Maisie

If you know me or my blog at all, you know that I talk a lot about my dear friend Jennifer. With her permission, I was to post on her blog about Maisie being admitted to the hospital tonight because she has a bad case of RSV. I have tried unsuccessfully to break through the wall and access blogger so for now I'll be posting updates on my blog.
Maisie has been suffering from a bad case of the sniffles and Jennifer's mommy instincts told her it was time to have her checked out. Her doctor looked at the x-rays of little Maisie's lungs and they look clear, but her breathing is labored, her oxygen levels are low, and she's running a high fever (not a typical in RSV). As I type this Maisie is hopefully feeling some relief in the care of the great staff at the hospital where she was born. Having spent three days on the pediatric floor myself during my pregnancy with Julia, I can say first hand, that she is in good hands. The plan is to give her IV fluids, do some deep suctioning, also some nebulizer treatment(s), and monitor her through the night.
Please say a prayer for little Maisie and check back here for updates. Thanks!

  1. Hi Carrie,

    I was on my profile page and clicked on photographer to see where it would take me. I am a photographer also. This is how I found your blog. What caught my attention is the fact that you are a child of the King too! I just had to drop in to say hello. May you and your family have a blessed Christmas as we celebrate the birth of our Savior.

    In His Loving Grace,
    Kathy

  3. I hope she is well soon. I think nebulizer treatments work wonders. I used them for a year with W.W.

    Take care.

"How can I help?"

So many have asked how they can help MckMama and her family during this difficult time and so I've set up a Care Calendar to help coordinate meals for the family. MckMama is coordinating childcare on her end, but you can contact me for the rest. Please leave me a comment in this message and I will contact you with more information on the Care Calendar as soon as I am able. Please be sure I can get in touch with you through your blog and/or an email address. Thank you for covering my dear friend and her family with prayers!

Elsa's Birth Story

The morning of July 1st started out like all the other mornings this summer. The kids let me sleep until 7:30 and then came in to wake me up. We ate breakfast and I started picking up around the house. We had spent the previous day at the town pool and because the heat index was going to be just as high again we made plans to go to our beach. The kids really wanted to practice their swimming skills but I didn't want to have to pay for the pool again. At 8:30 I lost my mucus plug and my brain started running a mile a minute. Could this mean we're getting close? Could I actually go early for a change?I turned to Google and learned that labor could be hours or days away. I feel I should warn you - if you decide to Google mucus plug be prepared to see photographic proof. Why people felt the need to post pictures to Google images is beyond me!  Moving on..... Just in case I ended up being one of the lucky ones who only had hours to wait until labor started I kept up with my clean

Shabby Apple Giveaway!

Spring is in the air and that means it's time to start thinking about changing over our closets from Winter to Spring. I don't know about you, but that also means it's time to look for a few new pieces to bring new life to what I wear year after year. Today I can make that job a little more fun for you because Shabby Apple is sponsoring a giveaway on my blog! Yeah!!!! I had so much fun looking through their collection of women's dresses and don't even get me started on their adorable line of little girl's dresses ! It's a whole new ballgame for me now that I'm going to have TWO girls to dress. In the end I decided to pick this beauty called Azure Coast to giveaway to one lucky reader because us mom's are always buying things for our kids before ourselves. I just might have to pick up one for myself in time to wear for BabyBear's baptism this summer. It's perfect for nursing moms! Want to win one for yourself? See below , but if you d
