He’s in love with Callie.  We keep offering to wrap her in a bow for him.

Sunday = church.

Perks of being the pastor’s kiddos…you can run around before others arrive.

Sunday afternoon is Trevy’s turn to be athletic – Special Olympics.

Trevy is quite able to jump by himself…but he likes holding hands with cute girls.  In love

Family photo shoots are always tough for us (but aren’t they for everyone?). So Uncle B being ever the amateur photographer offered to head to the beach at sunset for a try…

Jonathan wasn’t happy that his brother failed to mention how slouchy he looked. LOL.  Personally, I loathe having my picture taken slouching or otherwise.  It was a sacrifice of love. Smile

The last is my favorite. 

 

I love Trevy’s scrunchy face…Toby’s “do I really have to do this” face…and Bristel’s dimples.

Uncle Trevy.  Whoever was wearing Uncle B’s hat was the “Uncle”.  Trevy loved that game.  Smile

I love, love, love the beach pictures. I love the one with the 3 kids walking away holding hands with Trevy turning around. Beautiful.

I'm a sucker for a scrunchy face!

And Ashley...that's definitely my fave picture! Although Bristel's hair totally needs some attention! I wish she would let me cut it!

Wonderful!
They turned out great! Jonathon wasn't all slouchy...just keeping children in place and you look beautiful...your smile really does shine, so that's where your kiddos get it from!
I love the one of the three walking and Trevy looking back....that's my favorite...kinda whimsical.
kristi said…
Yes. What Ashley said! And your kids are absolutely beautiful!

No, I don’t know him personally

  I’ve had several emails today asking if I know Mike W. of Marissa’s Bunny personally.    Trevy’s blog was linked on her site.  Although it’s not now.     I’ve posted here and there at his request.  Because…well…we’re a community.  Us IS families.  And Marissa is wicked cute.  Her daddy has a way with words.  Also who wouldn’t want the world to know about an iPad give-away?    But aside from that…I know about as much as you do.    We’ve never met in person.    Our only communication has been cyber.    I’m a ginormous sap and as such would love to believe that all is right.  That the sweet, beautiful families who were promised iPads will be getting them tonight.  Tomorrow at the latest.  That no one has been lied to.  That the personal thank you for your generosity email I sent him on behalf of other IS families I’ve grown to love and was thrilled to learn w...

the great answer hunt in the land of Infantile Spasms

If I've said it once... I've thought it a million times more. How it's like the more I research...and discover...about IS. The more blurry everything becomes. For every answer found. A dozen questions are unearthed. Remember our whole ARX saga ? Yeah...that threw me for a loop. So much so...that I never went on to post the end of the story. Thus far... See...the unbelievable in the world of genes happened. Because this is IS-ville after all. After Dr. Genes sampled Trevy's ARX gene on a whim...a whim which revealed an unkown (meaning the first time this specific change was found) mild mutation...she proceeded to send Toby's blood off to mad scientist central. With assurances that this was totally unnecessary . She was convinced that Trevor's ARX mutation was the underlying cause of his Infantile Spasms. And that Typical Toby...would prove to be just that. Typical...at least in all areas mutate-able. And yet...Toby's ARX blood sample revealed THE SAME MIL...

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...
