Life in Chicagoland

We are in the second year of our internship experience at Willow Creek. During this season of our lives we are attempting to balance Seminary work, caring for a sweet little baby girl and still adjusting to life away from our friends and family. We couldn't be more excited about all that God has in store for us!

This blog will be our attempt to share the struggles and joys of this experience...as well as some pictures and an occasional video. We welcome your feedback and comments and will do our best to keep up with the blog on a regular basis!

Enjoy!
Marc, Keri & Leah

Leah Update

They have taken off the oxygen and also removed the tube that was in her nose for feeding (actually she pulled it out!). Everything is progressing nicely and barring any surprises, Leah will be getting her final dose of antibiotics tomorrow at 5pm and we should be able to take her home soon after! We'll keep you updated. Here are some new pictures to enjoy! Look, no tubes!!

OMG!!!

Sorry Marc. I thought she looked more like you until I just saw that picture of you holding her. She has totally got "Keri's" eyes!

Some of you know what I mean. Go back and look at that picture.

She looks like a "Brigdon" to me - Marcia's mother's family. What do you think, Marcia?
