Our 1st hospital visit

As many of you know August has had major stomach issues along with other problems from day one. So, when we have a week of him "not being himself" we just assume its the same old stuff, but on July 4th, after quite a while of him not being ok and more and more issues presenting themselves it was time to take him to the hospital.

You NEVER want to see your baby in a hospital room! After hours and hours we left with out any answers. A couple days later we got the test results back and August had contracted E. Coli. awesome. Fortunately, despite everyones concerns his little system fought it off well and was better within just a few days. Thank you God!

Grandparents visit!!!!!

In the beginning of July my wonderful Grandparents and Great Uncle came to visit!

Me and my Grandma- this makes my heart happy!

We took Aug to the river to play

Dad, my hubby, Aug and Uncle Ernie

We had so much fun with them! I love hearing all their stories and just being around them... I hope this can happen again soon!!!
