Alligator Moons & Chicks


Ben is as energetic as ever. Here he is wrestling his blowup alligator. He is also riding "the rocket", doing puzzles, building blocks, and watching WAY TOO MUCH televsion!

I didn't dare put the moon picture on.... Ben's diaper needs to be changed about every hour or so because they have him on IV fluids. That means we go through a lot of diapers fast. Unfortunately the package of diapers they brought us are defective. The adhesive strips aren't securely attached to the diaper so we spent the day being mooned by Ben.




Here are the chicks! Alaina, Elizabeth, and Megan arrived in Seattle this morning and Ben is so happy! They spent the day in the hospital with us. We decorated flip flops, went swimming, and ate popcorn while watching a "chick flick" of course! The hard moment was bedtime. Alaina had to carry Megan out of here crying because she wanted to stay with mommy. Mommy was holding Ben who was crying and saying, "I want to go!". Mommy wanted to go too... We still long to be together as a family.
