A brief moment off the vent at 3 weeks old… She was put back on soon after.

It’s day #4 of CHD Awareness Week!

I thought… what was more perfect than to show my little CHDer making some HUGE developmental steps??? Our little babies get so far behind from being in the hospital, some more than others. But with a lot of hard work (and therapists!) they’ll catch up!!!

This was at PT yesterday. Unfortunately I just had my phone so the video quality is NOT what I would have wanted for this amazing moment….

But it will have to do!

(Oh, and Skinny Friday will resume next week… my scale has decided to not tell me my weight. Instead, it’s just trying to boost my confidence by saying LO every time I step on it. My husband says it’s because the battery needs changing… but I think my scale just loves me that much that it is saying, “Honey, your weight is getting so LO I can hardly tell you’re on here!” And that’s my story and I’m stinkin’ to it!)

Oh, and don’t forget to pray for our CHD kiddos (and adults!!!) If you haven’t added to my list, or want to comment committing to praying this week, click here!

    1. Chels… holy cow I was holding my breath too!!! If it hadn't been for the fact that the camera would go crazy, I would have jumped up and down and screamed 🙂 (that, and I would have scared Annabelle and the other kiddos in the room, HA HA!)
