It's so wonderful to see Tricia out and about, enjoying life! She looks so beautiful, and the two of you seem so in love with each other. Enjoy each moment. :0)
too fun - so great to see such big smiles - from both of you..... checked out her favorite ice cream on line and not sure about that one... maybe something I will have to try sometime..... thought you might like this site with the photos when I saw the one with the sunglasses.... its a neat concept...let me know what you think
What a fun day! I am sure that the two of you are treasuring every single moment you are getting to share with each other. You look like such a fun couple.
Tricia, you look gorgeous. So glad y'all are able to be out and about. You do both look very happy. I looked up the gelato place online. The closest store to me is 734 mi. Who wants some??? I'll just run over and grab an order..;) Tricia's face is telling me it is GOOD stuff!! Enjoy yourselves and the wonderful outdoors. Soon there will be a stroller with miracle baby in it!! God Bless you all Jamie in Texas
those pictures made my day! Seeing tricia with such happiness in her eyes. I am glad you guys are able to do a few more "normal" things in your chaotic life right now. (((HUGS)))
Great pictures!!! They are making me think it's been a long time sence we got the next edition on your love story! I think we need another when you have the time!
I am so thrilled to see the two of you together, in street clothes, enjoying the gardens and some dessert!! I am so excited for ya'll! Praying that Miss Gwyneth is HOME before you know. What a blessing and an encouragement!! Much love - Bamagirl!!!
Can I just say how awesome it is to see Tricia in normal everyday clothes! I mean, I know she wore them a lot in the hospital, but this is different and I'm so happy for you both!
Tricia, you look beautiful! And Nate, you look very handsome and relaxed now that you actually get to hang out and have some fun with your ladylove =)
The photo with the bamboo, where the "joint" of it is lined up with the trach collar? It's awesome! Makes the trach look like a choker necklace instead! And Tric, you could seriously model =)
You have sunscreen on, right?? LOL so nice to see you having fun!!!
I am a long time follower, first time commenter :) I never want to post and add to what is probably an overwhelming amount of messages, but I just had to today. It fills my heart with such joy to see Tricia doing so well. You capture her beauty so well and it is a blessing to be able to peek into her miraculous journey. Thank you!!
What a blessing to see you up and about and EATING real food. I love the pictures in the bamboo, that is some huge bamboo. I am praying you continue to get stronger and maybe feed some of that yummy stuff to fatten Gwyneth up so she can be free like you are!!! Love you guys and prayers continue here for you. This is such a beautiful Miracle to behold.
Tricia has reminded me that I need to smell more flowers and eat more ice cream with my little boy. You look so lovely, T, and I'm so genuinely happy for you. I haven't forgot about sending Ralphie some special cat food, I've just been extra busy.
Wow! Trisha, you look so beautiful and radiant! I am sure glad that you can finally eat. You will need your strength b/c soon enough Gwyneth will be home! I know that you must be so excited. Wonderful pictures! So happy that you shared. Thank you!
it is pure joy to see you and Tricia out and about together!!!!! Can't wait for the pictures you will be taking of ALL THREE of you out on the town! Continuing to pray...jen in al
Tricia looks WONDERFUL! You have a beautiful bride, Nate! I know you know that! And, she got to eat something, too? More good news! I am glad you had a good day! Gwyneth is getting big! Adorable, too!
Is it possible that one month ago, Tric was hooked up, on her "last lung" and not sure when/if she would get her new lungs?? PRAISE THE LORD!! She looks so wonderful. And being from the land of water ice, my family knows the sweet pleasure of Rita's! The joys of the simple things.... Great photos. We're praying for the perfect timing for a sweet return to the beach for your whole family! God is so good!
first of all, you are an amazing photographer. second of all, you two are so adorable together. third of all i wanted to tell you that today at the hospital i work in we had a table set up in the cafeteria all about "donate life" and they had a computer set up to register to be an organ donor and i am already an complete organ donor and i got a pin today and i have it on my name badge in honor of Tricia!!!!
Duke Gardens is spectacular, esp in spring. I have some great photos of outings there with our 3 little boys when we lived in Chapel Hill 20 years ago.
It's fantastic to see you both out, living life! What an awesome, faithful God we serve.
i love that last picture of Tricia, she looks like she is REALLY enjoying whatever is on that spoon! She looks like alot of fun! God Bless you Tricia :)
Great pictures! As always, thank you for sharing your precious moments with all of us. I am so happy to see Tricia enjoying the outdoors! You both look so happy to be out and about again with one another. Continuing enjoying the wonders that God is sending your way.
Tricia you look so beautiful... a day in the gardens with your husband, what a perfectly wonderful day for the two of you.. add a stroller with one chubby little Gwyneth and you are golden!!! love to you all, j
Looks like a great day to be outside enjoying the surroundings! And whatever Tricia is eating in that last photo made this pregnant girl's mouth water...I am really hungry now!
Nate, I was looking back over pics from the last month(punk rock baby remains a personal fav;), and I noticed your haircut was on the 26th of March. Your hair has grown alot! Egads man, do you use Miracle Grow on your head?!? heh Sorry, just hadda mess with ya... God Bless, Jamie in Texas
Tricia looks absolutely wonderful! So nice to see her in an outside setting AND eating Rita's!! whooohooo! I can definitely see that Gwyneth has her momma's nose and smile! Oh , and Nate , I noticed that your hair grows soooo fast..hehe.. keep enjoying the beautiful weather..soak up that sun!

Wonderful pictures!! Tricia looks so happy and so healthy! Can't wait to see photos of all 3 of you in the Duke Gardens together--right before you head back HOME!!!!!!!
It must be so great for Tricia to be outside, to feel the sunshine and the breeze, to go to Rita's, to eat what she wants (sort of:) when she wants!! God is so good! The simple things in life, the ones we take for granted some times, often hold some of the greatest blessings!
Tricia, You look awesome! Three months after having a baby, not to mention a few weeks after a double lung transplant:) You are absolutely amazing! Keep it up!
WOW!!! The pictures are great!!! Its so neat to see the 2 of you OUT of the hospital.....Pretty soon it will be the three of you OUT of the hospital!!! Praise God!

Tricia you look so great! So full of life. Glad to see and hear your progress. I especially love the ice cream pic....like a little girl at Christmas! Thanks for sharing!
I actually burst into tears as I looked at these photos- not having "known" Tricia before Gwyneth's birth and reading about her on your blog, I am astounded by her beauty and health. She has always been beautiful, don't get me wrong, but I love how healthy and (silly word but-) robust! she looks!! And you don't look so bad yourself! :) Penny
Tricia- it is so awesome to see the sparkle ack in your eyes and a smile that shows new spunk. Finally, you look like you are starting to really feel better. I love all the new pics from the Gardens. Keep up all your hard work, you are doing excellent.
Once again I am reminded of how awesomw our God is! Tricia looks amazing. I am glad to know that both of your girls are doing great! Still praying in Amarillo, Texas

Ritas?!? I'm from PA - where Rita's started. It's great to see it spreading across the country. I hope you enjoyed it, Tricia; I'm sure it was tasty and delicious! I'm so happy to see you up and around as I continue to keep you and your family in my thoughts and prayers.
You both look so happy :) Thank you for sharing these beautiful photos! Nate, you look like you've lost some weight! :) You both look great! Can't wait to see little Gwyneth with you soon!! love and prayers, The Lockwoods
