Elise’s 3rd birthday party.

By ⋅ February 12, 2006 ⋅ Post a comment

I promised an entry on the birthday party, but unfortunately I didn’t have my digital camera that day, so I don’t have any pictures to put up.  But we all had a great time.  Elise loved her Cinderella cake (complete with a barbie doll in a cake dress) and all her presents.  One of her [...]

Success with the bottle!

By ⋅ February 12, 2006 ⋅ One comment

I have been doing more “therapeutic” feeding sessions with Emma.  All that means is giving her a bottle.  Last week when I started after taking a few weeks without any bottle, Emma wasn’t interested at all.  She loved to play with it, mostly biting, but took very few actual sucks.  Today for the first time [...]

Speech evaluation

By ⋅ February 10, 2006 ⋅ Post a comment

Emma had her evaluation done by a speech therapist today.  She also did the evaluation for gross motor, I think.  It will still be a few weeks before the paperwork will be done, but the therapist assures me that Emma qualifies, so hopefully soon we will get her routine help with feeding and oral development.  [...]

Emma home from Little Rock

By ⋅ February 9, 2006 ⋅ 2 comments

We arrived back home about 10:30 yesterday evening. Emma was fine all day yesterday, so there was no reason to keep her in the hospital. It took them awhile to actually get her discharged because they had some communication issues, so Mom and I sort of sat around all day waiting. Here is the information [...]

Down in Little Rock

Thank you all for your prayers concerning our trip to Little Rock. It didn’t go quite as expected, but perhaps it was for the best. Emma was having one of her bad days. I had to turn up her oxygen on the way down to Little Rock, but as you all remember, I was hoping [...]

Trip to Little Rock tomorrow

I would just like to remind everyone to be in prayer for my Mom, me, and Emma as we drive down to Little Rock again tomorrow.  Pray for a safe trip and safe roads.  Emma has been doing pretty well.  She still has bad moments, but nothing serious this week.  Thanks for your prayers concerning [...]

Elise is here too!

By ⋅ February 3, 2006 ⋅ Post a comment

I’ve recently realized that I should write some about Elise on this blog as well.  Many people have asked about her and how she is doing, so she is now getting her own spot here as well.  She is doing well, though has some increased anxiety from the stress of what we have been going [...]

Safe and informative trip to and from Little Rock.

By ⋅ February 2, 2006 ⋅ One comment

Mom and I were gone all day, but God provided safety in our travels to our Little Rock appointment today.  Thanks for all the prayers concerning this.  Emma had trouble right when we left and right when we headed back, but both resolved without any spells.  She didn’t get as much to eat today because [...]
