A Day of Firsts













Kayden grinned the entire time.


Bryce was content to play with the water in the sink.


These pictures make my heart so happy.

In Tessa news, she has the big blood draw tonight. Praying for hemoglobin levels to go up.


Her challenge right now is destating and bottle feeding. She needs to master both before allowed to come home.


Thanking God for this day of "holding firsts", with all of us in the same place, if only for a little while:-)


God is Great!!!

Love the pictures Jamie, especially the one with you and the boy's. That is the Jamie I love to see! Just got back from vacation and would love to see you! You all take good care and Tessa keep growing!

LOVE the pics of the boys holding her! The homecoming day WILL come! You'll soon be looking back on these days and thinking, "Did we really....?? Were we really there that long???" When you feel tempted to complain, try to think of one of the many things to praise Him for...the finger nails, the sweet little cheeks, etc., etc. She is so beautiful and precious! Thank you for sharing her with all of us via this blog!
