Mallory and Kelby: Kelby Knievel

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.

Kelby Knievel

Kelby has one speed... 90 miles an hour. Non-stop, from the moment she wakes....bouncing off the walls, giggling all the while. This is just the latest of her injuries - it doesn't look that bad in the photo- but she hit the corner of our entertainment center door on her forehead. Kelby cried for maybe 2 minutes. It made a huge egg on her forehead, but she couldn't have cared less. She went right back to playing and laughing as I took pictures. Nothing slows our Kurly Sue down, nothing, and we love it!
