Brenna had her last tball game Sat., Bryson's team won 1st place so they will be going to the city tourney.. how exciting! He loves the game and this is the first year he is old enough to advance. So much fun!! Also, we just signed him up for track.. crazy I know. He first started track last year and he loves it. I'm telling you, this boy LOVES sports, all sports. We are not those parents that pressures their child.. he loves it, so we are more than happy to support it. I have never heard of such small children running track until last year when we were introduced to it. It is pretty much the real deal.. he wins ribbons, medals, and all! These small kids even do high jump and long jump.. Bryson passes on those.. he likes the running (sprints). I will update and tell you more about this later.
GIVE-A-WAY
I have recently been contacted by Kaye, owner of Engraved Euniques. She wanted to offer a Bentley tile to make and offer to her customers in hopes to help Bentley, she is even going to give one away (more about this below)! Below is the finished tile.. it's just beautiful!! We love it!! Bentley's tile is now available and ready for purchase.. Kaye is so kind to donate 10% monthly of all sales from Bentley's tile to Bentley's medical fund! Isn't that awesome. We are blown away by people stepping up and going out of their way to contact us in hopes to help Bentley. If you decide to purchase a Bentley tile, it will look just as the picture does below, only it will contain your child's birth information. Have I mentioned how amazing this quote is? I couldn't describe Bentley any better myself!
Now about the give-a-way... one person will receive one Bentley tile personalized with your child's birth information. To enter.. all you have to do is go to her website Engraved Euniques and pick out your favorite tile.. then come back here.. leave a comment and let me know which is your favorite tile. It can be any one from her site. That's it.. once you have left your comment you will be entered in the give-a-way. I will announce the winner on Friday... so you have until Thursday night to enter.
What great news! She looks so happy!!! Am so happy for all of you. Praying for continued success. What a sweet idea with the tile. Kaye is such a sweetheart. Blessings to you all!

ReplyDeleteI am so glad to hear she is doing well. She is so precious. The tiles are so unique. How could I not love the Stellan tile? I think the font that his name is in is so neat. I also like the family tiles with the last name on them. I just might have to order one! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI am so happy to see that Bentley is continuing to get better everyday and continuing to amaze you with her strength! What a cutie she is! How exciting for Brysons team! Good Luck to them as well!

Bentley is doing wonderful and she looks cute as a button still-->but I figured her cuteness wouldn't go anywhere--not with those chunky adorable cheeks!!!
ReplyDeleteHope all is well sweetie! I haven't really had much time on the computer with things so hetic, but I try to keep updated with your blog, just know I am praying for Bentley and your family continiously...GOD IS SO AMAZING!!!!!

ReplyDeleteBentley's tile is so sweet and I also liked the baby "hot pink" tile and also the baby harper tile as it is so true to our situation as we tried (and prayed) for 6 years to have a baby and our prayers were answered and we now have a 7 month old little girl.
Your family continues to be in my prayers.

What a wonderful idea you have come up with. I am so glad that Bentley is doing so well and reaching new milestones during what should be a time that wears her down. Bentley is showing everyone out that just how strong she is and how prayer does work.
ReplyDeleteI personally fell in love with "Baby Harper" I think even if I don't win it, I will be purchasing it. It has a verse that I used so many times after finding out I was pregnant with Landon.

ReplyDeleteThe tile that Kaye made for Bentley is awesome. I have always loved her tiles since I've seen them on Angie Smith and Kelly's blogs. My favorite tile is the Family Tile with Joshua 24:15. That verse really sums up how we feels as a family.
Hope you enjoyed your birthday yesterday. Talk to you later!
I like "Home is where the heart is."

Congratulations on such a strong little girl. I check your blog site daily and I just love to see that she is improving. She is such a doll. I absolutally loved the picture of her screaming at the check up. It was too cute. She looked like she was giving a piece of her mind. I really like the tiles. I am so glad you shared them with us. They are so nice and are reasonable. They will make great gifts. I especially love the " why worry" tile. Thanks for sharing your weet baby's life with us.
ReplyDeleteHi! My name is Amanda DeBruler and my daughter, Trista, also has Tetralogy of Fallot. Like Bentley, she was supposed to have her surgery around 6-9 months of age, but Trista had another plan of her own. On March 11, 2009 Trista had her 1st open heart surgery at only 12 days old and 4 pounds. So, I completely know where you are and what you've been through. I have been following your journey and it all sounds so familiar. Trista is doing well now. She is 3 months old and starting to grow - she's up to 8.12 now!! :)
ReplyDeleteWe also have a blog, but it is down right now because we are redesigning it - www.tristafaith.blogspot.com. If it's ok, I would love to add your Bentley prayer button to our site. Just let me know if that is ok. Trista will have a button soon - it's still being designed. All of this blogging stuff is so new to me!
I love, love, love the Bentley tile. What a neat give-away!
How wonderful that she is doing so well! Its amazing to see these little ones bounce back so quickly from something so difficult!
ReplyDeleteI love Bentley's tile, too! It speaks volumes about all children... such a big miracle in such a little girl (or boy:0))! All of her work is wonderful - too many choices!
Praying Bentley's recovery continues to be swift & easy!
I'm glad to hear that Bentley is doing great! I love the Bentley tile.
ReplyDeleteCrystal - bentley is absolutely beautiful and Jesus just shines forth from her little body! I am so thankful that God reached down and touched your precious little girl and I pray that His healing power will continue to be manifest in her heart.

Beth
Hey Crystal! I am so glad to hear that Bentley is doing so well!!
ReplyDeleteI didn't realize that she and Brice were only 8 days apart (he was born 8/28/08)!?!
