We had a great time visiting with Liv's class. Mrs. Lacey is a wonderful teacher and Liv is receiving great instruction both educationally and spiritually.

The Girls Visit Dr. Ellis

Waiting for Dr. Ellis to arrive

Liv is trying to figure out her chart

After Dr. Ellis listened to Liv's heart, she insisted that she needed to listen to his as well.

A little sister love and comfort after getting shots!

Taking both girls to the pediatrician at the same time made for quite an afternoon...not for me and Yah-yah...but for Dr. Ellis! Ha!

All Birthday girls need a bit of Sparkle!

Olivia Taylor's Fourth Birthday

Broken Wrist

On September 17th, Olivia broke her wrist in 2 places when she fell climbing up a ladder to slide on the playground at school. She had to have a cast and chose a pretty purple one.

Yesterday, she pulled her cast OFF!!! After she did it, she freaked out, and shoved it back on with the thumb hole the wrong way. The school called us and we had to take her to be re-cast. She selected a bright red cast this time.

The excuses for removing the cast have ranged from:

- I was hot

- I was itchy

- I wanted a red one for Alabama

First Days At Home

Sisters, Sisters, There've Never Been Two More Devoted Sisters

Sharing, Caring, Every single Thing That We Are Wearing.....

Olivia got to see her little sister in the NICU right after she was born. These pictures are from the second day. Liv got 15 minutes with Felicity a day while she was in the NICU. Even though the time was short, I think they bonded. Anytime another baby cried or a monitor alarm went off, Olivia would comfort Felicity and glare at the offending party that dared disturb her sister. Olivia is so proud of her little sister, and we are so proud of the way she has transitioned into her role as big sister.

4 Day Stay in the NICU

Felicity had a 4 day stay in the NICU, but Praise The LORD, she did very well and came home with us on Friday, which none of the doctors expected would happen. We know this is due to all of the prayers of our friends and family. We can not thank all of you enough for covering Felicity in prayer during this time.

All of the nurses that cared for Felicity were amazing! It is so hard not to get to care for your own baby, but they loved on her and gave her so much attention, that is really made the scary time much less stressful.
