About Me

Hi I’m Jen- I'm one lucky lady to be married to the most wonderful man, Jason. I am a mother to three beautiful children, Grant, Norah, who was born with hydrocephalus, and Mason. I love spending my time with my family. I also like to challenge myself with new things. I'm on a constant quest to become more organized, it may never happen but it's a dream. I currently work part-time as a RN in an emergency department. I love this journey of life that I am on with God by my side, knowing that all things are possible when you Believe.

Walk-y, Walk-y, Walk-y (as Norah says)

Post have been sporadic lately. Life is busy with three kids, 3 years and younger!! But a time out was called today, for today was momentous! Today Norah was walking in therapy. That's right, better yet I had the camera with us to record some of this real walking.


But this was a one time event today, she did it a second time.


And if that wasn't enough for you (it wasn't for me!!) here is Norah doing that walking thing again!!!


That's Emily in the vidoes with Norah, she's Norah's PT. Emily can get Norah to move, and we are thankful for her. While Norah isn't yet walking independently, after months of a plateau in gross motor skill development, the last two weeks she has made huge strides. Norah has been doing great the last few weeks, no off days, and we can see some great development taking place. I guess Mom knows best, the developmental team said to take a break, we pushed on and God is good!

Congrats mom and Norah. I remember when Katana made the monumental move toward walking. Now at the age of 5 I sometimes wish I could slow her down a little. :)

Wow that is so cool! Perhaps now cayman will watch norah's walking videos for a little motivation and inspiration for a change. That norah, she will not be needing that walker at all very soon. That walking was amazing!
