Mother's Day this year was bittersweet. Our family is so incredibly blessed to have so many precious little ones! At the same time, we are still praying constantly for Baby Tate and Casey. As an update from the last post, he is still on oxygen and has finally been diagnosed with pneumonia. He is improving more every day, and today they actually removed his IV. The plan is to begin weaning him again from the oxygen today. He is nursing like a champ, and he is such a peaceful baby boy! We know for sure he will be in the hospital until Friday. Casey was discharged Sunday, but is still staying some as a guest. She is basically supermom, and she is handling everything so well. Still, this wasn't something she (or any of us) expected. Please remember Tate, Casey, Derek and Fischer in your prayers. We are ready for him to be home so they can all be together safe and sound. Not to mention, Fischer is yet to meet this baby brother we've been talking about for months now. Can't you just see the excitement :)
Fischer and Casey on Mother's Day.
Kyle and Collin went to church with Nana and Aunt Eloyce and then took them out for lunch. Brantlee and I went to the hospital to visit and celebrate the day together.
Checking out the hospital lima beans- ha
Seriously, what would we do without moms?
When we all got home, Collin and Brantlee spent some time in B's room decorating for a "mother's day party." See the bows? They were strewed all over her room ;)
And the necklaces hung on the furniture. How sweet of them!
Then we played outside for a little while in the sunshine. Collin is in heaven here playing in the water. (Notice B in the background. She stays in trouble for shaking and pulling over Daddy's fruit trees. I find it hilarious typical that she is doing it in this picture.)
Then we visited MeeMaw, Paw Paw, and Pammie, which the kids LOVED. This is how I found the them when we pulled in the garage late that afternoon.
More pictures to come later from the weekend !
