Bad Blogger

I have been just terrible about keeping this blog up.  It is so easy to post photos and news to Facebook where most of my friends can see it.  But I tend to forget that this blog is here and needs to be updated for the memories.  So, here goes a BIG catch up post!  (No particular order so hang on for a bumpy ride!)

 John John celebrated his very first birthday with us in July!  He had a great time and LOVED everything Spiderman!!!



We have made several trips to St. Louis to have John's vertical talus repaired.  He's worn these casts like a champ and has never complained the first time.  At first he did ask frequently if he could go "schwinning".  He has his last cast removed next Monday!  HOORAY!!!

Before his first surgery.

Sweet Baby.....we are so blessed to be his parents!

Second trip to the OR....one more to go!


Oh yeah....and he's broken 2 of his 4 casts!  
Notice the duct tape on the one below?  

We celebrated Father's Day!
This is a photo of my favorite people in the ENTIRE WORLD!!!   
I am so proud of each of them for their own reasons.

KEITH GRADUATED! (More on this in another post!)

We found out John is really a super hero!  :)

To be continued!!!
We've also had a lot of time on the road between here and St. Louis.  We visited some of my family while we were there one time.  We celebrated Bailey's gotcha day and we've celebrated Brinley's birthday.  We had a sweet little friend visit us for 11 days.  Lots more photos to come!  I'll have to upload them from my camera!  :)
