Two months old...and Happy 4th of July!

We had a fabulous 4th of July weekend here, and Koal continues to do well health wise and bless us daily with his smiles and coos!  He hit the two month mark on the 4th, so we had our well check with the pediatrician a couple days ago and he seems to be doing great.  Here are some new stats:

11 lbs  1o oz  -- 50%
24 inches  --  60%
And a bit of a “pin-head” number I don’t recall –- 20%
(don’t worry little man, your brother and sister were pin-heads, too, AND with all your crazy hair, who can tell anyway?!?! HA!)


We are so thankful that Koal continues to grow, eat and sleep well. Overall he is doing fabulous, and we are hopeful for another positive report when we see the cardiologist again the middle of this month. We also continue to pray daily for wisdom and understanding as we process through the “next step” surgical options we were presented with last month. We pray that God will open and close doors as needed and give us His insight and guidance as we continue to pray, research and look to the experts for wisdom concerning what to do next for our little guy’s heart. We are thankful that Koal continues to do well, as it means we are in no hurry to come to a decision at this point, and we are confident that God will show us His plan in the next four to six months so we will know how to proceed. Thank you all for your continued prayers for us, the doctors, and everyone involved with these decisions. No matter what happens, may God be glorified in all of this.

Here are a few shots from the 4th. Special thanks to our friend Kristyn who was able to capture some cute ones (since my camera battery immediately died after ONE shot).
Koal appears to be rolling away!
The best family shot we could get
