Gratuitous photo entry, update on my sis

Photos from…recently.

Kenny riding the helicopter at the mall on his 4th birthday. He was so serious! He was pretending to fight fires in it. My little man.

Kenny at Tee Ball. He’s the one in green shorts and red hat.

Kenny, Evan, and Daddy playing bubbles.



Evan at the top of the McDonald’s play land

More Kenny in Tee Ball. He’s the one in the dark shirt and red hat.

Update on my sister and the baby: Well things are as expected. The pediatric urologist has confirmed the cystic kidney. It probably has no function. But the OTHER kidney looks "perfect" which is wonderful news. She should be just fine. There is no reason to take the baby early. There’s no reason the baby shouldn’t thrive once born. They’ll watch her and do some extra ultrasounds now and after birth. But all signs point to just letting things go unless absolutely necessary. It’s a worry still, but there’s a lot more confidence about the whole thing now.

Evan looks SOOO much more grown up than Toby. He doesn’t even have baby pudge on his cheeks anymore! And how brave is he climbing up to the top of that enormous play thing! OMG! Toby would NEVER do that!!! I’m glad the news about your sister and baby is good.

It might be that the other kidney functions when the baby is born. Alright, it might not be realistic but I like to be overly positive.:) I love all the photos. Your little boy is like my children, tiny skinny arms and legs. They look so fragile but they are total power houses leaving all the other children in the dust. Oh, the others eyes are like saucers on the carousal.

Great pics! The boys look like they’re thriving this summer. 🙂 Great news about the baby too, that must be a bit of a relief to hear, for everyone. Even though you worry until the babe’s here anyway.
