Mike reads to Matthew every night that he's home. This is a favorite time!!

Our little "cool Joe".

Colin and his family could use your prayers right now

On Valentines Day, I had requested prayers for baby Colin (he has same defect as Matthew) ~
he was having his second open heart surgery that day in Boston.

He isn't doing very well.

Mel and Tim are requesting prayers for their little Colin. Here is his site if you would like to go leave an uplifting comment. We sure loved comments when we were in the hospital with Magoo.

Thank you so much, WE KNOW THE POWER OF PRAYER! Matthew is proof. My heart aches for the family...we know how hard this is on them.

My Everything

Isn't this a precious picture? Terri sent this to my cel phone while I was at work Tuesday. I was showing it to the other sergeant I was riding with. I told him, "There is my everything."

Shower boy

Getting a Mohawk from Daddy.

*giggling* He looks so cute in the shower. He's been taking showers instead of baths lately. It's better for his skin to not be sitting in water (he has a form of eczema w/ a crazy name).

Isn't this the cutest towel ever! His Uncle Joel gave it to him! Thanks Joel.. we love it!

I crack up everytime I get this towel out.

The wife of a friend on Mike's squad, gave Matthew this fun carpet w/ some diapered wooden animals. We love it ... it's a big hit ~ Thanks Joy and Wes!!

After one solid month of not eating/tasting a thing by mouth ~ yesterday I got him to taste (not so much eat, but it's a start) some chopped up grapes, apples and a teeny tiny peanut butter sandwich. I've been having a bit of luck with the white string cheese.

All of that did end up on the floor ... guess he was done! Oh yes, I do see some Cheerios too. He will taste those.
