New Philly Park

Ok, so my mom is back to work now, and I haven't had time to post much lately...sorry! All is well here. I have adjusted pretty well to going back to the sitter's full time. I have been a bit of a problem at night...just ask my mom....but all in all, I have been a good girl. We had one last shin dig before school started at the New Philly park last weekend. What a great time. I highly reccommend going! My friend Ryne and I went, and we took our moms and dads, too! You'll see what a great time I had. My mommy has only 10 more weeks to go before our new baby comes. She is doing well, too (even though her classroom has been over 100 degrees all last week). Hope to post again real soon! Love to you all!

Three Year Pictures

So, my mom is a little fruity...she had my 3 year pictures taken....but I haven't had my birthday yet! Yikes! She is trying to get ready for school next week and wanted my pictures to be done with before that. So, here they are! I will be sending them out soon. Mom said we should wait until after my birthday to give them to family and friends.....to make it official, I guess! Moms....geez! See what you think...I am really growing up fast. Enjoy!

God is holding Hope in His hands...

Just a brief note to let you know that Hope Rylee (11 weeks) passed away peacefully Monday night at Rainbow Babies hospital. Her mom and dad were with her. Auble Funeral home is handling arrangements. The calling hours will be at 10 am on Thursday morning (Aug. 9) with the funeral following at 11 am. Please continue to lift up this family. We pray for peace, strength, and faith during this very difficult time. Thanks for your prayers in advance.

A Zoo Day!

Ryne, my friend, turned 3 today. Isn't that cool? So, Ryne, my friend, Tristan, and myself (along with our moms) went to the zoo today. It was super hot, but we still had a fun time. There were a few breakdown moments....but we all did pretty well all in all. I wanted to share some pictures with you of our trip. Hope you enjoy them.

Quick update on Baby Hope

Hello, all. This is Ellie's mom with a quick update on Baby Hope. I don't know very much, but can share a tiny bit with you. Brian spoke to Hope's dad last night, and at the meeting on Wednesday with the panel of doctors, it was decided that this Monday, Aug. 6, Hope will be taken off the vent. As I understand it, she will not be put back on this time. I will be with Hope's mom today, and may find out more that I can share with you. The reason I am sharing this with you all is just to please put this family in your prayers. They need a lot of support and the power of prayer is awesome. I will surely be updating you when any other info becomes available. Feel free to put Hope and her family on your prayer chains if she is not already there....and I thank you in advance for all your help!
