Bryan news

Bryan has been in the hospital since Sunday. He has an infection in the part of his intestine that is no longer being used due to his colostomy. The infection has entered his bloodstream and is causing considerable pain in his abdomen. It was decided today that he will have an operation tomorrow to removed the unused intestine. They will also most likely create a new colostomy site because the current one has a large hernia. Bryan would prefer not to have any visitors at this time. I will try to post here when we know the time of the surgery. Thank you for your prayers!

First day of preschool!

Today our little girl went to preschool! Her teachers tell us she did a great job and we are very proud of her.


Excuse the poor photography- I was trying to be stealthy :).

Anna's story time

So tonight Anna told several bed time stories. Here is one of them:

Once upon a time there was a cat. And there was a monster. The cats were scared. They hid. That was a good story.

I think Anna has gotten caught up in the commercialism of the season. She just asked me if I was happy because I was holding my head in my hands. I told her I was feeling a little tired and sad. She told me that money would make me feel better and started throwing imaginary money at me. When Daddy asked what Mommy should do with the money she said I should build a sand castle with it. :)

Be nice

Tonight during our daily struggle to wipe off Anna's dinner off her face she said, "Be nice. Be nice a baby's head."

Our first tomatoes!

Pwank-oh, Aunt Kathryn!

Happy birthday, Bekah!
