Braylon's Baby Wishes

Hi Baby Boot Camp Mamas!

Sweet Baby Braylon is 2 weeks old, and so cuddly! Emerson and I went by to visit on Thursday and had the most joyous time. I couldn't wait to hug Danielle congratulations and hold little Braylon. Danielle is doing INCREDIBLE and so strong! She has been given a gift in Braylon and a gift in that she doesn't look like she had a baby- new Baby Boot Campers I tell you it is a gift because it is not normal, even for us instructors.

Danielle has had a bit of an adjustment with the two kiddos. It is not just the transition of one little boy to two, but that Braylon has Down Syndrome. It was a surprise to Danielle and Bob and was confirmed last Wednesday. Their road ahead is different than what they had originally thought, but they are so grateful to have a healthy baby boy who is truly doing well. He is nursing and sleeping better than his big brother did as a newborn, but will have some obstacles ahead that weren't anticipated. He was a gift already to his family, and is now an even bigger gift in the joy and love he will bring to everyone.

I had told Danielle last month I would set up meals for her family, we decided to wait after the holidays until her little baby was brought home. With that being said, I have now set up the meal/grocery planning through Lots of Helping Hands. It is easy and all done online. The timing is spaced out over the next 6-9 months because little Braylon will require additional therapies in due time. That is when Danielle's family will appreciate coming home to a meal waiting, or the basics provided for them. If you would like to help out, please email me at: erin.shirey@babybootcamp.com

Danielle looks forward to seeing everyone soon and introducing them to little Braylon!

Best to all-
