Mommy report: Back in the hospital

Nebraska ended up being flown to St. Louis this evening due to some concerns over her dehydrated state and some possible rhythm issues with her heart. I got to the hospital soon after the helicopter did, spoke with her nurses and her doctors for the evening, and decided to come down to the in-laws to sleep, since the arrangments at the hospital are in no way conducive to rest, let alone actual sleep. She was sleeping well when I left and will for the rest of the night, except that they'll be doing some testing and prodding throughout the night...another reason for my not being there and in the way.

The cardiologists are already up to date on info and they will be seeing her in the morning. I'll be heading back down early tomorrow to spend the day. Hopefully she'll be able to blog for herself by tomorrow evening. :o)

Hope you all had a very blessed Easter.

    That's a scary first Easter. I hope things are better today.

    Dear Randa
    David checked our e-mails this morning and had one from your mom about grandpa, also Nebraska. I'm praying for her and you and hope you're back home soon. She is beautiful! Christopher has a boy, Joel David, born Oct 17. They had lost 2 babies prior to Joel's birth, which is why he is "Joel," the prophet who said "stay faithful to God and he will restore what you have lost." I think Nebraska is a neat name, of course, far be it from me to not like a name - Love, "Cherita"

    Dear Braska,

    I am glad things are better today! Grandma C emailed and said you were guzzling stuff to get rehydrated! And that note from Cherita was neat! A "Joel David"-- that's the same name as your Uncle Jody; Doc Joel is "Joel David." And this new Joel David is born five days after your uncle Joel David's Oct. 12 birthday .. ON YOUR MOMMY'S BIRTHDAY, Oct. 17! How neat is that!

    Love to all!

    Happy first easter baby Braska! I thought you would want to look at easter eggs and go to church rather than ride in an airplane! I sure hope you are feeling better after you get some fluids and possibly food down. I love you little one. Aunt Valerie

    Thank you to your mommy for changing the format a bit, it helped! Love to all three of you. May you have blessed days ahead since your easter was so worrisome.

    I'm so sorry to be late on this...what a tough, tough thing, to watch your baby fly away in a helicopter. But we're all stronger than we realize, that's what I've learned. Glad to read up and learn that Braska is doing okay.

Mommy report: Chatty girl

Braska's been just loving her words lately. She's still signing some, mostly when we're in public or around strangers, but she's adding more words all the time. Many of her words are just attempts at the actual word, but that's where we all start, right?!? We're not saying that she'll be giving speeches next month, but we are very proud that she's become such a mimic and that she is loving using so many sounds. We practice often, just running through her words, signs, and tricks. She especially loves to chime in with videos of herself, so I've been working on compiling all her favorites for her to work with. As I was editing this, she was sitting here saying the words over and over. So funny to hear her talking to herself on the screen and loving it. So here's a peek at some clips from our practice session tonight. Some words are more obvious than others. They are all great attempts, though, and we'll celebrate that! Make an on-line

Braska's reaction to meeting the very kind Rory Feek and his beautiful daughter Indy.  I missed the part where Braska said Indy was sooooooooooo cute!  :) Our dream would be a photo showing the two most beautiful "states" together, right?!?  :)
