Just Another Friday Night

We headed out to the Farmer's Market, which I have mentioned before. (You SO need to go!) Abby stayed in her carrier with the winter fleece cover on to keep out the wind. She was also wearing a sweater over a longsleeved shirt, so she was plenty warm enough!

When it got a little too windy, we flipped the cover over her. For the most part, it was nice out though.

The waves have been really choppy the last few times we've been there.

But Caleb loved to run up and down the boardwalk and watch the waves crash against the rocks!

Owen, Sara, and Caleb enjoyed feeding the ducks...as long as they didn't have to get too close to them!

It was a fun Friday night. Here's to many more between now and October!!

Didn't you see the signs that say Not to feed the ducks and seagulls? Me neither 'til we got yelled at by a boardwalk attendant. I have been walking the BW 3 or 4 times a week since the weather's been nice. Wish it was closer or gas prices would go down. It's a really nice walk this time of year. Let me know next time...maybe I can meet you there!

Even though we live in Alexandria, North Beach's Farmers Market is my absolute favorite. We went all the time last summer. (In fact I think we saw you there.) It's funny that you posted this because I was just thinking about how I wanted to go next Friday!

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...
