Jason is taking a gift to his pregnant coworker tomorrow and needed a baby card to go with it. I thought about sending this card, but he told me her nursery was pink and green so I just couldn't! It's been a long week already, so I decided to CASE myself and remake the same card in different colors. I think it turned out pretty darn cute in Old Olive and Melon Mambo. :)

This top picture of Eli is one of my absolute favorites. It was taken on Thanksgiving of 2008. We had no idea he was seriously ill until a few days after Christmas. In a matter of 2 weeks he went from a healthy looking baby to this poor thing in the bottom picture. SMA is such a cruel disease and I recommend anyone thinking about having kids to be tested for their carrier status. Laila is a carrier and I am so thankful that we know that already. I hope she will never endure losing a child like we did. Knowledge is power.
Love your zoo baby card! And it looks like Eli was a charmer for sure! I had never heard of his illness until I met you - knowledge is power and you show such grace and courage to make people more aware of this disease.
