* Ryan and Shelby named their little daughter Elise Marie. 🙂 Elise is doing quite well in the NICU, praise God. The road ahead is still long and needs to be bathed in much prayer. But we are all seeing God’s faithfulness to this baby and her family in both large and small ways. He is good and merciful! Did I mention that I was blessed to be able to visit Elise in the NICU the day she was born? She is lovely, delicate, and beautiful. Her tiny hand grasped her mommy’s finger, and it melted my heart. Next time, I’ll be sure to have a camera in my purse!
* Gabriel David was TWO MONTHS yesterday!! I can’t believe it. He’s almost 13 pounds now, and I think he may be taller than his daddy someday. 🙂
* I’m so thankful for my husband, who has been diligently taking care of me & Gabriel the last couple of days as I’ve been plagued with mastitis. Steven blesses me so much.
* I’ve had Starbucks twice in the last week. That = me being super spoiled.

That’s all the news I can think of. Pretty much sums up life right now. 🙂
