April 25, 2009

Jeff and I want to thank our sister-in-law, Jessica, who today is walking in March of Dimes Walk in Portland along with my brother, Brandon. Jessica organized a team in Baby Vann's name (Baby Vann Rocks). She is a nurse in Portland and was able to put together a great team to raise awareness of prematurity. I am happy to say that she raised over $1,000...all in the name of Vann. It means so much to Jeff and I for her to put this all together. This has been such a long road for us and for her to take the time to do what she can to help, means the world. If Baby Vann could talk, he would tell his Auntie Jessica that he loves her very much and today, she has made a difference!

Jeff and I never imagined this would happen to us. We are so blessed that Vann was able and continues to be strong enough to fight through being born at 25 weeks. It is a hard fight for these little babies. Thanks Jessica! Go Team Baby Vann Rocks!!! We love you!

Un-freaking-believable that time has flown so fast and Vann is now a chunky little man! The walk was awesome today! Henry had a blast walking on the river, seeing dogs and boats and trains and bridges and being "downtown." Glad Mr Vann is doing great! We can't wait to see him, only a little over a month!!!
