Family Fun!


Miss Ayla received many visitors this weekend for the Stephenson Reunion- she was quite the popular "attraction"..... haa haa. It was viewings through the back door for the kiddo's! It's amazing how much she is growing and how strong she is becoming- we love our little miracle!

Quick update: I went back to work very part time from 2-5pm, enough to escape the house for a bit and keep my food benefits. It's been fun to dress up and head into work for a few hours and feel productive. Ayla is already a full-time job....but it's nice to re-connect with co-workers and friends. To make this possible, Ryan (who is the awesomest husband and father EVER) adjusted his work hours so that he could be home in time for me to head off to work. We have applied for Respite Care and if that is approved, I will work half-days and leave Ayla with an RN for a few additional hours.
We are waiting on Zoey's headstone to arrive- any day now! It's taking awhile because we wanted a picture of her on the stone. Right now there is a flower and small windmill marking her gravesite. Little Zoey! We miss you!!

Glad to see your family is doing so well. That is a funny picture of all the kids peeking at her through the door! Sorry i haven't been in touch more, glad everyone is healthy and happy for the moment! Josh
