New Cooler Bag

I got a new cooler bag from Lock and Lock that is pretty nice.  The zipper is a little tough, but that's really my only complaint.  It's a nice size and I've already used it a couple of times to pack a lunch for doctor's appointments.


In my newest shipment for being a Supporter, I got another cooler bag!  It's a bit smaller and made for one person, so I haven't used it yet (usually I pack for two people, plus Abby's milk and solids, when we go to the doctor, so I need a bigger bag), but it's nice for a lunch bag.  Matt likes it because it's "manly," unlike the others I have.  What does he have against Vera Bradley??


That one came with three (pretty!  They're a dark green!) square containers.  I love them!!  They are all the same size, but two are just open containers.  You can fit a whole lot of food in them.  The third is above, and it's stinkin' cool.  See how it's divided?   
The whole thing lifts out so that you could just use it as an open container as well. It holds a surprising amount of food.


 
This is the coolest part!  You can put this little grate on top (if you want, or you can leave it off) and put an ice pack on it!  That way, your food stays nice and cold!

Pretty cool!  The ice pack comes with it, but make sure you freeze it flat!  It's a snug fit, so any bumps from freezing it in a clump will keep the lid from closing.

If you're in the market for a new lunch bag, I would definitely go for this one.  Even if you're not, you get three really nice containers out of it!!  :)

I ordered the largest red version of this bag yesterday. I'm thinking that I'll just freeze the little freeze bag in the box itself then I know it will fit.

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
