The Past

I thought it might be fun to repost the same day each year since we started the blog (it ended up the within a few days of April 21).  So here it is, partially edited, starting from 2007.

3rd Time is a Charm...Hopefully!
So round 3 is most likely taking place tomorrow morning. Tristan received his first dose of the steroid tonight, and the plan is for him to have the tube removed at 9 AM. Everything seemed on the upswing, from the reduced fluid coming back from his stomach to his good breathing sounds. I don't have any other update, just prayers that he's able to stay off the vent this time and prayers for Krista and I to keep positive about all of this.

Yesterday we had nice weather so we took Tristan over to the neighborhood park, which he loved. We spent some time there on Friday as well, but it's much more fun when dad can come too! He is still unsure about grass and walking with shoes. I love the pure joy on his face in that photo of Michael throwing him though, just an amazing kid!

Summer Boy





Well it's officially HOT here.  Today it was about 85 in Culver City and that means our apartment is about 105 : )  Thanks to everyone who donated to March of Dimes-friends, family, Electronic Arts people, and Blitz people!  As of today with EA matching we have raised $1225- AMAZING!

Pajamas






 Tristan started swim lessons again, hence the goggles while making lemon bars!  He kept insisting that Michael let him swim and do everything on his own.  So Michael did (to prove his point) and of course he didn't float and choked on a bunch of water- and that's why I don't take him to swim lessons!

Life Today



One amazing 4 year old!


 Today an investigator came to "investigate" our place.  It's funny that even though I know we are good people/parents it's hard not to feel constantly judged by people in the system.  She checked all the rooms in our house, asked lots of questions, etc.  I am thankful that people care about the little one's safety though!


We are looking forward to Easter and one special uncle arriving home from deployment!  Fun photos to come next week.

That's a cool idea. It's crazy how much Tristan has changed! It's hard to believe Mason will grow up that quickly.

Krista, You not only did it to Joy, you did it to me! What an amazing journey you've have been on. Tristan's eyes and smiles say it all - joy and love personified!
