March For Babies Walk 4/25/09

I want to start off by saying how proud I am of my husband. He really dedicates himself to the March for Babies each year. This year he raised $2,700 and exceeded his fundraising goal by $1,200! This year was the first year he organized a team to walk to walk in honor of Mason and CDH. 15 people came out to support him and even raised an additional $890 bringing the grand total to $3,590!

The weather turned out beautiful and we were thrilled that Mason was able to join the team in the walk. Everyone had a great time, despite sore feet after such a long walk.

Thank you to everyone who donated, participated and helped raise money for such a good cause!

Today I decided to delete my list of other CDH blogs. Unfortunately I never had the extra moment to keep the list updated like I had originally planned. Now with adding a newborn to the mix, I think I will have even less time.

If you like to check in on some Mason's CDH buddies, please visit Sofie's blog, Nayeli's blog, or Carter's blog. All three Mom's do a wonderful job with keeping updated CDH lists.

Big Brother!

Yikes....I have been a total blog slacker lately, but for good reason. We just recently welcomed Mason's baby sister into the world on April 17th at 11:30am. Mason is now a proud big brother!! He has adapted really well and is very curious about this new person in our house. So far he doesn't seem to mind us taking time to care for her and has even given her a couple of kisses. What a wonderful big brother!
