We are so thankful for our friends and family this Christmas Season and all year round. Dave, Anson and I have an amazing network of friends that we cherish and our family that has been supportive, caring and generous. We thank God for all of you and hope you have a wonderful holiday and Happy New Year.

Love,

Update

Anson had his Synagis injection today and weighed in at 19 lbs. 10 ozs. I went ahead and switched him to his front facing car seat and he loves it! He got pictures taken today for Christmas and they turned out wonderful! We're all just trying to get ready for Christmas and I'm enjoying this break from school!

Prayer Request

I am not going to send out a vast email to everyone explaining what Dave and our family is going though right now (really, are any of us THAT important), but I would like for all of you to please keep us in your prayers that we get some good news these next few days.

Thank You,

Dave, Christina and Anson

Once in a Lifetime

Okay, I'm still shaking over a chance meeting today. Here's what happened. My friends, Anson and I were at Outback Steakhouse in Columbus after Christmas shopping this evening. Normal dinner. Nothing spectacular. As we were leaving, James Laurinaitis of The OSU Buckeyes walked in the door! No, Britt, I am am NOT JOKING. I had Anson's pictures taken today with his very special football that is signed by several Buckeye players. I just so happened to have it in car from pictures! Yes, I had it signed by Laurinaitis and Anson got to meet him. It was AMAZING! I still can't believe it. WOW!!!!

Waffles and Grilled Cheese!

I couldn't resist posting these pictuers. I use to do this very same thing in my highchair! So, Anson has discovered waffles and grilled cheese (hold the crust, Mom!) and he loves them.

Look at that face!

1 Year Today

I can't believe that it has been one year since Anson came home from the hospital. That day was terrifying as much as it was happy for me. Putting him in his car seat, hoping his oxygen saturation would be stable the whole ride home......scary. Now, he's healthy and absolutely amazing every single day to me. His smile, his funny faces, his laugh. Everything about him is pure joy for me. I thank God for him. I thank God that we went to OSU for his birth and the team of Doctors and Nurses that worked so hard for us. I thank God for so much.

Ohio State is Heading to the BCS!!!!
