The Amazing Dunking, Fire Fighting Landen!

Playing "shoot" has been a favorite activity for Landen for quite sometime. But recently he has been dunking the ball. This is the set up. For some reason the wrapping paper was completely necessary for the dunking process. Carter is helping his brother.

Anything that can fit through the hoop is being dunked.

We have been "dunking" everyday for the last few days. I think it is all the Jazz talk going on in the house.

Landen the fire fighter! This is a costume that cousin Braden passed down to us. Landen discovered it in the closet yesterday and wanted to put it on right then. It is a little big, but he was totally loving it!

I also had a question. I need to take some reading material with me to the hospital. Does anyone have any good recommendations? I have just finished reading the second book in the "Fallen" series. (Very good by the way! I would highly recommed it.)

Here we go again!

Carter gets his second and hardest surgery (so far) on Thursday, March 3rd. I am really nervous and I try not to think about it (Is that bad?). I am told the recovery will be at least three days in the hospital with some PICU time. We can come home when they get him off IV fluids and off Morphine. Then I'm up for nights of no sleep and a sad baby. Hopefully Carter flys past all the "might be's" and everything goes better than according to the plan. In the mean time I will stay in unhealthy denial until Tuesday when I start packing for the hospital stay.

We have been so blessed to have wonderful supportive family and friends. Rob is doing wonderful in school even with all the stress he is under. I am so proud of how hard he works to support us. Let's just say I have been counting my blessings one by one. We have adorable kids who suddenly say things like "It freaks me out!" And love their mommy even after all the mistakes I have made. Kids are the best. The are such a challenge but I love them so so much.

Thanks for all the love and support!
