  1. Mother's Day 5/13/12

    We had a great day. Went to Sonny's to eat some barbecue and celebrate my Daddy's 71st birthday (it's actually tomorrow but we usually end up combining Mother's Day and his birthday dinner). It was fun. Ethan and Christa each gave me a card that they wrote their names on (Ethan had some help from Mike) and they gave me one of those flower vases that you press the button and the flower opens up. When Ethan gave me his card, he sang, "letter, letter, letter" and turned it from side to ...

  2. Doing great 5/12/12

    Ethan is doing great. It has been a week and two days since his eye surgery. They are still red but his they are in the middle like they are supposed to be.

She had field day today and rode a pony; very exciting for her. And they are going on a field trip Thursday to the strawberry patch where they will pick a basket of strawberries and have some strawberry ...

They will have an Easter egg hunt Saturday at the park. We are looking forward to that and some much needed R&R for everybody. Ethan sipped some broth from a spoon yesterday evening during supper. Very excited about that. It's still liquid but he said it was good. He also sipped milk from a spoon and liked it. There ...

  5. Ethan's appointment with surgeon

    Ethan is sitting here trying to sing "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star". He had a fantastic appointment with his surgeon yesterday (Friday 3/2). His right lung has pretty much filled in his right chest. His diaphragm was still a little up but so much better than last year. A big bulge that was concerning was gone. Praise the Lord that his lung is growing. His surgeon explained to a resident that he had the worst Right CDH and that he was wasn't eligible for ECMO because of his size ...
