Benson and Claire were born with a rare genetic disease in which their liver produces too much oxalate--called primary hyperoxaluria. Claire's condition has progressed much faster than Benson's. She was on dialysis since she was 3 months old and for much of that time, did dialysis 3 hours a day, 6 days a week. She receive a much needed kidney / liver transplant on December 18, 2009. It is expected Benson will eventually need similar transplants.

Cute Hats

We had a hat party a few nights ago. Nearly all these darling hats were made by my wonderful Colorado friend, Valentina! She is so talented. I loved Claire in the little hats when she was a baby and I'm so happy to get to use them again with Mabel! So cute. Thanks Valentina!
