Stay at Home Mom- ...Well Work at Home Mom to Carter and Griffin-my miracle inspirations for each day. We are a family of four now. With so many friends and family far and away this is the best way to tell it all - all at once! I am the proud wife to Brett and look forward to our many years ahead...Proverbs 3: 5 – 6 “Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight.”

Dad Plays Softball!
Dad plays on the Boca Raton Resort & Club Employee Team on an adult league in the City of Boca Raton as the pitcher. Carter and I have gone to every game to cheer the team on. You could probably call us the "official" mascots, since many nights we are the only fans there (sad :( however, we go and cheer everyone on. This season they were 0-22 (maybe that's why no one goes), they have good team spirit, but they play like the Bad News Bears. O-Well, we have a great family night if anything!

Baby Griffin Update - Sunday
A big change today when we came to visit. Griffin moved to the other side of NICU. He is out of his cocoon (space age incubator he has lived in for the last 9 days). We have had some real valley's this week, and today we were on the mountain top. Praise Jesus!
While holding him sleeping today he was dreaming and grinning up a storm, I just had to snap the picture! Sweet Dreams littlest Maynard - keep growing strong!
A proud Dad - Brett says, "He's got his doubles team set up"

Happy 69th Birthday Nana!
Nana celebrated her 69th birthday this past week. Doesn't she look great~ (after working, a swim lesson, and watching Brett play softball). We took her out to Grand Lux Cafe (sister restaurant to Cheesecake Factory) in Boca. It was delish and a fun afternoon and evening with Nana! HAPPY BIRTHDAY NANA!!! We love you and wish you many more!!!

Griffin Update
Well another surprise this week... yesterday was a really hard day for all of us. Griffin-physically, us-emotionally. Griffin's breathing was very labored so they opted to put in a chest tube (very painful-on morphine) and put him on a ventilator. Well as they tried the ventilator procedure his throat was too small and it would be more trauma. So he went back on the C-pap machine (helps him breath instead of breathing for him-it opens his airways in his lungs wider than they can go to assist) and up-ed his O2.
Today when I went to visit I looked in his little cocoon, and he was off all breathing machines and O2, and breathing on his own. Miracles do happen! Now this has truly been a HUGE massive roller coaster (like the one at Sea World!) Huge mountains are gained, and deep valley's. I know his progress is only because of God himself! God is so BIG and has Griffin's life plan in the palm of His hand. Please continue to pray for him. Enjoy his sweet face as I did- I held him in my arms for an hour today, I even gave him his very first bottle-he has been on a feeding tube and an IV.
It was surreal~
