Summer so far

   Elijah is doing so well! He is meeting with a infant specialist and a occupational therapist twice a week. We are working on lots of tummy time to get his head nice and strong so he can hold it up! He is doing so good. He is smiling, cooing and laughing! He loves his daddy. The girls just love to sit with him, talk to him, kiss him, and cuddle with him. He will be getting an MRI in the middle of July. We may possibly be bumping the date up due to the fact that his shunt has not been draining properly like it should. His soft spot is full and bulgy when we get him up. It shouldn't really be doing that. Elijah had his first vacation to the lake.Since is was suppose to be 108 here we decided the smart thing to do was FLEE the opposite direction of the heat!! It was just a day trip but he pretty much slept the entire time. So- I would say he enjoyed it. I mean, who doesn't enjoy a vacation where alls you do is sleep? We are doing another day trip this Saturday to the beach. It will hopefully be a nice day. 

We have tried multiple times to plant tomatoes in our backyard and it usually is awful. The dirt, I mean clay is super fun to deal with. So, Brad took on the task of building a planter box. We planted two tomatoes, a squash, and transplanted a pepper plant that wasn't growing when we put it in the ground. So far so good.We are so excited about the possibility of fresh tomatoes from our garden. That means lots of  my AMAZING homemade tomato soup, recipe to come soon this summer! Here are some new photos!
