Cohen's First......



This was well worth breaking out of chronological order!!! This has been a fantastic day. My best friend, Kelly, called in the middle of the night to say she was in labor and heading to the hospital. The next time I heard from her I couldn't answer the phone because I was videoing Cohen taking his first steps at therapy this morning!! She forgave me!! We took video at therapy but I don't have those yet, so we recreated it at home...using M&M's instead of toys as motivation!! Hey, it worked!!

Then, Harper Elizabeth, was born around 2:30 this afternoon, weighing in at 7lbs 4 oz. and 19.25" long!! CANNOT WAIT to see her!!

Also, on today( Pregnancy and Infant Loss Remembrance Day) , remembering all the sweet mom's I met due to our journey with Cohen and their sweet, sweet sons and daughters that have already gone Home.....Issac, Asher, Miller Grace, Tristan, Maddox, Eva, Reagan, Poppy Joy, Joshua....and sadly many more... your children are truly a blessing.

Praising God for all of His wonderful blessings today!!!
