Just for fun!

I'm pretty sure Patrick thinks I take too many pictures, but I just can't help myself sometimes...my subjects are just too cute!!!

Lauren is now very attached to her baby doll. She carries it around all day saying "mine"!

Lathan loves cell phones, remotes and pretty much anything with buttons. He also likes to kick the ball around the room. And boy does he love his books. I think its so cute because he has started to grab books and when he gets close to me he turns around and backs up the rest of the way until he lands in my lap. He'll listen to the same story over, and over, and over....

If you're needing a kiss then Logan's your man! He is the most likely to give love on his own or when asked. (Lauren will give you a hug or a kiss MOST of the time if you ask her, Lathan on the other hand is VERY stingy even if you ask politely!)

A little outside time...

More of Lauren and her baby

The doll has on a preemie outfit that Lauren wore when she was almost 2 months old! (And it pretty much fit her the same way when she wore it at first!) The matching hat that Lauren wore is too small for the doll!

Meeting the Bolline's

This blogging business sure is cool!

Today we got to meet the Bolline's...a family that I "met" through blogging earlier this year. When Lindsey commented on my blog for the first time, her twins were still in the NICU - the same NICU where our trio spent their first few weeks/months. Her babies were born 101 days early and Andrew, like Logan, had been diagnosed with a grade IV brain bleed (which is I think what really connected Lindsey and me). She had been told, just like we had, that a bleed that severe could lead to severe handicaps later on down the road. I was very happy to report to her that Logan, being about 8 months old at the time, was developing completely normal and was in fact, the strongest of our three. Both Logan and Andrew continue to amaze their Mommies in all that they've overcome!!!

Even though we had swapped stories and exchanged emails, we had never actual met in person - until today. The Bolline's live about 1 1/2 hours away from us but were in town for a doctor's appointment. We made plans to meet for lunch at Fuddruckers...

Adam and Andrew...such PRECIOUS little boys!!!

Lindsey was just like I thought she would be...a genuinly sweet person and super Mom. And not only did we get to meet Lindsey and her boys, but HER wonderful Mom joined us (and treated us!) to lunch...THANK YOU!

So who are we going to meet next??? Elle and Hunter...you guys sure are close!!!
