This is the amazing journey of our two miracles. John Craig was born on November 30, 2005 at 24 weeks and 5 days gestation. He weighed 1 pound 8 ounces and was 12 inches long. John is a true miracle and an inspiration to all that meet him! Hope Amanda, our perfect little girl, is currently recovering from two brain surgeries to remove a 6cm mass from the center of her brain. Hope represents everything good in this world and she too is an inspiration to all.
For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you a hope and a future.
Jeremiah 29.11

Sick Little Man:(


Our little guy has definitely caught something fierce...........please pray that it is not strep throat! I think it is just a cold but just a cold can hit a preemie pretty hard. Even though John didn't have any lung disease I am feeling a little on edge because whatever he has is in his lungs and he is coughing up a storm (which of course makes him vomit.) Thankfully we can keep him hydrated through his G-tube. So, we may be visiting the pedi tomorrow.....we'll see how tonight goes!

We've got to get him healthy.........the big day (WalkAmerica) is the following weekend. Speaking of WalkAmerica..........Team John is kicking some serious butt. We have now raised $4675 plus $700 (California team.) Thank you to everyone for supporting and donating to MOD! We will be walking in honor of John, Cole & Paige (24 week surviving triplets,) Sammie (24 weeker & John's NICU girlfriend,) and Carter (24 week surviving triplet & John's first friend) and in memory of Kaylee (sister to Cole & Paige,) and Carson & Carly (brother and sister to Carter.)

Here are a few pictures from breakfast this morning..........cough, snot, and yet still smiling! He's the greatest kid in the world!!!
