Gage's Surgery

Gage was such a trooper!!! Both of his arms were in casts from the tips of his fingers to his elbows and the doc had tied them together!! The last picture is of him just hours after his surgery! Happy as can be!! What a sweet baby! He is more brave than I could ever imagine!!

SORRY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


I know I am a blog slacker!!! It has been three long months of not blogging!!! There have been so many things going on in those three months! Gage had his big 1st birthday!! YEAH! His party went great! I do not have pictures on this computer because I am at work but I will post the pictures later!

Gage had surgery at the end of July! We ventured to the Shriner's hospital in Chicago. The surgery went GREAT! The doctors said he did awesome. ( I will post pictures later) He came through the surgery with flying colors and is healing better than expected!! We went for his last apt. a few weeks ago and the Doctor was very impressed with the way his hands were healing! I will post some before and after pictures of his hands later! He is healing so well we don't have to go back until December!!!! YEAH!!! We are so blessed to have all of our friends and family praying for us! God is AWESOME!

Also, on a lighter note, I am pregnant again!! I am 12 weeks prego, due March 23rd of next year. Super excited. We are hoping it is a girl but would love a boy just the same! We have 2 names picked out already, Sophie June (June after my Grandma) and Fisher Todd (Todd after Todd)!!! The doctor will be monitoring me more closely this time around to make sure everything is ok! We are praying and believing that this baby will be born just fine!!!!

Masters in the Art of Teaching

This weekend I graduated with my Masters in the Art of Teaching! It took 18 LONG months for me to finish! I am so thankful to my family who put up with me during my course of study! I am truly blessed to have such a supportive family! I am especially blessed to have a husband who supports me in everything that I do, THANKS TODD for being such an awesome husband and my very best friend!! I couldn't have accomplished this without you!
