After 7 hours at the hospital, they sent JC and Lindsay home just to come back tomorrow to get the blood patch done. :(. Her blood pressure was high, so they gave her medicine for it and sent them home – I am pretty sure that the blood pressure was the reason they couldn’t do […]
20 things I can’t imagine myself ever doing
Greta, unlike me, who let my 100th blog pass last week without much fanfare, is holding a contest in honor of her 100th blog – yay Greta! So, to enter her contest, and to (hopefully) entertain you, my readers, here are 20 things I would never do. Actually, that’s a dangerous phrase – no need […]
Eli and Lindsay Update
JC just emailed me: Eli’s doing great, we saw him this morning and Lindsay went over at lunch. He’s off the IV and is on “full feed;” that is, he is getting all of his calories from milk. The nurses keep telling us how amazed they are at his appetite. He eats every three hours, […]
thanks for nuthin’
Who knew that all you had to do was ask for advice of all things, and NO ONE would comment on your blog?? I mean, not even a comment about the videos or anything!! I thought everyone liked giving advice!! Since you guys were no help, I had to do all the research myself. Just […]
Roaring and Cameras
Eli-Junkies – the two posts below this one have updates on and pictures of Eli. However, I need all the advice I can get regarding the camera question towards the end of this post. If you have any input, please help me! I wrote a few days ago about Chris telling Ali that her (dirty) […]

Eli in Pictures
We ALL went up to the hospital yesterday after lunch (all meaning JC, Lindsay, Me, Chris, Ali, Mom, Dad, and Mammaw, plus Lindsay’s Mom and Grandmother met us up there! We were quite the crowd in the hallway!), so my Mom and I were able to get a bunch of pictures. Here is their first […]
Eli Update
JC Emailed me just past midnight last night – they had just gotten home from visiting Eli. I guess Eli’s a night owl like his Daddy! Here’s the update: No big news, but he’s doing great. He’s still at 3 lbs, but breathing 21% oxygen (just like the rest of us) and now getting 15 […]
A Saturday in Pictures: Mother’s Day Re-Do
Chris declared today “Mother’s Day” to make up for the real Mother’s day that I spent in the ER. So I got to pick everything that we did and ate all day long! What a sweet hubby I have! We started out the morning reading books. Ali is doing great with her letters. She recognizes […]
ROAR!
Ali loves to do animal noises. She probably has about 20 animals that you can go through and she will answer with the noise, such as “what does the sheep say?” Ali: “ba_a_a”. Ali is teething again, so she is having incomprehensibly nasty diapers. For those of you who are not parents yet or who […]
