Tad and Lily---- SOS

Meet two of Ivey's most favorite toys on this Earth.  The other is her music cube.  Three toys of preference and the girl likes what she likes - that's it!!  

 However, we have had Tad and Lilyfor several years now and they are finally at their bittersweet end.  She has killed them from playing them so much.  I cannot find them ANYWHERE!!!  So if you have these stashed in the attic somewhere - please send them our way!!  Or if you magically run across them somewhere get them
and I will pay you back. 

These are the small ones that can hang and you just push their little tummies to hear them. 

It took a few years to teach Ivey how to find their tummies to play them all by herself. It took lots of work.  Now I have tried every similar toy out there - she just ignores them or tosses them.  So please help me find these sweet toys!!!   They make her so happy.

I did a quick search on Amazon and found them, just search Learn-along Leap/Lily. Hope that helps and I hope you find some new ones to replace the ones that Ivey has loved to death :)

BEAUTIFUL GREEN EYES........

Submitting to Lack of Control

When Ivey was a baby, I literally had drawers and spaces in her closet labeled, everything had a space, a place.  One special friend loved showing off Ivey's closet to newbies coming by for a visit. This level of organization mystified my friend. Secretly, I wanted to go back to haphazardness.  Justifying why I did this is simple.  At the time, I had friends helping me with my laundry, as were my mom and some night nurses.  With so many people, I found it more efficient, for all of us, to label everything.  No one had to search or guess where things belonged.   This approach to find order has only amplified with time. I have come to accept that being Ivey's mom has brought out a controlling aspect in my personality. For the record, I have always found peace in order and organization.  It could be described as controlling, maybe.  Ivey ramped up my need for order. On her hard days, or in times leading up to what I know will be hard, my need for order raises it’s merciless head. 

Ivey Elizabeth Sirmans

Ivey Elizabeth Sirmans was born Tuesday April, 25th at 5:26 a.m. She weighed 5 lbs 11 oz and is 17 inches long. She has beautiful long fingers and toes like Gwen, and her hair is dark like Matt's. She loves to be touched and is happiest when she is being held. Ivey is a strong little one who is breathing on her own. Her strength is a blessing as she will face some challenges in the future. The initial genetic testing showed Ivey has a partial deletion of chromosome 21. There are many tests pending, and as we find out more, we will let everyone know those results. She has a double cleft palate and a cleft lip which will require surgery at some point in the future. She is blind. She has had one hearing test which will be repeated due to the noisy NICU. The aortic valve in her heart has 2 leaflets instead of 3, but despite this, her heart is working wonderfully. Currently, she has a feeding tube in her nose, and she is learning how to nurse from a bottle. Once her feeding is successfu
