So Happy Together....: July 2008

Thursday, July 17, 2008

Lori has been laid up for the past few days with a pretty good headache, so I am taking over the blogging responsibilities in the meantime. She is feeling much better now, so my duties will be short-lived. We had a baby Saturday night, and he has been in the NICU with meconium plugs in his large bowel. He is doing much better now, is feeding on his own, and will likely be able to come home on Friday! Thanks to all for your prayers and service. We will never be able to thank you enough!

A perfect 4th

What a wonderful 4th of July we were able to enjoy. We had remarkable weather for St. Louis, it only got up to 83 degrees and no trace of humidity. We took advantage of this small miracle and spent the entire day outside. The VP parade held in downtown St. Louis was the first item on our agenda. The kids loved the candy...shocker. After the parade we headed over to some friends for an amazing BBQ with 4 other families and ate ourselves silly...I loved it! That night we headed to a strip of grass to watch the fireworks. The kids loved the time waiting for the show as they just played more games with their friends. At the end of the day we were very fulfilled and exhausted. We really couldn't have asked for a more perfect day. We feel so fortunate to live in such a wonderful place...God Bless America!
