Hey Everybody...
        Wow....things have been crazy around our house lately!  I need to begin by apologizing for the huge delay in my posts.  We have all had that nasty "flu bug" for about 2 weeks now and when we finally get rid of one cold another one is waiting in the wings.  Also, our computer will not allow me to store anymore pics in my picasa bin due to the overwhelming amount of pics that we store.  So....if anyone knows of a really great computer guru please let me know....because my drive C has given me the big OH No to any more pics!  Speaking of OH NO....I turned the BIG "3" 0"!   I am now officially out of the 20's!  Boy were they action packed!  I started it with the birth of my daughter Karlyn and ended it with an open heart surgery on my 3 month old little man Parker!  Bet you can't top that one!   Anyway....Parker has had a cough since before his surgery and we can't seem to figure out where it is coming from.  He has had alot of drainage and his doctor reassured me that his cough from before was due to the amount of fluid in his lungs and now it's primarily from his cold.  Parker had a 102.8 fever Thursday night, which is always a little scary after surgery.  So I set my alarm and was up every 2 hours checking on our little man.  He is feeling much better today and we look forward to the entire family being well for a change.  Parker turned 6 months old last week and as soon as I can post more pics I will be sharing those with you.  Parker's physical therapist will be coming to our house for the first time this week so we look forward to meeting her.  She will be able to help Parker learn to roll over and hold himself up!  We are excited to see him overcome some of his small milestones!  We also will be starting Parker on baby food this week.  Parker's pediatrician really wants to get Parker's weight increased.  Please keep us in your prayers for we have a big week of "1st" before us.  We have a really big unspoken prayer request for one of our dearest family members that is battling cancer and will undergo surgery next Monday!  I ask that you join our family in prayer for the surgical team and surgeon that will be involved with the procedure.  Thank you all for your prayers for our little man and I look forward to posting pics of Parker soon!
Love In Christ

  1. Amy, remind me and I'll let you know a couple of options on how to post without using Picasa. I recommend getting an external hard drive too :)

  2. Hi Amy,
    It's Jennifer from church (mommy of Emma Kate with the big bows). Anyway, does Parker have an Early Intervention Specialist? Just curious because that is what I do for a living and I am not saying that you need one, but they help to set you up with resources, etc (in addition to therapy evaluations). Good luck meeting your PT this week!

  3. Hey Amy Said! It's Lynette! Parker is so adorable! Give Karlyn kisses from me and the boys. Hope things with the PT and baby food are going smoothly. Ball season for Bill is starting back up so I'm gonna have to go with him one weekend so we can come by and meet Parker and see Karlyn. Thanks for giving this link to Aunt Lisa so we can stay updated with everything! I am keeping yall in my prayers! Love yall!
