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.

Easter! Easter! Easter!

We had a fantastic Easter this year. The weather was gorgeous, went to church; heard a great sermon and fell in love with our church all over again!, had brunch, took naps, and finished the day hunting eggs with friends. Could not have asked for a better day, except if we had our families to join us. Here are a few pictures. As the girls get older it is harder to place, primp, plead for smiles and take the picture all before something changes, so bear with us, this is all we could get before melt down hit.






The Candy! (goldfish)












We tried to come up with a way to top last years but it proved to be impossible. =)

Shhh, Testing in Progress!



As many of you know Jeremy is taking his PE exam on April 24th (prayers please!). This weekend he took a practice test. The girls woke up from naps about an hour to soon. Rainy weather canceled out the swinging outside or the walk so we opted for snack time. A little popcorn in a snack cup shut them up for about 45min. Haha!I have never seen the girls eat so quietly! It was priceless, if they dropped, the quickly picked it up and savored the very last morsel of popcorn. We have had it before but apparently that was what they were craving.

*Oh and normally a basket decoratively hides the collect of stuffed animals, but the basket also makes a fabulous Easter basket for the Easter bunny to leave his treasures.

We have walkers...

The girls have been walking all over the place today. This is all we got on video. Our neighbor's daughter, Kaylen, came over to play also.
