March of Dimes

We did the March of Dimes walk in May.  This walk means a lot to me as most of you know that my first son was born at 26 weeks.  We have wanted to walk it since he was born but this was the first year we were here for it.  I hope to make it every year.  Mark wasn't able to get off for it but we were joined by some great people.  Lindsey and Eli (Lindsey was in the NICU the same time we were with her son Eli), Kailie (a NICU nurse and good friend) and one of Kailie's friends.  Thank you to all of our friends and family that donated for this walk.  It was greatly appreciated!  I reached my personal goal to get a t-shirt ;)

Lindsey is so talented that she made us team shirts.  We were the Super E's!  They turned out great!  We joked that Ethan and Eli looked like Where's Waldo in the striped shirts.




Kailie carried Morgan in the backpack while I pushed Ethan in the stroller.  It was so nice that I didn't have to do both!  Thanks Kailie!

About Me

This blog started as a hobby for many reasons. It later became a way to keep the family up to date on our micro preemie baby, Ethan. Now as Ethan is nearing the 8 year mark with a little sister of 5 years I am finding a new reason to document on this blog.

Last year we were told by the school that Ethan had cerebral palsy, a blindspot and dyslexia. That is what started it all. I started taking him to doctors to find out what was going on and why this hasn't been discovered before now. In April 2017 we were told that he has executive functioning disorder. What the heck is EFD I thought?!?! After the doctor explaining it to us he basically said that if we don't start making changes now he could fall into the ADHD or possibly the autism category. Ok... so now what? What can we do?!? Well this blog is my way of documenting it all not only for me but also to help others find their way thru similar situations.
