Kamber's Birthday

Happy Birthday Kamber! Tuesday would have been her 3rd birthday. Jen planned a really special party. We all went to the cemetery and met at Kamber's grave. They brought pink and purple balloons and little note cards with pink and purple hearts on them. Everyone wrote a little note to Kamber and tied it to their balloon. Then we sent them all off towards heaven. Jen had a special white balloon that she sent off. After that they had pizza and cake back at their house. It was alot of fun! I thought it would be a sad day, and I'm sure some parts were for Jen and Ethan but it all felt ok somehow. Kamber is happy and I know that.

Kamber's grave

I've been thinking about what we could do for Kamber's birthday pretty much since the day she passed away. I had a bunch of different ideas but none of them were working out. I happend to mention some of my ideas to my friend Katie and she said that Brad (her husband) could do something if I wanted. So this is what we did. He printed a picture of Kamber onto a blanket. It turned out so beautiful! He did an amazing job. Thank you Brad!

Happy Birthday sweet Kamber! We hope your first birthday in heaven was amazing. Know that your family and friends still think about you and miss you every day!

Lana Crane Has Arrived!
















Janae, James and Jackson welcomed their little sweetheart Lana into their arms yesterday at 12:17 Pm. She is absoulutly beautiful! Long eyelashes and lots of dark hair. She weighed 8.2 and was 20 1/2 inches long. Everything went really well, both Janae and Lana are doing wonderful and will be heading home tomorrow morning. I was able to be there for the birth and I loved it. It was so amazing! She is such a sweetheart. I stayed the night with Janae so James could go home and be with Jackson. Janae and I were talking about how weird it is that she's here. A few hours earlier she was a bump in Janae's stomach. I said it's funny how the day before no one new if Lana was sad, or happy. Or if went to the bathroom or needed food. But now she makes the littlest sound and we're up checking on her. If she frowns she hug her to make her feel better. She is so so so sweet, I've spent a lot of time with her, but I never get tired of just staring at her. I can't wait to get back to the hospital tonight, I miss her already. Congratulations Janae and James! I'm so happy and thankful that I was able to be there and expeirience Lana's entrance to the world!
