I wanted to share these sweet pictures of the kids through our “ER ordeal”- if you missed the story, I talked about the chaos here. I have a ton on my heart today…but for now, I will leave you with a picture heavy post of my sweet kiddos.  Aiden’s first overnight hospital stay.

whew. my emotions are all over the place. We are on day 9 of being in the NICU. The last days (even despite lots & lots of progress & continued good news) have been in a word-weepy. I start thinking about how she lays in that same bed all day (when I cannot be up […]

I don’t have the words right now, I just had a moment where I stood in the shower and let a week of tears that have slowly been building overflow from my soul. They just kept coming and coming and coming. and coming. On Tuesday, the day of Apple’s birth, we were robbed. It’s a […]

The art show tonight was a huge success! I cannot express enough how much I love being a part of this event. A percentage of each painting sold goes right back to the hospital and a lot of money was made tonight! Which makes me so happy- it is such an incredible place.  This hospital […]

Before I had Aiden I can remember moments where I would think “do I have what it takes?”  I mean I have wanted to be a mom for as long as I can remember. I have always worked with kids and always loved working with little ones.  I knew my kids would be my world.  […]
