Alex talking

Punk'in Patch

Check out Alex talking!!!

Today we went to the "punk'in patch" Ry picked out one for her and Alex... She had a blast

Couldn't wait

I couldn't wait to hear how Ian and the rest were doing.... So I called and left a message... It just happened to be the exact time that they were taking Ian off the ecmo ..... A HUGE step... I just wanted all to know that he is doing as well as can be expected for the tiny steps he is taking, it has been a long and hard weekend for the Pearson's and I know Jenn will write when she feels she can take a few minutes away from her little man. Just know that the prayers and fasting are going in a great direction and being answered in our families behalf. We feel them each day. This Sunday being fast Sunday please remember the little heart babies... Thanks so much everyone

Spotlight on Ryleigh

The story that goes with this picture is soooo funny and I was waiting for Uncle Ryan to email with the details, but I will have to tell it to you from how I heard it..... The last full day in Florida was supposed to be uneventful.... Auntie Lisha and Grandma were going out shopping together, kind of a girls outing. The men on the other hand, were watching Ry (3) and Gracie (4). They had some oral histoy recording to finish and they needed it kind of quiet. So they set the girls up in front of a movie in the other room. They started recording and had many interruptions. One of the interruptions was Ry coming in to tell them that the girls had decided to cut each other's hair. When upon further inspection the men found that the girls had taken a bib wrapped it around each other, got a glass of water and a comb, and were wetting and combing each other. Uncle Ryan thought this to be a harmless thing. But, instead of the glass of water he got them a water bottle with about two inches of water in it, and went back the recording. The girls soon ran out of the water and could not get the sprayer screwed off but tried filling it anyway leaving about 1/2 gallon of water on the floor. They discovered that Fabreeze has the same effect as water and finished combing and spraying with that. They finished up by using the baby powder (which when mixed with the water made an amazing paste) This all going on with the men happy to not have many interruptions. Well pretty soon Gracie runs in and shouts..."Ryleigh's Bleeding" Somehow the two little girls had scaled the bathroom wall to reach the leg shaver grandma had left. Ry tried to shave her pit..... OR her b--by. No stitches needed, just a couple of band aids and two very surprised women who had to clean up the mess....

This is Daddy, Ry and Alex today in their fort.....Ry loved it. Daddy is the best fort-builder-guy.

She gets into everything... This just happened to be chocolate chips and sugar....

Ry in Florida

Here are a few pictures of Ry and her Grandma and Papa Homer and cousin Gracie....I don't have all the pictures from the trip, so I can't post auntie and uncle, but I will get some... She had soooo much fun and already misses spending time with Grace. She has been asking when she can go back to see her... Thanks guys....

On my mind

Cardiology called this morning and Alex has his appt. for Oct 15th. I hope he is a good boy and his heart looks better. Ry comes home today.. I can't wait to see her. It has been nice to have this alone time with Alex, but Ry is so much fun and I missed her. Yesterday our heart friend Ian received his new heart. I don't know how things are going yet, but I have been praying for their family...Any way I guess this is just a little post.
