Christmas card sneak peak

CJ and Spencer...together at last!

The nurses did a great job dressing Clara to go meet her baby brother. This was kind of a surprise, so you can tell how excited she is!


CJ was very gentle and careful with her new baby brother. Mary and I are very proud of her...she is going to be a great big sister!

Spencer Reed Hoyt is here

Taking his first helicopter ride.

Clara's visit to see Spencer in Kansas City.

Wide awake, which he doesn't stay like this for long before he is sleeping again. :)

Hi Clara!

I have the hiccups Clara! I miss you and I am ready to be home with you! See you soon!

P.S. I am getting my iv out today and I won't be living in my little box much longer!

Halloween Night

Clara has finally started letting us take photos of her again without a mad face, her hand over her face, or turning her back to the camera. I love it!

Painting a Pumpkin

Clara started with painting a pretty good face, but it wasn't enough pink and purple. She then painted the stem, then the back of the pumpkin, and then all of it.
