Snow in October?????

On Sunday, we went back to Central Dupage Hospital for the Neonatal Intensive Care Reunion. It was such a special day!!! It was hard to walk back into the hospital because it brought back a lot of the feelings and fears we had everyday, but once we got to the party, it was quite a celebration of amazing babies! The cafeteria was full of healthy, beautiful children!!!! Rob and I commented many times on how amazing the kids look...some kids had been coming back for 13 years! They had music, play areas, crafts, food, and presents!!! We got to see Abigail's nurses and doctors..and they got to see her! Everyone was so amazed at how big she is! It was a great time! We look forward to going back and celebrating every year.


The moms and babies!!! Do you know that combined, these 4 babies didn't even weigh 10 lbs altogether when they were born????? Crazy!

Abigail and Luca...we are so in love with him!!!!

Monday we went to the pumpkin patch...and it was COLD! Here is how Abigial went to the Pumpkin Patch!!!! We saw the kids that I used to teach (they were there on a field trip). They were so excited to see Abigail! Then we met Cari, Mae, Nathan and Renee, Alex, and Jake! My favorite part was the hot chocolate and apple cider donut!!!
When we got home, it was Snowing!!!! Crazy!!! Abigail loved to watch the snow and wanted to catch it through the window!!!
