Eli's Journey

Today, thanks to Granna and Grandpa's generosity, Sophia and I attended the Little Light House's annual fundraiser called Garden Party. The ladies are invted to wear a hat. For those who take it a little far, grandest hat awards are given. This year, Sophia won Grandest Hat in the little girl category. She was thrilled. I will post a picture of her hat for you soon. She adorned it herself. Eli is doing great. He has an ear infection and we need to get that whipped. He isn't moving his new thumb yet although the cast is off. Please pray Elijah will thrive with his new thumb soon. I turned 35 this week. Thank you for all of the b-day wishes. Love you all, Melissa

Friends, I apologize for our too long wait between posts. This time it simply means we've been super busy. You may remember that we told Sophia she could have a dog after the major surgeries. David and I decided that with only one left, we could take the plunge early. So, one week ago, Charlie the Yorkiepoo joined our family. He is 10 weeks old now and so sweet and fiesty. Such a cute dog (think teddy bear, folks)...and adorable girl. Elijah on Easter. Eli, Sophia and Charlie on Easter. On Monday, Eli and David travel to Shreveport. Eli will have his cast removed on Tuesday. Then, we won't be back in shreveport until July 21 for leg straightening. Eli is thriving! Love you all, Melissa
