Miracles

The power of prayer...

our miracle in a quiet moment!!!

Doesn't the Lord make beautiful babies!!!

Since this is a blog about a miracle, we thought we would ask for prayers for another miracle, please read the request below and pray for Laura, Joe, Pop and the rest of the family.

From our dear family-member/friend Laura Roberts:

Dear Friends,

I am writing to you to let you know of a struggle that Joe, his family and I are dealing with. 3 weeks ago tomorrow (Wednesday), Joe's dad fell and broke his hip. He was in a lot of pain , but doing as well as could be expected until Sunday the 9th. He developed problems in his lungs - they were working at 20% capacity so was sent to ICU and put on a respirator.

After two VERY long weeks, Pop finally seemed to be improving. Yesterday, he was off the respirator and even spoke to us. He knew who we were. We felt like things were FINALLY improving.

However, today they had to put him back on the respirator. He will have a feeding tube put into his stomach in the morning and they will put in a traec on Thursday morning. They have him HEAVILY sedated again. This was a MAJOR emotional setback for all of us.

That's why I'm sending you, my friends, this e-mail. We don't know what God has in store for Pop. I'm just asking that you will pray for us and Joe's family and Pop. None of us want him to suffer and it's difficult to think about letting him go, but we're trying to accept that God may want him to come home.

Thank you so much for reading this but even more, thank you for keeping us in your prayers - we really need them.

Theres a New Sheriff in Town and he is 9 months old!!!

Well Joey is 9 months old believe it or not! He went to the Dr today and he was a perfect angel waving and clapping for everybody- he weighed 21 lbs 3oz,was 28 3/4 inches long and his head is 46.9 cm around....a big head (like his Daddys) measuring 90th percentile and the rest of him measuring in the 70th percentile. Joey's top teeth are still giving us troubles and he has a huge blood blister on his gums right now..... please pray they break through soon, the entire Zanoni household needs SLEEP!!!!

Finally after much research and consideration (and some test runs) we decided to give Joey a chocolate Easter Bunny and he LOVED IT!!!!!! Believe it or not he also slept the best he had in a whole month...must be the chocolate endorphins.

Where should I start??


The ears of course!

This pic is cute and you can really see his new teeth, also the nose crinkle is a new very cute and adorable thing he has started when he wants to be funny.

Happy Easter Everybody!
