Well we have been home for a month, and what a month! We did make it in time for the twins birthday - or should I say birthdays! We had 2 small parties but you would never know it by all the gifts they received! We are very excited to let you all know that Bella is doing much better at home. She is talking a lot, eating a little and trying to figure out how Dax is able to move around and she can't. But we are working on it - she has physical therapy twice a week and speech therapy for eating twice a week. Next week we have a swallow function test, this will help us know what Bella can safely eat, and how we can move forward with her therapy. Dax is not walking just yet, but we think it will be any day now... he pulls up on everything, but just won't take the chance to let go and see what happens. Below are some recent photos, I am sure we will have more to share soon - hope you are all doing well and thank you for your continued prayers and help!
Love David, Lisa, Dax and Bella

Dax may be a soccer player and baseball player!

Time for cake!

I don't like this hat!

I like to make the horn honk

Our Anniversary Night out - George Strait was GREAT!

Hmm - Spaghetti o's are pretty good!

Bella before we came home - going for a walk around the hospital - she can't go outside on ozone days so we were limited to our floor unless a nurse could go with us.


This is one of Dax's Favorite toys... he also loves to give you this look when he wants something and you are busy or say no.

Bella's first hair bow - again, just before we came home. Amazing to see how well she was doing there, but wait til you see her now! She has more cheeks than Dax ever did!
