Keeping Busy

Emma is such a blessed little girl and as we continue our hospital stay I see it more and more... She has so many people that love her in and out of the hospital. While we have been in the hospital, our hospital family has lavished her with affection and brought things in to keep Emma entertained. This has and continues to bless me as well, not only do I love that my daughter is loved, but it can take a small break from doing the entertaining. Our parents have been a tremendous help as well, with visits and "in-room Emma sitting" so we can get out and I can continue to work. We are hoping to go home on the 1st of July as long as Emma stays infection free. Please pray that we will be able to go home once her IV antibiotic treatment is complete. Thank you for all of your love and support. Here are a few pictures from the last few days...

G'ma Carol (from CHOC) brought is this GREAT toy for Emma this morning. Lets here it for the exersaucer!!! Mommy's arms have never been so free.

Emma loves the exersaucer!

Auntie Kelly and Uncle Braden came to visit
Emma & Nurse Holli , Emma loves her Holli. Mommy loves her too, she always sleeps well knowing Holli is caring for Emma

Emma and Nurse Rhonda, Emma loves Rhonda and giggles every time she comes to visit

Grandma brought a "croaking" frog for Emma from Grandpa ;)


As you can see Emma loves her frog... Emma also got a frog from Grandma's friend Lisa. Emma is one spoiled lil' one...In a wonderful way!

Yes, she is loved!!!!
We are praising God for the wonderful nurses and staff that allow you to feel peaceful while they are caring for Emma.

We will pray that she stays infection free and that you can be home on the 1st!

Hi Mark and Alissa -

I wanted to write and let you know that Mario and I have been praying for little Emma. Anytime we see your mom, Dee or Karen we always ask how Emma is doing. We love you and hope to see you on the 4th at Dee's.

Lots of Love, Mario and Amber (-:
