Ella needs your Prayers.....
Please say a prayer for our little Ella today. She is going to have an MRI today to check her brain due to some twitching she has been having. Please pray it is a temporary side effect and that there is not permanent damage. I am going up to sit with Andrea as she is VERY scared for her baby girl right now. The MRI is scheduled around 3:00 p.m. today. Please continue to pray for this family as it is still a long road to get Ella where she needs to be. Thank you all for your continued love and support- Sara




Ella had a great day today. We went to her Developmental Pediatrician today and did GREAT! She actually, really suprised me. She progressed to 10.3 months old in language skills and 9 months on visual motor skills. Her head circumfrence has even grown, which is a good sign...a really good sign. She's been pulling up to stand on everything and has been doing really well. Today was a wonderful day. Here are some pictures:
