cause they make me smile (a picture marathon)

I suck at captioning photos...so I'll spare you!



But I *heart* snapping them!



And these are my fave subjects!





Okay...so this set needs a lil' explanation...


Toby "injured" his ankle racing around like a wild child. And Bristel enjoyed playing doctor to fix him all up for tonights game. Against "the good team"!
















Am I the only one who wants to pinch that cheek mug?

It is so interesting that you shoot Trevor a different way during your photo session. It's very representative of something subconscious, an emotional component that is there that is different than the other kids. Not better, not more that's not what I mean, not something like that. I can't quite explain it actually...and I may be totally reading into it myself.

All great photos though, very cute family.

They are super cute, huh?

You know Ken...I actually agree with you. It's always difficult to label those "different" connections for fear of sounding like there's favortism. I try really hard not to favor any of them over the other. They each have their good days...and ummm not so good... I try to celebrate the unique stuff each of them contribute to our family.

And just like my connection with Toby...my first born...my super athletic boyfriend...is different. And my connection with my girl...my snuggle bug...hang at the mall together Bristel bean...is different.

So my connection with Trevy is undeniably different. And super emotional. Because we don't have words to help us communicate with each other...we rely A LOT on body language and eye contact. Sometimes it feels like I really KNOW what he's thinking. And visa versa. We have a very strong heart bond...

And because everything comes SO hard for him...I celebrate his accomplishments with a passion! Then again...when Toby smacks a good hit I'm the jumping & screaming mommy in the bleachers! And when Bristel says funny things...I belly laugh embarssingly loud...cause I think she's the funniest wittiest girl around! But they don't have to word as hard as Trevy to do new things...and it's different ya know.

Anyway...I think it's funny (as in interesting) that it can be noticed in the way I take his picture. Although some of that is...he happens to be much easier to catch natural too!

Anyway...food for foder for another post someday I'm sure...

I cried when I got the news

I felt like such a heel not going with Trevy for his first post hemi EEG. Yeeeeeees...Jonathan went with him. Yeeeeeees...he's just as good as me. But still! He's my baby! I was instead sitting on floor 6 east waiting for Neurology to get their boots here and help me sort out this medicine mess! Seriously it's like a bad joke...how many Neurologists does it take to write a bloody script? And fax prior authorizations? Cause Trevy's been back for hours now. And I'm STILL waiting! Anyway... Jonathan had just stepped out to meet the pizza delivery guy when Dr. EEG made his rounds. Of course I asked immediately if he had read the EEG. Of course he had. That's why he was there afterall. And I cried when he told me... that for the first time in almost two years. For the first time since this whole crazy mess began. my baby's EEG is completely normal! Side Note: It's super fun to sob in front of Japanese men and watch them squirm When I kept repeati...

I sure hope...

they grow back curly! Saw the "unknown" flashing on the face of my cell phone and knew who it was. Who it had to be. Dr. Fellow. My eyes met Grams' and I nodded. Grams has a pool, see. For super hot days like today. We're also having a septic installed. Which meant no water or facilities at my place. But those weren't really the reasons I was there. Close to mom. The purple ringing thing in my hand was. Only I wasn't prepared for it to be ringing SO darn soon. Shortly after lunch instead of dinner! I swallowed. Took a deep breath. And clicked connect. Dr. Fellow has a very nice phone tone. Clear. Hint of compassion. If only a stitch of humor were added...it'd be heavenly. But there was no humor. Just business. He's very direct. I'm learning that about him. Which explains his short hello. Followed by immediately pushing into the news. Being that it was a unanimous consensus. The entire surgical committee feels Trevor is a good candidate. And then p...

it's like being asked to the prom...

only MUCH MUCH bigger! I had noticed (yes...I stalk my site meter!) that a government ISP had logged onto Trevor's blog. Whoever it was had spent a good deal of time hanging out too. Followed a few minutes later by a government ISP...hailing from Washington. As in DC! My eyebrow raised. It was just kinda odd. Note-able odd. You know? Anyway...later that day (last week) I was folding laundry & thinking my crazy insane thoughts. Along these lines... I hope I'm not saying anything I shouldn't! Maybe I made somebody mad? Wait a minute! I live in America! I'm allowed to say anything I want! Aren't I???? A shout from the other room interrupted my thoughts before I had a chance to further mull. It was Jonathan. I had just received an email. **Side note...he's always doing that! Reading my emails! Sheesh!*** The said email was from a US Senator's aide! Asking if he could speak with me. Little ole' hardly has time to splash some make-up on ...
