Not Me Monday!

By


I just joined this huge carnival of bloggers who all write "Not Me Mondays" about stuff that they most DEFINITELY did NOT do (but they really did!) It's a fun way to confess your humanity...so here goes!

I did not cry at the thought of Caleb not needing to announce that he was awake in the morning--no, I did not begin to realize that my baby is growing up and has found other ways to entertain himself!

I did not go to sleep at 7:30 after I put Caleb to bed twice this last week because of utter exhaustion!

I did not eat an entire bag of popcorn for dinner...several nights in a row!

I do not have a "Salz" canister (that means Salt in German) that is actually a secret stash of chocolate.

I did not find myself thoroughly enjoying Little Einsteins yesterday morning. I certainly did not find myself wishing that it was longer and saddened when it was over!

I did not drive a remote control car all over the house knowing that it was getting marks all over the walls but having way too much fun chasing Caleb around to care.

I did not get completely grossed out during Communion at the thought of all the dirty hands that touched the Communion bread. I definitely didn't seriously consider not taking a piece to avoid contamination. After all, we are not in the midst of a Swine Flu epidemic!!

Okay, that's all I can think of right now. Hope I got you laughing! :)

Kinda glad I was walking 13 miles in the rain instead of taking communion and catching the swine flu...

Cerebrocostomandibular Syndrome

By
If you happen to pick up the latest Reader's Digest, there is an article in there about Piper Breinholt , a four year old with CCMS.  If you've been around here a while, you'll remember wayyyyyy back when we first received Abby's diagnosis that I was able to speak to Piper's mom, Reagan.  The article is more about their story and not as much about the ins and outs of CCMS, but I think it's probably enough to get some people googling it and I'm hoping a few will end up here. Every once in a while, I give a blog post the title of Cerebrocostomandibular Syndrome so that it would show up in Google.  My ever-present hope is that people will stumble across my blog and 1) be encouraged by the hope we have in Christ, 2) feel a connection with someone in a similar situation as them, or 3) get excited over the miracles that have been performed in Abby's life!!  (a combination of all 3 is great too!)  :)   Notice that it's not to get famous and it ...

Bath Time Photos!!

By
As promised, here are lots of photos of Abby's first bath. Caleb was supposed to be in bed, but the bathroom is right next to his room... "I'm not too sure about this..." Once she learned how to splash, she was all smiles! Her first good hair wash! Gotta protect the trach! She really liked getting water poured on her head.  It was cute! Smiley (and bubbly) for Daddy while he dried her off. All clean!!  (Note the Lysol wipes in that last picture.  They are NEVER far away!)

Imagination Movers Photo Recap

By
Seriously, The Imagination Movers were so much fun!  They played lots of their own music, with some classic rock mixed in for the adults.  There were also quite a few jokes and references to Baltimore, which was kind of fun.   The whole night centered around this robot named Rock-o-Matic, or "Rocko."   This is Mover Scott, and he wears Wobble Goggles that help him see new ideas.  Caleb and Abby have a pair of goggles too.  :) There are 4 main Movers that are part of the TV show, but they have 2 extra movers to play instruments and do back-up vocals in their live tour. Abby finished up her feed before the show started so that she would be free to dance! My dancing queen did NOT want to sit in my lap.  The row in front of us was empty, and that is where she stood almost the entire show--dancing the night away. My Imagination Movers  Caleb did his share of singing and dancing too.  He knows m...
