a carseat test, spent her first night (semi-)alone [...]
I’ve been reflecting on Eliana’s journey this past week and have once again been in awe of the amount of people praying for this beautiful little girl. I wanted to take a minute and share a few things with all of you that have been so wonderful and faithful in praying for her. It was [...]
We had a really good weekend! First I want to thank everyone that came out or supported us in the March for Babies walk this Saturday. We ended up having 14 people walking for Team Eliana and we raised a total of $630! The weather was wonderful and the rain held off until long after [...]
Our little girl is six weeks old today. . .which is really hard to believe! Things are going so well and we are finally starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel. Unfortunately though, we don’t know how far away that light might be. She is steadily gaining weight – currently weighing [...]
We’re very excited to be a part of March for Babies this year and hope you will join our team! Every day, thousands of babies are born too soon, too small and often very sick. We’re walking because we want to do something about this. As most of you know, Jason and I recently welcomed [...]
Well, one month old anyway! It’s hard to believe, but on Friday, our little girl turned one month old. Not only did she hit that milestone, but she also made it to another – she also turned 3! Three pounds, that is. (Although, as of last night she was at 3 lbs, 2 oz). She [...]
It’s been another really good day for our girl! She is such a little trooper!! We found out last week that her little hips are quite tight due to the fact that she spends her entire day (and night) all curled up in a little ball. Because of this she isn’t able to put her [...]
Update 4/3/2010 at 9:00 am Wow, it seems like it has been a lifetime since my last post, but it has only been a few days! There have been so many changes in the last 24 hours! I want to start off though by saying thank you again. I cannot express how much your thoughts [...]
Update 3/29/2010 at 5:30pm And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love. Faith is the foundation and content of God’s message; hope is the attitude and focus; love is the action. When faith and hope are in line, you are free to love completely because you understand [...]
