Wedding Recap

Abby and Caleb were in a wedding recently, and our crazy week last week prevented me from being able to post anything about it!  

They both "performed" perfectly, and Caleb took his duties as the ring bearer very seriously.  He didn't get to carry the rings, but perhaps if he had, they wouldn't have been left in the best man's car!!!!  (True, and hysterically funny, story!)  I don't think anyone is ever going to forget that wedding!

In all seriousness, it was a beautiful, God-honoring wedding and I think everyone had a lot of fun.  The kids loved the dancing and Abby cried whenever I took her off the dance floor.  :)

This is Abby with her co-flower girl, who was adorable!  The two of them became fast friends!



The other flower girl's mom caught this one, and I absolutely love her smile!  With their backs to us are Caleb and his co-ring bearer.  He was quite enamored with Abby, and I think she may have had a little crush on him as well!


The beautiful bride and handsome groom with all the kids...at least one is smiling!


Just a phone picture of my cute kiddos with their "sister."  :) 



I have a couple of videos I took on my phone as well, but I can't seem to upload them here.  I'll work on it and try to upload them on another post.

Besides loving watching one of my favorite women get married, I had two favorite parts of the night as a momma:  1).  Watching Abby and Caleb walk in together after they were announced as part of the bridal party.  I never would have thought that would have happened if you had asked me 8 months ago!  Caleb was SO good about leading Abby.  He is the perfect big brother!  2).  The daddy-daughter dance to "My Wish."  They invited all of the daddies and daughters to dance, and Matt took Abby.  The song was perfect, and I about bawled my eyes out.  Ok, I'm crying just thinking about it.

Cerebrocostomandibular Syndrome

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!!

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

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...
