We were so excited to see our friend and fellow blogger Tom Riles of Life of Dad featured last week on the Ellen DeGeneres show!

Tom and his lovely wife Lucy had a baby girl named Barbara Ann this past March.  Barbara Ann was born with a heart condition that required immediate open-heart surgery.  Ellen told their story on her show this past Friday and then surprised the couple with some jaw-dropping gifts.

Watch the segment here.  And don’t forget to check out Tom’s hilarious blog Life of Dad.  You can also follow him on Twitter and on his Facebook Fan Page.
