This summer is flying by fast! We been swimming and trying to stay cool. Liam has a little stuffy nose and having a hard time sleeping the last couple nights but today he has been sneezing the stuff i can't pull out with the suction. His Physical Therapy is coming up but i have been giving him lots of tummy time and now as soon as you put him on his tummy he rolls right to back, he doesn't want to be on his stomach at all!! Now to get him to roll from back to his tummy but i am sure with the Physical therapy he will be doing that before no time. We are going to be putting him in a jumper because he needs to get his legs strengthened up. I have lost my battery charger for the camera and will be posting pictures as soon as i find it. Here are some from last week of him eating and right before bedtime that i uploaded last week and haven't had the chance to put them up until now. Liam loves the pool and if you say Pool he gets really excited and kicks his legs, so we know he knows what pool means. Please pray that Liam's little stuffy nose doesn't turn into a full blown cold and he can sleep at night. Thanks for your continued prayers

He is getting so big! Liam looks like he loves his swing - thats one thing Misky doesnt care so much for, lol.

Is it tricky for you to get Liam to eat baby food for you? I have to trick Mariska into eating them some days, but its so worth it for those funny faces that make.

He looks like such a happy baby! His cheeks are so stinking cute. I'm starting to think that heart babies have jumbo cheeks, hahaha. They make them look sooo much bigger, which is always welcome.

Thanks for all the comments on our blog, I always look forward to what you write! I seem to have issues getting close family to read the blog, go figure. I guess I shouldnt tell them everything that happens before I write. :P

I'm glad you find a floating boat! and even better that its the same one, ya gotta love walmart... haha.

I'm looking forward to Liams first visit to the Zoo! its fun to see what expressions they will do or not make. mariska just looked at everything. I think her favorite part was the fances.

I'm sorry Liam has Misky stuffy nose!!! I'm praying that they just stay as the way they are and then get better. Mariskas had her stuffy nose for I think 2 weeks now. ugh. It has to be for all the smoke in the air, for all the fires in cali. I think thats the same time it all started for us. If I suction only makes her cry so the its ends up being worst. I had to buy more of baby vicks bath wash. Which seems to really help her breath. one nights when shes really stuffy I hold the vicks bottle to her nose for a sec, that seems to help her to breath so much better. Its still a little funny when I look at her and shes got this huge smile and little buggy bubble, oh I love the small little things that make you laugh.

Way to go Liam on staying off your tummy! hehe. let me know how PT goes. I think I'm going to push Misk's docs into getting her some PT time too. They (other heart parents) say it really helps. Liam play hard so you can get your legs strong!

pheww I think I'm done, now that I wrote you a short novel. We're thinking of your family in these fun times!

Dear all,
Thanks for the new pictures and updates. Tell Nana Sarah that I love the one with her and Liam! I'm sorry that I am late, again, with a comment - seems like the days just slip by so fast. I hope that Liam's stuffy nose is much better by now. He is doing so well with his therapy and hope he continues to get stronger. We are all doing well. Frank has his cataract surgery on Tuesday - my sister had both eyes done and did real well, so, Frank is hoping that he does too. Zach is in the summer program at his school in Camden, North Carolina. He likes it - they have 3 field trips a week e.g. a pool, museums, Chucky Cheese, etc. Debbie had called last week about an opening in the after-school program in September. She was told that the children who were in it last year OR those in the summer program had fist choice. If there was still an opening, he could take it. Without that after-school program, she didn't know what Zach would do until Jay could pick him up after work. So, she took the ONE OPENING that they had left in the summer program! GOD IS GOOD - we were so blessed that there was still one place available. He started on Monday, but, he spent Friday with us. I'll have withdraw if I only see him once a week on Sunday - it's hard to adjust after caring for him for the last 9 years! By the time he starts regular school we'll be used to it and we're going to try to make a trip down there once during the week. Well, enough news from our end! Just stay well and we send our love to the whole family. Love, hugs & kisses, Carol, Frank and the whole Wilson family

Its been a while since the last update. I'm sure no news is good news. I hope he's doing well with PT and is over the little stuffy nose. :)
