Mallory and Kelby: Mother's Day!

The girls were born on November 16th, 2007, 16 weeks early. Mallory Kate – 1 lb 8 oz, Evan Reese – 1 lb 1 oz, and Kelby Grace – 1 lb 5 oz. Upon their delivery, Mallory and Kelby were transferred to St. David’s South and were doing fairly well considering the circumstances. Our little Evan Reese was a fighter, but she had a lot of problems and she was with us for about 5 hours. We love you Evan and we miss you everyday, but we know we’ll see you again one day. Mallory and Kelby both went through a lot in their 105 day stay in the hospital, from heart surgeries, to brain bleeds, to infections. Many prayers were answered and we thank God everyday for everything He has done for them. Today they are perfectly healthy and growing bigger and stronger everyday. We started this blog to keep everybody updated on their progress. You can scroll down to the bottom of the page for a slideshow from the NICU days.

Mother's Day!

I finally got to celebrate Mother's Day as a Mom. What a great day! Jeremy fed the girls for me so I got to sleep a full 8 hours. I woke up and was greeted by the girls and presents - can't think of a better way to wake up. Jeremy and the girls got me a bracelet and necklace from James Avery. The bracelet has an angel charm for Evan and the necklace has a flower with the girls birthstone. After we fed the girls we went for an early lunch and then ran a few errands. I even got a nap in! Haven't done that in I don't know how long!! All of us piled on the guest bed for a snooze. Afterward we took some pictures on the swing. Possibly should have done them before the nap, my eyes are still sleepy! haha!
