Trevor

Please continue to pray for our neighbor, Trevor. He is only 7 years old and he was just diagnosed with aplastic anemia 2 months ago. He is taking alot of medicines. He is getting alot of plasma and blood transfusions. He is not able to go to school because he has to stay away from large crowds. He has gained 22 pounds since he started the steroids. PLease pray that it is in God's Will that Trevor begin to produce the white blood cells, red blood cells and platelets on his own.

Here is a picture of Ryan and Trevor today. He tires very easily. All the kids got to play in the court today because it was a beautiful day. It is hard to believe it is December and almost Christmas. Where is the snow?

A friend of theirs is having a fundraiser for him to help with medical expenses and to show him support. This is from their caring bridge site.

ATTENTION!!!!!ATTENTION!!!!!ATTENTION!!!!
Molly Frogge, a friend of mine, has ordered silicone bracelets for Trevor. This will be a fundraiser for him. They are red and white to represent the red and white blood cells. They read: Together 4 Trevor on one side and Phil. 4:13 on the other side. If anyone would like to order these bracelets, you may contact me (davisl5@gcsnc.com), Molly Frogge (froggerx4@yahoo.com) or Tory Rule (trule@triad.rr.com). The price is $3.00 for each bracelet. They may also be shipped to you for an additional $1.00. You may also write a check. Make checks out to Leslie Davis. In the memo line put: Trevor Davis Fund
I would love to see people wearing these bracelets to help support Trevor and get him through this hard time. Together 4 Trevor

Christmas Party at School-No school til January.

Look at the tree Ryan's Kindergarten class made. The presents underneath were for the book swap they did. Other presents under the tree were an awesome angel that the kids made for their parents.

Here is the snack I made for the party. It came out of Dec issue of Family Fun magazine.

Look at precious Evan in the background. He is happy even though he didn't get a reindeer cookie.

Ryan said "Come on Mommy...stop taking pictures and come help me!"


They all made a felt stocking. Even little brother Jack did.


Little Brothers, Jack and Evan had fun at the Kindergarten party too.

One of the other Mom's read some stories.

They played "Little Elf, Little Elf, Where Are you?" Ryan got to be the 1st elf to hide.

Looking back.

Here is Evan in the NICU 1 year ago today on 17 Dec 2007.

We are truly blessed.

He is a miracle.

Just some cute photos of Evan this week

Jack's 1st Visit to the Dentist

Jack went to the dentist today. His favorite thing was when the hygienist was using the suction thing that looks like a straw. He got the biggest kick out of that. He would close his mouth on it and it would make a funny noise. He also liked picking out 2 prizes and getting a new toothbrush.

The dentist told us we need to work on getting rid of the paci by the time he is 4. We got rid of Ryan's paci when he was 3. We took it to the hospital to give it to the babies. It was very easy. He didn't give us a fight.

Jack is giving us a fight. We are not being very forceful about taking it because we don't want Jack to give up naps. I should rephrase that. I don't want Jack to stop taking naps. What difference does it make to Chad? He isn't here during the day.

When Ryan got rid of his paci-he got rid of naps. Naps are very important around here. It is very nice that 2 out of the 3 boys take long naps. I don't want to mess up a good thing...but then again....if we don't fight this fight....we are looking at high orthodontic bills in our future.

Our Gingerbread House

After making the house..they were told to go to bed. The look on their faces says it all. These are little boys that do NOT want to go to bed. They are NOT very happy.

Their "elf" Joey that reports back to Santa every night to give him a report about their behavior was watching the whole scenario. I wrote a letter for Joey to give to Santa tonight when he goes to the North Pole. It was all about Ryan and Jack not listening lately. Ryan was very sad about it. He wanted to rip the letter up.

I thought he was in bed but apparantly he was up writing a letter to Santa too for Joey to take.

If you can't read what he wrote..

it says: "I am saree thet I ded the rog theg."

translated...

"I am sorry that I did the wrong thing."

Oh my goodness.....how precious is that?

Santa Visit #2

We went to see Santa again today. Every year he arrives on a fire truck. Our first visit with Santa was at Ryan's school. Today, Ryan told Santa that he wants a "game thing." Hmmm....what is a "game thing?" Jack wants a Lambourghinni(sp?)

The boys visit Santa

Naughty or Nice? Hmmmmmmmm?
