March for Babies

Hey everyone! We participated in our 1st March of Dimes-March for Babies 2009 on Sunday, April 26th. It was a lot of fun! It was a 5 mile walk & the day couldn't have been more beautiful! We were excited to raise money for March of Dimes to help premature babies like Abigail. Abigail did so good on the walk & even fell asleep at one point. We saw Abigail's 1st NICU nurse, Tish, & she got to hold Abigail. Thank you to everyone who supported us & walked with us. We're looking forward to walking again next year. We are so thankful every day that Abigail is a healthy, thriving baby. She is finally getting teeth. Her 2 bottom teeth popped through just before her 1st birthday.

Happy 1st Birthday, Abigail!

Happy 1st Birthday Abigail!! I can't believe that she was born a year ago. We went back to the bpd clinic on her birthday & they left her on oxygen @ night for maybe another month. I will let you know when she is off oxygen completely. Abigail now weighs 10 lbs. 12 oz. & is 22 inches long. She is still on formula bottles & is eating vegetables, fruits, & cereal. She is saying dada & loves to stick her tongue out. We had her 1st Birthday party, which had a princess theme, on April 18th. It was a lot of fun. We put her in her bumbo chair with a tray & put her smash cake in front of her. She got some icing off the top of it. Our next big event is March of Dimes, March for Babies on April 26th. This cause is near to my heart because March of Dimes raises money to help give every baby a healthy start. Their logo is one day... all babies will be born healthy. I hope so.
