One long post...or maybe just lots of pictures...

It's way too late to be doing this on a Thursday. But here goes anyway...

Trinity usually helps us get her undressed, but she figured out that she can do most of it herself. It's really so much fun watching her discover new things to do. At least most of the time. Watching her eat dirt isn't really all that fun.

Better late than never...belly shot of Autumn and our little H2. Our little guy has been neglected by yours truly in the blog sense. Hard to ignore that belly though, she looks GREAT!

Trinity loves her slide. she can go up and down both sides. The amazing thing is that she can do it either head or feet first, whichever she prefers. It is kind of like being ambidextrous. Sort of.

One thing Autumn does not like is her belly button being touched. I think that Trinity is the only person on earth who could get away with this. I know I couldn't because I don't sleep so well on the couch.

This is our modern toddler: have to stop play for a minute to text her friends...

Trinity REALLY likes to touch mom's belly button! She likes it SO much that I put two pictures of it on here just to make a point.

Here is a funny shot of me trying to take pictures of Trinity while she is coming over to get the camera. Not a flattering shot, but it's a funny one! Watch out!

This is another one of Trinity's new things: sitting on us. She usually giggles when she does this. I am just glad it's not me this time!

Here is a fun shot of the three most important people in my life. Gotta love it!

    Great pics, Aaron!! I'm the same way about my belly button....and my belly looks just about the same as your wife's *AND* our 2yo is obsessed with trying to touch my belly button!! Funny. Your last pic/comment brought tears to my eyes. Exactly what God intended, I think. Hugs to you & your FAB family!!

Waiting For a Miracle

As many of you know, Trinity is in the pediatric ICU at St. Luke's Regional Medical Center in Boise, Idaho. She's been having seizures but as yet there is no diagnosis aas to what the underlying problem might be. Autumn and I are learning a great deal and I am getting a crash course in ICU medicine. Trinity has been sedated since Monday morning about 2am Mountian Time. She is on a ventilator, so the sedative is to keep her from fighting all the tubes. One thing we have learned is that we don't have control of this situation. It's hard because I don't want my daughter to suffer. I don't want her to have permanent damage from this. I want my daughter back because I miss her terribly. But I have to let all of that go and trust that God has our best in mind. I have to because I can't do a single thing to help her right now. So I pray and cry a little and sing to my baby. Autumn is doing the same. We have been incredibly blessed to have support from all over the ...

The end of a good thing

Okay, I am a fan of breastfeeding. That sounded weird. I don't like it for me, but for my kids. Autumn worked very hard at it, with wonderful results for Teagan and Trinity both. She was so successful that we are just now, 9 months after weaning Teagan, running out of frozen stores of breast milk for his bottles. Now, we haven't been giving it to him exclusively. He has been on cow's milk ever since he was a year old. It's been mostly for night time bottles. Unfortunately now that's over too. Here's our memorial service for breast milk: Proud mommy...and she should be! Yep, he loves him some breast milk! And now, since that chapter is over and a new one is started, we'll talk about the grieving process. Poor little Teagan will likely be going through an extensive emotional adjustment. Let's see one scenario of how it might  go: The first reaction will be typical crying. He doesn't get what he wants, so he cries. Hey, don't we all? At th...

I get bored pretty easy. I get tired of the same old thing. But I discovered something. I don't get tired of my wife or daughter. Do they get on my nerves sometimes? Sure, but I never get tired of them. We went to Boise last week (or was it the week before?) for follow-up appointments for Trinity. We were there for two days because Trinity was scheduled for a follow-up MRI and they won't see her at the neurologist's office the same day as the MRI. I can see why; she has to be put to sleep for the MRI because it takes over 45 minutes and she has to stay still. Trinity can't stay still for 45 seconds, much less 45 minutes! Here are some photos from the trip: Here's Miss Smiley-Bug waiting for her turn in the MRI machine. She was having fun crawling around and trying to pull on as many dangling cords as possible. She's so much fun to be around. She barely even cried when they put the IV in her arm. She did fight a little, just because she doesn't like being hel...
