Immunologist... and then some...

We took ryan to the immunologist today because EVERY time we take him to church he gets sick. She ordered some bloodwork, which we went and got right away. Ryan was NOT happy, not surprisingly. but he was a trooper! the lady had to dig around to find his vein too :( poor kid. at the end she said i'm sorry bud and he stopped crying and said, oh, she's sorry, oh she's sorry. and that was the end of the crying!

so that was the only thing on the calendar but of course the stuff that really fills your day is the stuff that's not on the calendar...
we went to the bank, and funny ryan quote, we walked in and he says "ooooh, they don't have cake anymore!" LOL we went the day the branch opened, a few months ago and they had cake. they thought he was too cute so they gave him a water bottle.

we also got recruited to take 43 dozen ears of corn to the grocery store for our amish friends! never done that before, very fun! and tomorrow is sarahs 18th birthday!!! i had so much fun talking to her!

and then on the way back from king of prussia we stopped at unisys and saw my dad and all my old friends! i miss you brad, it was SO good to see you!!! we walked out on the cold floor, it's so strange how smells bring back memories, as soon as we walked in i was overcome with memories from another life! ryan and naomi had a great time sitting at poppi's desk!

GI Update

We took the kids to the GI doc on friday.  Naomi isn't ready to be off her meds, but that's ok we'll try again in a couple months.  Ryan is doing well and the doctor isn't threatening a feeding tube right now!  We're going to take him to an immunologist to see if there's anything we can do about him getting sick EVERY time we take him to church. 

Barnstormers Game!

Ryan had a great time at the barnstormers game last night. even though they lost 8-1. He did watch some of the game and was SO excited to be there. but he also hung out at the play area a lot, mostly the carousel! We had a great time hanging out with the downingtown and leola mantheys :)

 

 

 

 

 

 

Happy August!

Sorry about the lack of posts. :( My perfectionism sets in and says if i can't do every post that i want to i shouldn't do it at all. so i'm going taking a new approach and if i miss something i'll try and catch up on it later but in the meantime i'll keep posting! so here's a cute pic of naomi! ryan and naomi and tim all had a fever/flu thing recently and naomi was the last to have it and is finally getting over it. today she had that big grin back on her face! i really missed it!

Scoped

Naomi had her scope done today. She was a real trooper! Super mad when she woke up from the anesthesia but after that she was a little angel all day! Everything looked good and he took some biopsies to check for allergies and make sure it's just 'regular reflux'. this is very good news! thank you all for your prayers!

Ryan and Ella

Naomi's Upper GI

I'll have to play catch-up on my next post cause i missed a few things, but for now...

Today Naomi had her upper GI and everything looked like it was in the right place! yay! She did really well, just was angry that we held her on the table for all that time. She did drink some barium, enough for them to do the procedure :) She's much happier now at home with a full belly! Thanks for all the prayers!

Kiddos

Naomi is 6 months old!!! I can't believe it! And Ryan has finally passed 25 pounds!! yay!!

Me and My Great Gram

Ryan is VERY attached to his Great Gram, it's so cute!...

Katie and Andrews Wedding!!

Last weekend was Katie and Andrews wedding!!! Or as Ryan calls it, "The Big wedding!" It was such a perfect day! The weather was fantastic and everything went so well! Ryan Jay was the ring bearer, Naomi was the flower girl and Tim was her flower daddy (she couldn't wiggle down the aisle on her own), and I was the matron of honor. So it was an all out family affair! We had a GREAT time! Congratulations and we love you Katie and Andrew! Here's a LOT of pics and there's more on facebook.

rehearsal, the dinner was at lock nairn (sp), it was great, thanks brian!








Katie was SO excited the whole day! and Ryan can't stop talking about the wedding, he thinks we're gonna do it again. Before the ceremony the organist rang the chimes and ryan yelled, "uh, did somebody ring the doorbell?" then halfway up the aisle he says "and people are smiling at you!"
