Fun at Kemah Boardwalk

Baylor went to camp today with some friends & we went to eat sushi at Kemah and spend the afternoon out there. Sushi is Baylor's favorite so we have to go without him sometimes to save us some money!

Adeline's Vacation Bible School

Adeline got her first glance at VBS this summer. Luckily it was just a 3 day instead of the whole week. Baylor was too OLD to go!! Whoa!! Cutest part of the week was day 1 when I asked her if she learned about Jesus. She said " yeah mom, but he wasn't there. It was only a lady teacher"! I wish I could freeze her at this age!

Baby Girl Update

Well I'm at 21 weeks, so half way there. Finally I can feel lots of movement and even a little movement from outside my belly. I can't wait until the kids can feel her moving. I still can't believe it's a girl. I just didn't see us having another girl! I'm still going to crossfit and hope to continue as long as I can. This summer has been so relaxing. I'm trying not to count down days back to work. Do. Not. Do. It.!!! 

We had our anatomy ultrasound, chromosome testing, genetic testing, and on and on & all seems good so far for a healthy little bossy bundle ! Due date is November 24. She'll be here before we know it!

Baylor Update from Bone marrow Biopsy

Baylor's doctor called today with results of his most recent bone marrow biopsy. His bones are basically empty of bone marrow, for lack of a better medical way to say it, but they have been that way for quite some time now. Good news is there was no significant change and things are stable. 

I wish I could give his doctor the proper amount of credit she deserves, but I don't know how. Her name is Dr.Alison Bertuch and she is with the hematology team at Texas Children's Hospital. She is always one step ahead of me. If she doesn't hear from us in a while, she calls. She gives me her direct lines and gives me access to all sorts of things I didn't know existed. She got us into a program that banks cord blood for free when I was pregnant with Adeline & I had just been thinking about cord blood banking for the new baby today. When Dr. Bertuch called, she already had the information ready for me and asked if I had considered banking blood from the new baby! She was ready to send my name and information to the contact person at the blood bank. She just needed my approval. She's amazing. 

It's such a blessing in such a hard area of our life that we have someone that I trust to care for Baylor and give me the correct information and guidance I need to make decisions about his health.  

July 4th Fun with the Janese's

Adam's brother John, Laura, & the kids came to spend a few days this summer for July 4th.  It was lots of fun and the cousins had a blast.

 As sweet as they'll ever get!

Adeline, Katherine, Collin, and Baylor
