On May 10, 2006, at only 6 months old, Sophie was diagnosed with Infantile Spasms...a RARE and CATASTROPHIC form of epilepsy. She continues to battle this disorder on a daily basis. Only after she had the majority of her left hemisphere of her brain removed (on May 29, 2009) has she had a relief in seizures (though she continues to show spiking in her EEG). She has shown much improvement in development since the surgery.

He is beautiful....and you look so happy! Congratulations. Please let me know what you will be calling him so I can make him something! Jen
Welcome Little Charlie!! Congrats!! Looks like a party there. Can't wait to see what the girls think. Seems like he's got some good sized feet.....all the better to run with when his big sisters try to get a hold of him.
Dear Elaine and Brandon,Congratulations on the birth of Charlie! He looks wonderful and I don't know if you could have a bigger smile! I am thrilled to read of Sophie's amazing progress after surgery. Praise be to God!I look forward to seeing your growing family and meeting Charlie. With best wishes,Miss DeniseParents as Teachers
Elaine...How can you look so beautiful so quickly? Just look at all of you! I am THRILLED that all went well for you and little Charlie! Charles is Colby's first name (after my Daddy), so I must say, the name couldn't be more perfect....He looks so mich like Sophie!!!
Enjoy these days....They go by WAY too quick...Seems like just yesterday that my Shawn-Michael and Colby were that little!!! And there is something EXTRA special about boys and their mothers....TRULY!!! And now that Miss Sophie has had HER miracle, y'all can REALLY begin to celebrate!!!
Congrats!!! So happy you are all doing great. Can't wait to meet him! We needed some more boys in the neighborhood to balance out all the little girls we have!!
You don't know me, but our daughter has IS so I have been reading your blog. I love the name of your son! We have a 5 month old named Charlie and Henry was second on our name list :) Cute names, Congrats again Kelli
What a precious little boy!!! I'm soooo happy for you guys! Nobody deserves it more that you! I know I've been slacking on my blogging and blog-reading for that matter. But I promise to update soon.
