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.

A new bath time ritual..


At first glance it might appear that the bath tub toys are nicely put away. However, that is not the case. These bath tub toys are in line to "go potty". Their potty is at the other end of the bath tub, this is merely the line. Kelby makes sure every night during the bath that each and every toy has a chance to "go potty". She is very insistent in her directions to the toys that they "Go potty, right now, OK! Right now, go potty." Thankfully, she is not playing with the real potty or even her real potty. Mallory is the cheerleader for the bath tub toys. When they have finished she energetically claps and says "Yeah! Good job, you did it!"
