We made it home!!!! Happy Hammonds Family here! We have got some hugs & licks in with our missed furry family, I have rolled 2 loads of laundry, ran to the grocery store, and watched the girls leap around in joy. Home is our favorite place!

My Worries
Here is what has happened in the last few weeks since learning that Bai has to have her rods removed. So, I last left you knowing that Bailynn’s rods are indeed infected and will have to be removed, but the surgeon wants to wait till at least March. This is to get through cold and… Read More
