June-Our new puppy! Now I have two girls that poop on the floor.
July -Kensley and Daddy with the cows at PawPaw Free's.
NICU reunion June- Kensley with her Neo-natologist, Dr. ContrerasSummer update: We made it through the summer. Things are rather steady around here. Kensley is 15 months old and running, not walking all over the place, which is a big problem for mom because she is attached to a feeding bag that is too big for her to carry, sooo, I have to follow her every where she goes. You can image how little gets done around here, but she is very cute, and a joy to watch. Kaydee and Cooper have really enjoyed this summer in comparison to the previous summer. Lots of swimming and play dates and fun. Kensley and by necessity, me, were both in the hospital most of last summer(2008). In fact we went into the hospital on the 4th of July 2008, so you can image how excited Cooper was to shoot off fireworks this year. We went to our friend's house and together we enjoyed our $20.00 of fireworks as if they were a million dollar show. Praise be to God. Kensley had another appointment in Omaha on the 3rd and 4th of August. She made the trip well. The appointment was great. Her small bowel series showed little dilation and lots of length. Yes, I said lots of length. Don't get too excited. Her bowel is still short, but it has approximately tripled in length from the portion left after the surgery just after birth. This is what the doctors hope for, but it does not always happen. So, we praise God again. Her bacterial overgrowth does not appear to be out of hand at this time, but her stools are very liquid, about 3 or 4 a day. And we expect that this will be our life from now on. We can not say that we are out of the wood or that we see the end of the tunnel, but we are encouraged. Praise be to God. Tana

Yeahhhhh! i knew that you were headed to Omaha the first week of August so I have been checking this blog several times a day waiting for the update....I know pathetic....I should just call you people, but I worry it will not be at a good time! :-) Glad to hear that things are looking up! We continue to pray for you and have people ask all the time how that little miracle baby is doing. It will be great to give them all a good report. Hope the kiddos will have a good school year, MOrgan and MIles started back on 13th...said it is about as good as school can be.:-) Take care...we will keep praying!!!!
