Either it's spring fever or craft fever, but either way I'm feeling creative again so I'm updating the blog layout. Please excuse our "dust" as I upload and change the look of R.B.'s site.

Also, I'd like to ask you again to please keep baby Stellan in your prayers. His little heart is battling and continues to tolerate the SVT, but they really want to see his heart respond to the medication and break out of it into a regular rhythm. Please also pray for his mother who has without fail been by his side, sleeping in hospital conference rooms for a week now, comforting her son and fighting for what he needs. I can't imagine having to watch Riley go through what she has had to watch her poor baby go through.

***Please keep praying for baby Stellan. The little man is a fighter and has battled through some scary moments. His heart continues to remain in SVT for the most part, but they have had some periods of normal rhythm.***

Riley LOVES climbing the stairs! For a long time she could only go up, but lately she has been teaching herself how to get down. She has two methods for getting down the steps...

Method 1: SCOOT. Scooting entails sliding down each step slowly and landing on her bottom with a loud giggle.

Scoot step 1.


Scoot step 2.


Scoot step 3. YAY!


Method 2: Walk! She grabs the railing for safety and tries to step/hop down each step. This one scares Mommy, but she wants to be a big girl so badly!

Steady now.


Easy does it!


Then we rest.

Please Pray

Most of you that follow my blog know that I am a follower of MckMama. She is a mother of four and her most recent child, Stellan is well known among mommy bloggers as the miracle baby. Long story, (but so worth reading) made short, Stellan was diagnosed by doctors in the womb with severe heart complications and they gave him "no chance of survival". His mother was strongly urged to terminate the pregnancy, but chose to carry him to term. Through God's grace Stellan was born 4 months ago completely healthy and has been a thriving member of their family ever since.

Unfortunately, Stellan came down with the "ick" over the weekend and after being admitted to the hospital for a fever and respiratory problems was administered a drug that sent him into tachycardia. So far his heart has been unable to stabilize itself. Please pray for this little baby and for his family.
