Here is his big-boy set that we made for him.  We are so happy for Isaiah and his family that he will soon be home.

Double pride

Double pride – that’s what I feel about my kids – my sons – my boys.  I’m always proud of them.  I’ll start with Corey.  Since he was born second, I’ll let him go first in my pride post………..

Corey is building a cnc router.  He has researched the hell out of it and is a genius to build something like this.  It is being put together in his basement with the fabricating being done at his workplace.  Here he is in his basement beaming with pride (it runs in the family)…..

I’m equally proud of Keith.  He ran his second half-marathon (he says it’s his last – he wants to focus on improving on his 5k’s).  He completed the Chicago Half Marathon on September 11, 2011.  It was a glorious beautiful day (especially since I was NOT running the half marathon – 13.1 miles).  He crossed the finish line smiling and waving……….

Is this funny????

Is this funny?  Keith seemed to think so (so did I).  He was fixing my laptop and for shock value, he said “look Mom!”……..

Dunebrook – September 6, 2011

Dunebrook……..what can I say about Dunebrook……..we are happy to help them – we are happy to help all that we do help and wish we could help more.  We cut back on our full-term sets as it just got to be too much.  For the hospitals, we went back to doing only preemie sets as that was our original vision with TeamZachMcD – Zach was a preemie and we wanted to do something for the other preemie families.  We will continue to do full-term for Dunebrook and Stepping Stone and will continue making chemo hats.

That being said, here is our latest delivery to Dunebrook………..

Memorial – September 4, 2011

Our delivery to Memorial Hospital in South Bend, Indiana was small – they only needed Halloween as they have others who also donate and they had enough at the present time.  Here are their Halloween sets…….

Who is our favorite princess?????

Molly is our favorite princess.  She knows she is a princess and wears it well.  She went to live with Keith and Justin when Keith moved out.  Keith took this picture of her – she’s a sixteen year old beauty.  Her mommy abandoned her when she was two weeks old and we took her in.  I’m glad we did (thanks Mark!!!).

Hematology Oncology – August 31, 2011

Our very best wishes for health are sent out to those patients at Hematology Oncology in Westville, Indiana who will use these chemo hats.  We are continually touched that we can possibly provide a bright spot for somebody out there in this big beautiful world.  Good health to you all!
