July 2011

This has been a fun month from being in Austin, to having Mimi, Papa, and Great Mimi in town, to having fun, relaxing family weekends, to getting bored at home to avoid the heat. 

Kidney update:  We went to see the Urologist for a 6 month check and Caleb "graduated" and never has to go back!!!!!! Praise the Lord! Everything is looking good, they are proud of him for being potty trained, his right kidney stills looks enlarged (like a deflated balloon) but the left one measured the same as the right but appears healthy.  Caleb will have to get his blood pressure and urine tested yearly for the rest of his life to make sure the kidneys are still okay and we will keep him on miralax for a while longer to help things flow.  (Dr. Strand gave Davis' a sonogram and he is great! Thank you Lord!)

Caleb has enjoyed dressing up this month...so we are going to play a little game with these silly pictures:

Would you rather be a "Firework" for 4th of July?

Or a Superhero with a cape and goggles?

Or would you rather be a lion playing with cars?

Or a baseball player?

Would you rather have a cone for a head, hands, and feet?

Or would you rather be a firefighter with an oxygen mask?

Would you rather be "Buzz Lightyear" (use your imagination on this one-helmet, wings, gloves, shoes that light up, a flashlight on his arm-laser, and special binoculars)?

Or wearing a snorkeling mask with cousins?

Or would you rather play and paint with liquid chalk before it get 165 degrees?

Or when it does get 165 degrees-would you rather melt "Icebergs" with special treats in the bath tub to stay cool?

Would you rather be in the exosaucer with a smiling brother next to you?

Or laying on your tummy (with the pearly whites of 2 teeth showing)?

Or would you rather be sitting up for a few seconds before falling over?

or would you rather enjoy this smile all day long?

Or would you rather take a picture of 2 precious boys?

Would you rather take a picture with Papa?

 We may be a little biased but we think that is a pretty fun month with a lot of great "Would you rather" options! Now you know, we weren't kidding that Caleb LOVES to dress up!!  Such a fun month!
