Preschool Graduation, Brownie Bridging, and Hip Dysplagia

We've had some important events this past week, so we thought we'd share some photos! Zach graduated from preschool this week! He and his best friend Owen enjoyed the refreshments!

This is Zach walking across the stage getting his diploma. Click on this picture to make it bigger...the expression on his face is priceless!!
Savannah got to attend a Girl Scout Bridging Ceremony. She bridged from Brownies to Juniors. This is them singing a brownie song.


This is Savannah crossing the Bridge!

Nathan was diagnosed with Hip dysplagia this week. We had noticed that he had been walking funny the last week or so...his right foot is turned out to the side when he walks...so we took him in! So after x-rays, blood work, and ultrasounds...they discovered that he has hip dysplagia...so now he has to sleep in this super fancy brace to try and get his hip to "remodel" into a better, more symmetrical shape on the right side! It makes it impossible for him to sit up, roll over or move around in bed. I don't think he's too crazy about it...but its better than surgery...so hopefully it will help so that we can avoid that. We started the week hoping and praying he didn't have cancer (which he doesn't...all the tests came back good), so I am honestly grateful to be ending the week with nothing but hip dysplagia!!

We hope all goes well with Nathan's hip brace and that his hip responds quickly!

That is one little tough guy you have. He has had to put up with a lot already in his short life. But, he has been a trooper and grateful that it is things that can be fixed. Give him a big hug from us.
