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

School's Out.....

....For SUMMER!!! Yaaaahhhhhoooo for summer break..........just one of the many perks of being a teacher:) Anyhow, as you can see by the pictures, John LOVES the pool.........so, you will be seeing a lot more pool pictures in the upcoming posts!!!!! In Arizona, this is how you spend your summers and we can't wait!


Other John news...
  • His crawling is getting better each day.
  • He is trying to pull up (on his knees...not standing) on EVERYTHING....lots of bumps and bruises:(
  • His 2nd molar is in......total of 10 teeth!
  • He spent the night with Grams and Grandpa last night so Mommy and Daddy could go out for their 4th Anniversary!!!!!
  • I am going to contact a nutritionist in Tucson next week and hopefully start him on a blenderized diet via G-tube.
  • He has his 18 month pedi check up next week.........more shots:(
  • We have the DREADED neurology appointment on June 4th.........note to self, in one ear out the other. I have to remember that this particular Dr. has now told 3 other families that I know, that their child as a genetic disorder (which none of them do.) If you recall from our last visit, she claimed John had a genetic disorder too and that we shouldn't have any more children......where she got this info. from we don't know.

Looks like fun times ahead to me!!! I know that Kellar will love the water too..As for the bumps and bruises, I think they hurt us more than they do them, Kellar has busted his lip 3 times and not shed a tear...All that he is doing I can't imagine the neuro not being impressed!!! Go John, send some of those crawling skills Kellars way and I'll have him send the standing ones...
