nephew

i had the chance to go back out to cali to help my sister with little stevie while her husband went back to work.  things are looking up and i was so so glad i could be there.  sure is a blessed little family and i know the best is coming for them!  my sister got a great pic of the two of us that i needed to share :)

ain't he a doll?!

doing better

the good news is that little stevie is doing better and is going to be discharged from the hospital at the end of the week.  i'm sure his parents have had all they can take of the hospital for now, but thank heavens for modern medicine and technology!  he sure is a strong boy and i can't wait to go see him at the end of the week.  love you little stephen so glad you're doing better - let's keep that going :)

prayers

as many of you know my 2 week old nephew has undergone emergency heart surgery just yesterday.  his condition is stable which is great.  my sister is keeping us updated as much as possible on this precious little one. her blog has some information on what they have gone through.  dxeechick.blogspot.com   thanks to so many of you that have shown support and love for them as they go through such a hard time.  it's a scary thing to have such major surgery for such a little guy, but he sure is a fighter.  we are now hoping for a quick and safe recovery so keep them in your prayers for a while.  thanks again.  

so much for this little guy and his family to go through.  breaks your heart :(

eyelashes

had the opportunity to meet my new little adorable nephew.  he is just such a handsome little bugger!  you can just see how smitten my sissy and bro-in-law are over their new addition, and how smitten they are with each other after going through such an awesome thing together.  it was a great and short visit and worth every second.  plus we got to ring in the new year together! yeah!
