In the Paper... Delay courtesy of Mom

In APRIL, Alexis was photographed riding her tricycle at Northeast Rehab. I didn't remember to look for the picture until now, whoops.
We did make the PAPER. Here is the link, and the photo.
AWESOME FUN FOR ALEXIS. Jessica and Matthew also tried out the tricycles (different sizes) but for sure Alexis was the cutest on the tricycle.

Vote for Perkins Pond

The Perkins Pond was used on campus until 1982. Since then, it's had a fence around it and the kids weren't able to use it.

You can vote at the following website to get Perkins grant money to reopen the Pond!

NC Relatives visited

My aunt, uncle and cousin were visiting this week. Here are some lively pictures.

Alexis overnight

Alexis played with her toys until about 12midnight then she finally said, "Mom, I'm really tired, can I go to sleep?" And about 30mins later, she was sound asleep. We put on the CPAP and she slept pretty well. Thankfully she has major hearing impairments because we were in the "corner" suite (with three kids in close proximity). One kid was awake every 2 hours screaming, evidently he is a typical kid... very sad. So, I didn't sleep all that well. And then at 6am, Alexis woke up!!! So, evidently after sleeping most of the day yesterday and then a 6hr nap, it was enough for the beauty rest.
Otherwise, the floor doctors just "rounded" on Alexis and are hoping to send us home soon soon -- which in hospital time means before 12noon, hopefully we're faster than that.
Will write more later. Alexis is looking really good, taking her food and normal medications without any issue.
