Our Easter outfits.











An update on Aiden, his red blood cell count has gone back up. And for Rocky, she came out of surgery fine. The vet took extra skin to have tested to see if the cancer has gone anywhere else. Thanks to everyone for their prayers.

PROM 2006
Jimmy and Reva had their prom today and as you can see they are stunning!!!

"Risky Business"









We found out today that Rocky has a tumor in her leg. The vet is going to be taking out a big chunk of her upper leg and seeing if it has spread. If you could pray for her we would all appreciate it.

An update on Aiden. His red blood cell count has gone down again, so we are needing people to pray for him. We get his blood tested again later this week and we need for it not to go down any further. We should know next week if he will need to just start taking iron or if something more is going to be needed.

Last Monday Chad and Jonathan started swim class. They are going until the first week of July and they meet on Monday and Wednesday from 6:30-7:00. They are having a lot of fun meeting people and learning to enjoy the water. Jonathan has gotten comfortable with going under and jumping in. They sing songs and "dance" around with the children to make them enjoy the water.

Fun in the park







Yesterday we all went out, now going out is a long process of getting both boys ready. But I needed to exchange my climbing harness (because it was too big (and that is a good thing)) we were also looking for a double running stroller. We had been out for a while and I needed to feed Aiden again (and for those of you who don't know Aiden has a reflux problem and throws up a lot) so as I was feeding him he threw up all over my, shirt, undergarments, and shorts (not a good thing because we still hadn't gotten to REI to replace the harness). Chad then had to go into REI and buy a shirt so I could go in and replace the harness. From now on I will always remember to bring an extra shirt for myself.

This is Jonathan and his Go Kart. He really gets going (2 mph max) and loves cars as much as his mom and dad.

This past week Chad's mom visited from MI. Jonathan and her had the best time. We went for walks and just had a great time.


One day we went to a park and Jonathan had a great time

"Brotherly Love"

Jonathan has really become attached to his little brother Aiden.

Sorry it has taken so long to post new pictures, our computer was broken and it has taken a little time to get on the internet. Hope all is going well with everyone. I will try to post video this week so you all can see both boys in action.
