One Day More...

...cue Les Mis music and the horrible "singing" of Russell Crowe.  (Was his performance last night wretched, or what?!  I love that they muted him toward the end.  The sound technicians deserved their mixing award, because he was a piece of work!)

Anyway, tomorrow is the LAST day to order Thirty-One to help the Ronald McDonald House!  The fundraiser will close at 7 p.m. EST.  Will you help us reach our goal of raising $600 for RMH?!

If you aren't interested in any products for yourself, take a look for gifts.  There are plenty of affordable gifts for family, teachers, therapists and nurses (always thinking of my special needs mommas!)  One of the reasons I did this fundraiser is because Thirty-One products are actually usable and functional, and lots of people like them!

Please take a look at the products by going here.  There's a lot more to Thirty-One than bags.  They also carry a great line of organizational products, including this Hang Up Home Organizer that I ordered for myself:

I'm excited to get our paperwork under control!!

Thank you, thank you, thank you to all of you who have already ordered!  Stacy has been doing little "shout outs" to everybody on Facebook and I've been trying to echo my thank yous as she posts them.

If you haven't ordered yet, you still have one more day!

Orrrrrrr, if you really don't want anything from Thirty-One, then I will always, ALWAYS accept donations on our team's page!    All donations go directly to The Ronald McDonald House of Baltimore!  Thanks so much for your help!

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 never wi

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 most of the words to the songs, so
