We visited Ava early this afternoon with Alisson. It was wonderful to see Ava get a bath. Alisson is amazing with Ava... we are so proud of our daughter. After Alisson fed Ava, Pappy and I got to hold our precious granddaughter. We are so thankful that she is beginning to gain weight and is doing so well. With God all things are possible.

Fun With Tyler

Tyler is anticipating the "claw." This has been a tradition with Pappy's grandchildren.

We had a few hours just with Tyler today as the rest of the family celebrated big sister's birthday party. They took her friends to see the movie Puss n Boots. We had a delightful time with Tyler. Here are photos of Pappy playing his "claw" game with Tyler. They has so much fun together.

A Bath for Ava Grace

Here is princess Ava's chart at the NICU. It says her last bath was 10/24 and to save tonight's bath for Mom.

All of Ava's things are set out for Mommy to give Ava a bath... jammies, and diaper.

Pappy and I went up to see Ava Grace on Thursday before her Mommy and Daddy went up to the hospital to give her a bath. Here is Mommy washing Ava's hair. Preemie princess Ava is a sweetie!!!!

Silly Evan

When we took the kiddos to visit their Mommy in the hospital, Evan wanted me to keep taking pictures of him. He would say, "Take another one." So, here is one of the photos I took. Evan is a sweet little boy. We are so blessed.

Welcome to Ava Grace

Our precious granddaughter, Ava Grace, was born on Oct. 21, 2011 at 2:38pm. She weighed 2lbs. 9oz. and is 14 1/2 inches long. She will be in the NICU for 4-8 weeks. Please pray for her continued growth and development.

Tyler Turns 1

Tyler listening while we sing "Happy Birthday" to him.

Happy Birthday to grandson Tyler!!! His mommy had his baby sister Ava born on his birthday. We finally celebrated Tyler's birthday a day late. That little guy opened his mouth and tried to take a bite out of the whole cake. Pappy baked a chocolate cake and on the top we had orange frosting. We made a jack-o-lantern face with black icing and candy corn. Tyler was so cute attacking the cake.
