Tomorrow

By
Tomorrow is the big day.  I'm writing this ahead of time because I plan to spend our day making memories and enjoying being a family!  Therefore, the emotions that I'm certain I will be feeling the night before surgery aren't quite there yet...thank goodness.

We so appreciate your prayers.  Abby is scheduled for first thing in the morning and we expect the surgery to go well into the afternoon.  I don't expect that we will be able to see her until late afternoon/early evening.  I will be posting updates on Facebook and on here as I can. I do have a blogger app now that makes things a little easier.  Mostly, I am pretty sure I'll be staring into space or pretending to read my book while my mind is racing.

We would be honored if you would join us in wearing purple tomorrow to show your support of Abby!  If you have a Joy Runners shirt that we sold as a fundraiser for RMH, that is perfect!  Otherwise, dress yourself in purple and choose joy!  I know that Abby would love to see selfies of everybody in their purple!  You can post them on Facebook or email them to me.  As she recovers, hopefully they'll put a smile on her face.  :)

Thank you for all of your love and support.  Abby is a fighter, and our God is greater!

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 never wi

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 most of the words to the songs, so
