Daddy's Day

I know this is super late but when the kids look back at this blog, I wanted them to see the breakfast in bed they made him:)

We sure LOVE Daddy!!!!!!

Vacation Wrap Up

The rest of our vacation was spent at the beach with two of our favorite families........The Maes' and The Nachreiner's!!!!!

Breaking News!

We interrupt these vacation posts with some breaking news!!!

Just in...

JOHNBOY IS GETTING HIS MIC-KEY BUTTON REMOVED ON AUGUST 1ST........EXACTLY SEVEN YEARS AFTER HIS SURGERY TO GET IT!!!!!

As most of you know, over the past seven years we've had a love/hate relationship with his feeding pump....

  We've spent many sleepless nights checking on him because he'd roll around and get tangled in his tubing (around his neck too.) We've cut holes in countless pairs of PJ's to run the tubing out near his feet. We've had NUMEROUS feeding mishaps including feeds on the walls, ceiling and all over everyone in his path:) We've taken his pump and entire suitcase of feeding supplies to every outing and on every vacation we've ever gone on.  We've spent hours upon hours in feeding therapy, BUT we knew it was just a matter of time before he'd overcome this obstacle (even though at times we thought we'd send him to college with his feeding tube.....hoping he wouldn't put beer in. HAHAHA!) 

We couldn't be more proud of him and are soooooooo excited to cross off the LAST thing on our list we were told he'd never do.  

From John's mouth...."You can do ANYTHING if you try, try, try."

Sooooooooo proud to be his Momma. 

Anyone and everyone is invited to our, "Peace Out" pump party.  Of course Johnboy will be picking the menu for this joyous celebration.

Legoland - Vaca Day 2

Legoland is by far our new favorite amusement park.  It was a first for all of us and definitely not the last.  

The kids loved it and had soooooo much fun.  I think Flat Stanley enjoyed himself too:)

Vaca Day 1

Our first day of vacation was spent....driving the six hours to the beach with our two crazies, our sweet niece, Ashley and Flat Stanley!!!!  When we arrived we quickly unpacked and headed straight to the beach for some fun in the sun.
