Updates...

THANK YOU to everyone who prayed for Jack's appointment with the ped orthopedic surgeon. Dr. Herndon was not concerned about Jack's leg length discrepancy...he said the ligaments in his left leg are looser and it is something genetic but nothing we need to worry about at this point. We'll go back in 9 months to make sure things still look good but we are so thankful/relieved for this news!
Jack also had his first day of MDO today. He is on the waiting list at just about every church in town and a friend from Baylor who lives here recommended a small church that has a summer MDO program with openings. They let me enroll Jack for the remainder of the summer and if we don't get in anywhere else for the fall then he will be attending the Westwood Church of Christ MDO in the fall as well. I picked him up today and I wasn't surprised when the teacher said "he talks so well and has an unbelievable vocabulary...we were just thinging of things for him to say because we thought it was so funny"...great...my kid was the entertainment side show for today!
This past weekend Erik's parents came down from Lincoln NE for a quick visit. We had so much fun and ate some great food! They also brought the boys plenty of cool new toys to play with! Thanks Nana and Grandpa!

Jack was ready for his first day at "school"! (Thanks for the lunchbox, Aunt Jill! I realize it was a gift for Jacob but Jack's is still packed in the garage somewhere!)
Sometimes the big boy bed doesn't go so well and so we have to put a gate up in his door. He was so tired he fell asleep pouting right inside the gate!

Sweet brothers.


Waving hello to all his friends in Texas!

With Nana and Grandpa before church. Jacob is growing so fast.

We went to a great restaraunt on the lake with Baylor friends Lizzie and Tim...great recommendation...Jack loved the lighthouse and sailboats!
