I have been SUCH a horrible blogger lately! Things are quite busy, but that's nothing unusual. I recently started back working, and I have been ty-yurd! Here a few pictures from last week. I finally got a new camera! Now if I could just figure out how to use it...

These two were supposed to be taking a nap. Instead they wanted to share a little brotherly love.

Not sure what was so exciting about this shoe, but Evan climbed in Ryan's seat to check it out.

The boys enjoyed their roasted chicken and mashed potatoes. Ryan is amused with himself because he managed to rip his bib off...again.


Note the food in Evan's hair! They insist on feeding themselves now.
Well it's official. Ryan and Evan are walking! Having TWO walking babies is a lot of work. I mean a lot. A lot, lot. Sometimes I just sit back and watch them and smile. I won't complain at all. I won't ever wish that they'd just sit down. We came too close to not having these moments. That's one thing that prematurity did for me. It made me more thankful, and less whiny. I am in constant awe of these two miracles among us. And I KNOW it's nothing but the Lord.
Please keep Evan in your prayers. On Friday he will have a surgical procedure to open blocked tear ducts. His eyes tear all the time because the ducts are blocked. It's quite common and has nothing to do with being born early. Sometimes the ducts clear on their own, but his would have done so by now if they were going to do it. The longer we wait to have this done the more major the surgery will be. He'd have to be intubated and they'd have to put tubes in if we wait. I've already put it off long enough. This procedure is outpatient and should take about 20 minutes. I think it's similar to what happens when babies get tubes put in their ears. Still, it's a procedure, and we're praying. I'll be glad when it's over so my baby boy can be done with this.

    I have already been praying for Evan's tear duct procedure every since you told me. Everything will be fine. All of the pics are adorable, showing how close the boys are to each other and how well they play together. Let them walk all over and play and have fun.
