we are here...

It has been busy around here! I left my camera battery charging in Longview at my parents house so I can't post any pictures until it gets here! Just wanted to write a mini post. We had a wonderful Christmas with my family and now we are back in Houston. Greg's sister, Diane, and his nephew, Devin, and Kelsey are here for the week. Diane and Devin flew in Sunday from Virginia. Luke is still doing great! His eating is still strong; however, the blisters are in an outbreak right now. His face was healing so well just in time for Christmas (yay!) and now they are getting a little worse. His legs are semi healing. Overall, no complaints for the little guy! He was an angel in Longview charming everyone with his contagious laugh and sweet smiles. I have to brag...I LOVE how smiley he has become! It melts my heart so much. Lindsay made a great point...he is so happy even though he has to feel some pain from time to time with sores on his little body. I pray he stays happy and tough! My mom and dad re-did a bedroom upstairs into a full nursery! (I think it is nicer than ours) I took pics of that to post too. There is not a detail missing. Luke had everything and more to make his stay at his Papaw and Kippy's comfortable. He got a fun exersaucer from Santa! It is so cute to see him play in it even though he is still a little young for it. I also have a mini video of him grabbing at a toy for the first time. This might not sound like a big deal, but we have been concerned because some EB babies don't ever use their hands properly. He is not great at it and still keeps his hands in fists but we are hopeful he will be able to function with his hands. (it is common for them to use both fists to pick up things etc.)

I have a few video's to post later too. Anna got us a Flip Camera for Christmas! (thanks Anna!!!) I am working on getting a video of him laughing. Sorry for a boring post. I will post pics and video soon!

be back soon!
