Preemie Awareness Month

Hello Friends and Family

November is preemie awareness month.

Give thanks to the Lord and proclaim his greatness, let the whole world know what he has done. Sing to him, sing his praises. Tell everyone about his miracles~I Chronicles 16:8-9


Me and my family are collecting pennies for preemies, we plan to collect them up to two weeks before Christmas. At that time we will cash them in and then go buy gifts for the preemie families who are spending Christmas in the NICU. We will be making the donation to Baylor Dallas NICU as that is where Bella was at. We are also taken any kind of donations be it preemies cloths, toys, gift cards for the parents to have a nice dinner or snack foods.

We will be at Winnie & Tulule’s Christmas open house on Friday November 26th from 5-9pm taken donations.





For those who do not know our story our daughter Bella was born March 12, 2009 at 23 weeks 5 days weight 15oz and 10 inches. We spent 5 months in the NICU.

We had a lot of support from blogger friends who did a fundraiser for us during those 5 months that we could not even beginning to repay or say Thank you enough too.

Now we would like to be able to give back to other’s who are going through a difficult time this year.

Thank you for your time. Hope everyone has a safe and happy holiday season this year.

It's Offical

I got my donation button added!!! Let the donations begin. Any donation between now and the Christmas open house will be entered into a drawing to win mystery prices.
We are just starting off so our prices are nothing big like a color TV but would like to make this fundraiser a little fun for everyone with some random giveaways. No idea when things will be given away or even what will be given away.
Please don't forget that November is not only a time to be thankful for what we have but also Preemie Awareness Month, there are a lot of great preemie organizations that need help.
Thank you for your support.

Happy FaBOOlous Halloween

My little family.. by Foto Fabulous
Hope everyone had a safe and happy Halloween. Bella was a busy busy girl this weekend. We got up early Saturday and head to the pumpkin patch to have family pictures made by a really talented photographer. She is so great with kids, Brandon was so relaxed and well Bella is CRAZY walking so it was hard to keep her still long enough to take pictures of her. I just knew we would end up with picture of just the three or two or one of us but none of Bella. And Melissa being a FA-BOO-lous photographer sent me the most wonderful pictures. Could not ask for a better treat for Halloween than to have pictures of my little family.



Bella Last year.......
This year.. I got this shirt idea took it to have the Fa-lous! put on and added the BOO. I think she was adorable in her Fa-BOO-lous outfit.

Not to brag but I love this picture I think she is just gorgeous in this picture.
My boys aren't they handsome. This will be going on our wall at home.
