August has been quite the whirlwind. The 3rd of the month brought me to my surgery to biopsy my hand tumor. The surgeon said that the bone was "obliterated", but we also found out that it is NOT CANCER!!!! We will decide on the 13th of September when the next surgery to repair the bone will be. We can handle any of that minus the cancer...for sure. Soon after the surgery we headed to Cincinnati to take a little vacation and celebrate Henri's second birthday. I can not even believe two years has passed since I met that little boy for the first time. He continues to amaze us every day. He loves to sing, especially his ABC'S and enjoys playing peek a boo with Graham. Graham is endlessly entertained by Henri.
This year, unlike last, Henri happily ate some of his birthday cake!! It was super fun to watch. He even had time to ham it up for the camera while eating his cake.
The Thomas cake brought some really big smiles from Henri.
While we were home we also celebrated Emma's second birthday and all of the grand kids were able to play together. Those times are so far and few, but a joy to just watch!
Graham started therapy recently and has made some pretty impressive progress thus far. He saw the neurologist today and is undergoing to some testing to find out why he has some gross motor delays. We are hopeful that he just needs more time to overcome his obstacles. We have enjoyed many many family outings this past month and have really learned not to take any of them for granted. He has learned to sit up on his own and is learning to enjoy the freedom to reach further and interact more with Henri while he sits up.
Serious baby at work here!!! He really loves being able to have so much more to grab at. Sweet baby browns there.
Here are a few rare family shots of an impromptu visit to forest park. We had a wonderful time watching both of the boys enjoy the fountain.
Hope this finds everyone well and thankful for the simple things everyday.
