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

Best Friends Forever

Brittany, Brayden, and Blayke came down this weekend so the boys could play! We all had a great time......and now all John wants to do it climb on the couch and play because he saw the boys do it. It's awesome how quickly he's picking up on things.......Britt, we definitely need to have more playdates!

Anyhow, it was pretty neat watching the boys play..........especially since it seems like yesterday that Brittany and I were kids and were running around playing together (we've been best friends since 3rd grade and ironically, I teach at the elementary school where we both went.)

The boys were all so well behaved and took turns and shared all the toys!


We tried to get a picture of the 3 of them but this is what we got:)



Grams and Grandpa brought Happy Meals over for the boys.........but while we were waiting for them they enjoyed some pudding. Can you guess which one had chocolate?


Before they ate their pudding I told them I had to take John's shirt off because he was a messy eater.........Brayden and Blayke decided they needed to eat with their shirts off too. Too darn cute!

After lunch....Britt packed the boys up and headed back to Flagstaff and John headed straight to the tub!

Thanks for coming down Brittany........we had sooooooooooo much fun and we can't wait for our next get together. We'll come to you next time:)

Soooo cute...love the chocolate face!
Just wanted you to see this comment...it was meant for the video. Being partial to Rocky (Edwin Sr is a boxer of course) is not the reason I loved that video (although great choice in music!) John just gives me so much hope for the future and his determination and smile bring tears of joy to my eyes! He's just so stinkin cute and sooooo cool!!! :)
