Youth Deer Hunt

Dan's stepson Travis tagged a deer on the youth hunt this year. On the left is my son Dan and the right my husband Danny. Both Dan's were just as thrilled as Travis.

Incredible Ice Show

Danielle and I went to Disney on ice at the palace along with Theresa and her grandsons on 10/1/08. The souvenirs were so expensive Theresa had Danielle pose in front of a poster for a keepsake.

Ella looking at her little world

Ella is almost 7 weeks now. If she was still in the womb she would be 30 weeks. She's making great progress. She is back on breast milk tube feeding as a supplement to her IV and today they are going to try her without the ventilator tube and put on a cpap instead.

Hurray Ella is over 2 pounds!

We give thanks to all that have been praying for this little angel baby. Praise God from Whom all blessings flow!

          

Sign of intelligence

Neveah 5 weeks old. She's such a bright eyed baby... has been since she was born. The nurse said that's a sign of intelligence (must take after Nana LOL).

Ella with Daddy

Welcome Nevaeh

And this is my new great granddaughter born a week after Ella on 9/20/08. She weighed 8 # 7 ounces and was 20 " long. Her name is Nevaeh Shae. Nevaeh is Heaven spelled backwards.

Mommy touching me!

When Ella was born we asked the nurse if she had taken care of babies smaller than Ella and she said yes. She also said she has seen babies bigger than Ella aborted.
