Tim is preparing Lizzy for fall sundays.  In the morning church, and the rest of the day football...

 

Chris wants to say:   "congrats to my friend Suni from college who got married to Ryan last night in IL!  I wish I could have been there!!!!! " :(  Here is a picture that one of my other college friends, Crystal, just sent.

 

This may be a surprise to many of you, but Tim has been quite sick for the last 5 weeks or so.  He has been to the emergency room two times and had to stay at the hospital for a few days.  He has had MANY tests, and it does not seem that it is anything life threatening - but it is clearly effecting his quality of life!  We have had many "mis-diagnoses" (from anxiety, to heart attacks, strange virusus, bacterial infections, mono, etc).   I put quotes around "mis-diagnoses" because the doctors never acutaly said he had any of these for sure, but thought it was likely and therefore, have done MANY tests and have prescribed drugs which ended up making him feel worse.  So for ~ 4 weeks he felt sick and very exhausted.  Just this week he finally went back to work.  He still is tired - but seems to be getting better.  We still do not know what he had!  It seems jsut a bad virus which with all the stress at work and long hours (he hada week of working ~ 15 or more hours a day), that his body just gave up for a bit....  It has been been tough because classes started about the same time as Tim getting sick.  So I am sorry if I have been remiss in posting things here, calling you back, or emailing!   I will try to get better.

 

Aunt Deb was here for a few days.  It was so nice to have her visit!  On Saturday the three girls drove to Sedona for a little fresh (cool) air!

 

Daddy and Lizzy had fun with the special toddler crayons!

 

She may look like she knows what she is doing with the spoon.  However, do not let looks be deceiving!

 

Lizzy is just go-go-go!  Half way through taking off her shoes and socks she then decides to play with her kitchen.  However quickly she is off again with her spoon to find a new activity!

 

Here Lizzy seems to be quite comfortable lounging on daddy.

 

We converted our quest room to a play room for Lizzy.  Here she is enjoying the room and her new musical ride!

 

As you can see by the pictures - Lizzy loves bath time!
