See Kaiya's eye ?? God has been SO good to us. I don't know why we got to have a miracle when so many don't, but I am so grateful. The eye isn't tracking with the other yet, but it IS all the way open and I believe the rest will follow. It is a month ago tomorrow that she got sick. We have come a long way!I truly believe your prayers are what got us where we are. THANK YOU!

We are staying at my sisters right now during some construction at our house. Ava is in LOVE with her four cousins and my sister. (Lindy Mommy) A few pics from our time.
Wonder where she learned about cell phones??

Screaming: "BYE MAMA, LOVE YOU"

Playing on the stairs with Cole... (seriously, I have found toys to be useless)

And with Aidan...

Big eye!

Ava: Hold Kaiya, Mama

Mama: Ok, Ava.

And this is how it ended. (amazing how much her eye has changed just since these were taken on the 4th)

And the video: I have never uploaded a video of Ava on this blog ever. So, because my friend Ali constantly asks for it, I posted a little snippet of classic Ava. She is quite obsessed with being dirty as you will see. That's from Mark's Mom, not me! :)
(P.S.-she has green pj's that say COZY across them...she started referring to all pajamas from there on as "cozy". We support anything that makes bedtime sound more appealing!)

Oh my gosh, that video of Ava is SO CUTE! You are lucky you live so far away from us or I would come steal her from you. ;) She is so sweet! I love her little voice... 'no!'. I'm so thankful for Kaiya's eye - she's a strong little girl and we'll keep praying that God allows her to have perfect tracking and vision in time. She's come so far!

What an answer to prayer! We are thrilled to see both Kaiya's big, beautiful eyes open wide. Praise God! It was fun to see new pics of both the girls and I loved the video of Ava. So cute and totally reminds me of conversations we have with Clare! :)
Love the pictures and am so happy about Kaiya's eye! What an answer to prayer! :)
Such a cute video! I'm so glad I got to spend time with you all last week. I wish I had video of Ava randomly yelling "Abby!" while eating her dinner :) Kaiya's eye looks fabulous! We serve an amazing God!
What an answer to prayer - thank you, Lord! That first pic of you and Kaiya is adorable, and that video was hilarious...Will got a kick out of it, too. He could use a little help on the vocab front...perhaps Ava can call him on her phone and help a guy out??? Blessings to you & your beautiful family!
That video is priceless!
I'm so glad Kaiya is better!
Oh Dear Heidi and Mark, What an answer to prayer- Tom and I are praying for you daily and you all look great. What an unthinkable circumstance you have endured (are enduring) and your unshakable faith is a blessing to all of us. It has strengthened all of us joining you in prayer to a God who goes through EVERYTHING with us. With love, Tom and Julie E.
Wow, Kaiya's eye looks great!! I love the progressive pictures that end with the girls screaming. The video is so cute....made me smile.
