Post-Surgery Thoughts

It's hard to believe that it's been two weeks already since Tyler had his surgery. Although, time also seems to go by slooooow now that he's not sleeping through the night and more fussy than before. We suppose he's trying to get back in the swing of things. We have to give him a lot more attention than a "normal" baby, which means you don't get to enjoy as many blog posts. We are tired!

However, we also feel very blessed. Everything has gone as well or better than we could have imagined. We have also had so many people help us in different ways. We greatly appreciate everything. The Lord has truly blessed our family. We know that His hand is in all things. Jamie found this picture on another blog that really expresses how we feel.

We also wanted to share this video of Tyler that Jamie took today on the digital camera. Such a cute little guy when he's not crying (but even that is kind of cute).



There's a lot more things we'd like to share - ventures in the mountains, trips to the Highland water fountain park and Raging Waters, hanging out with our folks. Unfortunately, we didn't take any pictures. Sort of reminds me of the Weird Al song where they go see the biggest ball of twine in Minnesota and the dude steals the family camera. Just like that family, "at least we have our memories."

Congrats to cousin Angela on her new addition! Can't wait to see the pics of little Addyson.

On a sad note, we offer our condolences and prayers to the Hall family back in Ridgecrest for the passing of Sister Hall. I've known her for as long as I can remember. She was a great person and I know she is in our Father in Heaven's rest now.

We're so happy Tyler is doing so well - what a trooper! The kids have prayed for him in every prayer since before he was born! Take care - hope to see you guys this fall!

Wow, that is awesome - Tyler looks so good. I know exactly what you mean about the camera - sometimes you have to live life instead of document it. I think my sister and her kids go to that same water park. We keep praying for Tyler!
