Long overdue update

I need to post quite a bit about what has been going on with the boys this summer, but I only have time right now for a short update. Luke is having another nasal dilation tomorrow and Dr. Hill might clean out his left mastoid cavity (all the fluid in his left ear). The dilation in one day surgery, but we might have to spend the night for the ear. So, either Rob or I will update about the surgery as soon as we can afterwards. Luke is also having another swallow study done next week to determine if vital stim swallowing therapy would help him stop aspirating. Promise we will update after that as well.

Sam and Gus have just gotten back from their second trip to the beach with Nonna and Papa. They went to Vacation Bible School while they were there and had a great time. It was really quiet around here without them, so we are glad to have them home. They start 1st grade on August 7th and we get to meet their teacher on the 5th. Summer has just flown by. It will seem strange not having them home with me. But Sam and Gus are both ready to go back to school.

I will post photos soon, since I don't have time now. But I did want to show you all this short video I took of Luke today. He was making more noise this morning than usual, so I was trying to get a good video of that. It didn't work out, but I did get this of him crawling. This is the first time I have seen him crawl on his own. It is only a couple of paces, but I am so excited that Luke is finally interested in moving on his stomach. You can see too that he loves his beads.



Promise I will post more soon!
