Good morning Uncle Tonkin..

It was indeed such a sad day when we heard of the chopper crash and all of our loved ones who were lost and injured in the crash. Mommy and Nana cried and said they continue to try and understand why such evil is in our world today. All of those young men and women were so brave and trying to help people they don't even know.

Last night, my mommy had tears running down her face as we prayed for everyone, and especially the soldiers, and their families. God has welcomed them home.

Thank you for reminding us that Freedom is not Free. When I get big, Mommy and Daddy and Nana will help me to understand and be proud of our great nation. And if necessary, to fight for freedom. Our prayers are that someday, all of this will end and men will live in peace together.

I love you too Uncle Tonkin.

Dear TT,
We just got home from spending a weekend "away".
Saw the terrible news ourselves yesterday.
All I could do was cry and hold my own hubby and try not to think about what "could have been".
You tell your mommy that I cry too. All of the time..
Like your Uncle Tonk said...I pray that when you are big their are not these kind of things in the world..but I too, think that it is a false hope.
I will pray for you that you will have the same strength that your momma has and your nana too!

We are all so blessed to be a part of this thread.

Thanks to Nana and BG and TC for all they do to keep us involved!
Love to you little one...

I'm "filling in" tonight to post the update and pics.
I was sent a ping list for Baby Logan plus I'm using my ping list.
So if you had me remove you from my list before you are being pinged because you are on Logan's list.
Please post your replies to Texas Termite.
I have it on good authority that he reads ALL the posts.
LOGAN UPDATE AND PICS


Hi everybody...

Just a quick update on the Termite. He went to the pulmonary doctor today and he is doing pretty good. His oxygen sat rate is at 87% and it has to be at least 92% to be taken off of the canula, so he has a way to go yet. But he's getting there!

Logan now weighs 7 lbs. 4 oz. and he's 19" long! Quite a spurt for the little guy. He also had 2 first today..........................

He was given apple juice and he LOVES it! He finished off 2 oz. so fast we had to keep taking the nipple from him so he could breathe :) It's a milestone for the little guy to already being given something besides his milk. He did well with it and it didn't upset his tummy at all.

The other wonderful thing that happened was that when his mommy kissed his neck as she always does, he turned his head and opened his mouth to her cheek like little ones do when they "kiss" back. She and I both cried with joy! Her first kiss from Logan :)

This coming Friday he has an eye appointment to check and see how that's going. I do know that he sees. He watches lights, can follow you as you move around the room, etc. But because he does have mild ROP, we have to stay on top of that.

Our baby is progressing so well. His little lungs are still a big problem, but we knew that and hopefully in time, they will develop and leave him strong and healthy.

Our prayers continue for all of our friends, both those in need and our prayers of thanks to all of you.

A special thank you for Uncle Tonkin for stepping up and posting the pictures and update for us this time. Aren't friends and family great???

Stay safe, and God bless you all......

Logan's Nana



First Kiss


Not dribbling much!


I love this apple juice!


Yea! I got me a bear!


Thank You God for the miracle that you let us witness.
I love you baby Logan!
Uncle Tonkin
