Wishbone Day Video!

I wanted to share the 2011 Wishbone Day video. Quite a few of our familiy and friends are in it so I thought yall would enjoy. Thank you so much to everyone who helped us remember Noah in this way. We are truly blessed to have so much support. 

One Proud Sister

Monday night Aaron and I were able to go watch the students at Kiowa perform their end of school program. My brother is a freshman this year and sang the lead on Hotel California. I thought he did a great job and wanted to share! Sorry for the shaky camera.

I also thought I would share a favorite video from a few years ago of him performing Les Poissons from Little Mermaid. I crack up every time I watch it. Hope you enjoy!

Wishbone Day 2011

Aaron and I are so so appreciative of everyone who wore yellow today in honor of Noah. We are so blessed to have so many people support us over the past few months. The last count I did there were well over 80 people who wore yellow today in memory of Noah, and those are just the ones we have pictures of. I can't share all of the photos on here but I will share the ones of us. We love you all!


Update: Last count over 100 people wore yellow for Noah!

Wishbone Day Tomorrow!

Just a reminder about Wishbone Day. In case you haven't heard of Wishbone Day, it is a day to raise awareness of Osteogenesis Imperfecta, which is what our son Noah had. If you would like to participate all you have to do is wear YELLOW tomorrow (Friday) May 6th. We would love to receive pictures of everyone who participates. If you want to share your photos, please send us pictures by tagging me in your photo on Facebook or send to my e-mail address erin.austin@hotmail.com with WISHBONE DAY in the subject line, and include your location. The organizers of Wishbone Day put together a video using these pictures and I would love to be able to send some in! For more information on Wishbone Day or about OI, you can click on the links on this page. Looking forward to seeing lots of yellow tomorrow!

Our Noah Red Bear

I received something wonderful in the mail today and was so excited I wanted to share with everyone. A while back I was told about a website, www.mollybears.com. This website is run by a wonderful lady named Bridget Crews. She and a small group of people create weighted teddy bears for families who have lost a baby in memory of her own daughter, Molly. This is such a wonderful idea and I know personally how great of a help it is. Today I received my Noah Red bear and holding him is one of the best feelings I've had in awhile. I never knew how much my arms would ache from not being able to hold Noah, and holding my 4lb 11oz bear helps take some of that ache away.
