I am pretty happy with my digital scrapbook for this year from Picaboo.com. I'm not going to order the hard copy, but you can view it digitally (Think how much money and space in my closets I'll save by doing it this way!) Here's the link: The Best of 2010 Read More

On Freud and Fingers
If you go through all of our pictures, you will notice a pattern: In MOST of them, Darcy has her hands in her mouth and is biting her fingers. I'm not sure why this has developed, but I guess she's never broken out of what Freud called the "oral stage." I have recently tried different techniques to help her fingers (which are now raw and red) to heal. However, with Darcy, you never know what's going to work. (One time in an effort to administer some creative correction, I put pepper on her Read More
Good Report
Room two was the place to be yesterday on the Cardiac Transition Unit as Gracie charmed the nurses with coos, laughs, and smiles. At 6:00 that morning when she woke up screaming, I thought it would be the longest 4 hours of my life as she had to fast before the procedure. She really surprised me by calming down and enduring without her bottle (singing some Andrew Peterson to her seemed to help).Everything went great; looking at her today you would never know what she went Read More
A Trooper
It's 10:00 Am and Gracie is getting ready to go back for an exploratory catheterization. She hasn't eaten since last night, but was amazingly cute and smiley during the prep time. She should be in the cath lab for about two hours, followed by a four hour recovery. Hopefully we will be out of the hospital by this evening. Read More
Pre-Resolution-ing
Lately, I've been goal setting. This is one of my favorite past times. Every year I set goals in each domain of health: emotional, mental, social, physical, and spiritual. I realize this is a little extreme, but nonetheless...So, I'm going to just go ahead and share the different things I want to focus on in 2011 as a way to make myself accountable to the blogging world (There couldn't be a better accountability partner, really). 1. To take out time each week to write Read More

Gracie has a heart Catheterization tomorrow in Charlottesville. After this procedure, they will be able to tell when open heart surgery #2 will be. Please pray for our family's peace and strength, Gracie's recovery, and our marriage as there will be a lot of added stressors to add to the equation. Please also pray for me (Annie) to be able to sleep through the night again. Read More
