Mallory and Kelby: March for Babies '09

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.

March for Babies '09

We had a great time at the walk again this year.

We stopped for bagels on the way down... the girls loved their bagel bites.

The walk...

We went over to Shady Grove for lunch after the walk.

We made the girls' shirts this year. "I'm a 24 weeker! Phil. 4:13"

I love Kelby's face in this one... "I will sit on this bench, but I will not smile for your picture..."
