The View From Here

These were all taken by me holding my camera above my head so that you could see what I was seeing after some hard playing!  Caleb, Abby, and I spent the late afternoon in the backyard enjoying the warm weather!  This was a new adventure for me because, until now, I have never gone outside with Abby without another adult with me.  I'm getting braver these days (and spent half an hour planning and getting everything I needed so that I would be ready for an emergency!)

Abby was in a tiny little duck pool that was just her size (she could lean against the back, so it was perfect!) and Caleb played in the sprinkler.  Afterwards, we all laid on the deck and soaked up some vitamin D for a while.  It was lovely!

Don't you love those lips?!

She was totally out.  All that splashing is hard work!

Caleb was so cold he was shivering.

I can't have anymore kids.  I don't have anymore room on my lap!  :)

I love that pudgy little hand.

Look for some more pictures of our adventure soon!

Yes, that pudgy little hand is adorable but I also think her feet and toes are the absolute bomb as well! (Just in case inquiring minds were wondering?!!!)

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...
