Update on Baby Allie

We went to Cook Children's to see Allie on Friday night (this is my sister and brother in law's neice). She is doing well and was smiling and happy when we first got there. A nurse came in and she didn't like that very much and she got tired pretty quickly so we didn't stay very long. Her daddy and big brother had just arrived to spend the weekend and she was happy they were there. She is accepting chemo pretty well and hasn't lost any hair yet and she was very alert, happy and sweet as usual. Keep praying for her and this family as they have a few more weeks in the hospital here and away from home. God has already been good just providing the family with their needs day to day and blessing them as they see Allie doing better than what was first thought. We know God is the healer, so we ask Him to heal baby Allie.

Friday we also went to see Butterflies in the Garden at the FW Botanical Gardens. It was really fun, saw many different kinds of butterflies and each had our favorites. Took some good pics (will share later). Saturday night we ate at the Purple Cow with Morgan and her daddy. We had never been there before and it was pretty good - the girls got to sit at the bar next to our booth which they enjoyed. After dinner we went to Casa to see "Junie B. Jones" It was very cute! The girls enjoyed it but so did the adults. Of course, Saturday night was "spring forward" so we were dragging in on Sunday morning but made up for it with a Sunday afternoon nap. We are all looking forward to Spring Break! I am hoping for some Spring weather and a chance to read "Someday" the new Karen Kingsbury book from the Baxter family series. Can't wait! I'll let you know.

I agree, Someday is great. i couldn't put it down (which didn't help the schoolwork situation much). Look forward to seeing butterfly pics soon.
