Hope is sick...Again!

Mira is our bright spot.  She's full of smiles and wonderful gurgles and coo's.


Below you can see Hope with an absolutely beautiful smile on her face.  She's actually having a seizure in this pic and that smile was frozen in place for quite a while.  She's on her second day of puking and she's still vomitting up a lot of dark brown bloody puke.  She's having a variety of seizures, some more intense than we've seen in the past.  The couch is her home until she recovers enough to be moved.


Ashley is having more calm moments, with some minor moaning that stops when we pick her up.  Her seizures have become very intense and some involve full body shaking which result in extreme exhaustion.  She's sleeping a lot more, and I'm not sure how this will work out for school.  She's supposed to go back to school tommorrow afternoon.


Brodie is active and happy.  Alex helped him build this snow fort in our backyard.  It's been well used, for sure!  The plan is to add a second story.  We might as well call it a snow house!  You can see Brodie and Savannah in front.
