Update!

Time for an update! Past time for an update...but you know how that goes!

We are doing great! Josh just finished up ARC (Army Reconnaissance Course) and is on to his next "follow-on school", a Stryker Course, which seems to be much more relaxed with NO field time...thank God! Josh did great in ARC and graduated in the top of his class just like he did in BOLC III. We are so proud of him! Josh is getting eye surgery next week. The surgery he is getting is called PRK. It is similar to Lasik, but it is a longer and more painful recovery. He is excited to be getting it done...no more glasses or contacts to fool with! His surgery in Wednesday, July 15. Please say some prayers for him that the surgery goes well and he recovers quickly.
Ty is incredible! He is in this explosion of learning new things right now! He is crawling around everywhere now, and is so curious about everything! It is so fun to just watch him explore and learn new things. We can't believe how fast he is growing! He is such a blessing and such a good, happy baby! We just love him to bits! Of course I will post some videos of him. That seems to be what this blog has turned into...videos of Ty, but I can't help it, he's just such a cutie! :-)

I had another baby doctor appointment last week, and our first ultrasound. Bib Dos seems to be just fine so far! We had a quick ultrasound just to measure him and make sure our due dates seemed to match up. He looked fine, and we saw his little heart beating. But when the doctor tried to listen for the heartbeat, we couldn't hear it. That worried Josh and I, but since we saw the heart beating on the ultrasound, and the doctor said that it was normal to not be able to hear it sometimes this early on, we felt okay. I go back on July 20th, so hopefully we'll hear it then. Josh and I both think that Bib Dos is a boy, which is why we keep calling it a "he." Please pray that baby #2 is growing healthy and strong!

Well, that's what has been going on with us! We will keep you updated on Josh's eye surgery, and our baby Dr. appointment's too! Thanks for all your prayers!

Here are some recent pics and videos:

I had Lasik done on July 2nd and I LOVE IT! I could see great that night after having it done and coming home and taking a nap. Drove myself to the checkup appointment in Louisville the next morning and had 20/20 vision. At my one week checkup it was 20/15. I see so well, I forget that I don't have my contacts in. The surgery wasn't bad at all, couldn't feel anything really. Good Luck, Josh!

Diggin' the mohawk! :)

Love the update and Bib Dos pic. You're so funny!

Good luck to Josh and his Lasik.

Hope to run into you at church soon. Are you doing MOPS next this year?
