Sorry it's a little dark... too much backlighting.One boy's long road to recovery. Matthew was born two months premature with a rare fourfold heart defect known as Tetralogy of Fallot with Pulmonary Atresia and MAPCA's, and Ventricular Septal Defect. He's had two open heart surgeries and will need additional heart surgeries in the future. To appreciate the absolute miracle of this "3 plus million dollar boy", you'd need to look into the "Archives" beginning after his first 9 hr open heart surgery at Stanford, August 2005.

Some fun pics over the past couple days
Wearing my glasses.
He's a big boy at the counter... he loves sitting there.
Knawing on some string cheese... still doesn't "eat" .. but it's a start. Gets all gooey.... yum.
Packed up and ready to go in one of his birthday gifts. The girls from NEIS bought him a pool and a hand basket filled w/ tools. He was loving it.
My sister couldn't resist picking up the little magpie!!
Uh yah!! He is ALL INTO throwing stuff in the toilets. I panic when I hear it flush, I go rushing in to be sure nothing is going down!!Thursday, May 08, 2008
Can you believe it!!!
Matthew will be 3 this Saturday!!
We will be having a small family get together ~ Mike has to work that day, so we figured it would be easier this time around to keep it small.
We will also be celebrating Mike's birthday and Mother's Day :-)
Matthew's Grandma Sue is flying down from California to spend a few days with us.
We will be sure to post some pictures. He got a haircut the other day, and he always seem to look so much older after a haircut.
