Nicholas is Home!

Nicholas was discharged today to the surprise of us all. He was doing very well and there was really nothing that the PICU was offering him that we couldn't give him at home. In addition, a case of H1N1 was admitted which scared Nicholas' surgeon enough to kick us out the door. Praise God and thank you again for your prayers.

Nicholas' Surgery

Nicholas had his Tonsilectomy surgery today which went great. The surgeon was surprised that his tonsils were actually larger than he had anticipated. However, the surgeon is now more convinced that we will see more positive results as a result of this surgery. Because of Nicholas' history, he will be staying in the PICU while he is hospitalized. We are just not sure how long we will be here.

I would like to offer a special THANK YOU to all of you that have been in prayer. We have received so many calls, text messages, emails, and facebook messages. We are very appreciative of your love and prayer support.

A day at the Dixie Classic Fair

We took the kids out of school early to attend the Dixie Classic Fair, an event which we had never been to. We spent more money and more time than we had planned but made memories that will last a lifetime.

Poor video but the laugh factor is worth it! That would be Daddy laughing hysterically in the background
