Saturday Morning - March Of Dimes - 23 Weeks!!!

Good morning - what a beautiful morning it is and we are so happy for another day :-)
I apologize for not writing more yesterday as it was just such a hard/busy day. I will update more on that a bit later on this morning. For right now let me give some specific details regarding the funeral.

We will be having services on Tuesday - June 18th at 10:00AM for little Eva Aimee.
The services will be grave side and due to the limited area and seating we have asked that only family and invited friends attend. This is not to say we don't wish everyone could come, but the space and time just won't allow for too many people, not to mention that my wife's family is a bit huge already :-)

Bianca will not be attending as she and Baby B are doing very good and will remain in the hospital for hopefully several more weeks to come! We are officially 23 weeks today with Baby B and we are hoping to go the distance and go full term. I will update more about that a little later on today.

A few more things regarding the funeral - several people have already reached out to me regarding sending flowers or other things to the funeral home and grave site. Although we appreciate so much the thoughts and gifts, however as Eva has brought so much joy into our lives, we would like to give that joy back in some small way.

In lieu of flowers we are asking for donations to be made in memory of Eva Aimee to the March of Dimes! The mission of the March of Dimes is to help mom's have full term healthy babies, and help with research and coping with health issues that occur with pre-term pregnancies.

If you would like to donate please visit our donation page at: http://www.gofundme.com/3a11fo
If any one has questions please feel free to contact me :-)

Lastly for this morning - we would like to post a single picture of Baby Eva that the nurses took once she was born - (Allison - the nurses took amazing pictures as things happened a bit sooner than we had thought, and we are happy we did. Thank you so much for the sage advice as this has helped us so much!!)


She has my nose for sure, and she is just perfect - all ten fingers and ten toes :-)
We love you all and thank you so much for you support during this time!
