Family Camp part 2...one long post!

Now where were we? Oh yeah, more pictures from family camp. Go here to get caught up.


Momma and baby boy, chillin' in the grass.


Lots of sliding pictures of Trinity and Ava, but you have to give the love to the headfirst slide!


Teagan and the ladies...


Teagan sure liked playin' with Kate!


Okay, a couple of things: Fun games in the sports center. Trinity likes to fly. Why do I look like I have a big ol' belly? Maybe 'cuz I do!


One game was a mural made from chalk...Ava is doing her part. Let's see what Trinity is up to....


NOT doing her part. To her credit, she is organizing the pieces of chalk. And getting chalk all over her pants.


Mom to teh recue. Moments like this make me appreciate my mom and all the yuck that she cleaned from my clothes.


Last was the obstacle course in the skate park. Trinity really liked sliding down the ramps.


This one was about 8 feet high, with at least a foot of vertical. Let's just say that Trinity sat on my lap!


Snot bubble.


Chillin' like a villian. Teagan won't be left behind for long!


Trinity had a grand time collecting pine cones in her bucket. She is definitely our little collector. Now, if she would just stop collecting stuff from her little brother...


My favorite photo of the trip. She looks like one of the Incredibles or something. This is her new-to-her open-water swimsuit. It has floaties built in, making her look like a super hero. The pool closed before we could get there, but she sure loved her new suit!


Best running picture ever. Joy.


More Joy, in the form of Oreo ice cream pie. Hard to beat!


Can't remember why, it looks like Teagan is rallying his people.


Trinity's latest attempt at photography. Her new technique is to just press teh shutter button repeatedly. There were about 6 of this exact photo. Love digital. Love it!


More Trinity. Self portrait.


At the end, we had all (mostly) survived. The Kelleys...


...and the Harrells!

G'nite Gracie!

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

First Scoop...and a monkey!

So it's been a crazy couple of weeks for us, which makes our lives about the same as yours. We have, however, been able to get out and do some fun things. This weekend, one of the highlights was walking into town to get Trinity her first ice cream cone. Her uncle Rick gave her money on her birthday for this, so we're finally getting to it. It was the perfect day for it! As everyone knows, you have to approach an ice cream cone very carefully. You have to study its patterns, learn where it hunts. Only then can you move in for the kill... Or you can just grab it and bite it! It was really amazing how well our little girl did with her first cone. She took good bites and even wanted to share. After the first few bites she wouldn't take any more until Autumn and I had take bites ourselves. Very generous if you ask me. I think she gets it from her mother... There really wasn't even very much mess. Mostly around the mouth area. We had prepared for the worst, even to the point

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
