St. Pat's & Easter '13, Tennis

I hope everyone had a great Easter Holiday.  Here are our pics from St.Patty's through Easter.  Ton's of pics, so I'll make this quick.  Avery's Rumination Syndrome hasn't gotten better with the at home techniques.  The Pediatric GI decided we need to do some testing to make sure there are no physical problems.  I take Avery to a children's hospital a couple of hours away on Wednesday morning. They'll sedate her and do an endoscopy as well as place a sensor to measure reflux. She will stay 24hrs and will be released Thursday.  

Please keep my Mom in your prayers.  She had to have cysts removed from her spine.  She is having a difficult recovery after surgery. We're all hoping she'll feel as good as new soon.

The older kids were so sweet to let Salem play ring around the rosy with them

Pope & Pancakes Party

One of our friends threw a party to celebrate Pope Francis' inauguration. The Catholic schools were closed that day so all the kids had a blast.
