Grandma's Hat

To say Victor is obsessed with my Mom's hat is an understatement... he has been known to tell her, " ....my hat!" That is the first thing he asks for when he sees her:)

Karolina --- double digits!

Karolina turned ten on Sunday, that is crazy! She had a fun weekend. She saw African Cats, went out for Baskin Robbins, had two parties with family! that included two cakes.. which included cake in her lunch for a few days:) She even decorated her own cake this year! She is a lucky girl to have so many family and friends who love her and remembered her on her birthday. Thank you.

re-done!

Felipe re-did a chair that Daisy had given us years ago last weekend. I thought he did a great job and I love it in our bedroom. The best part was it only cost us $4 for the fabric and the paint was left over from another project!( lovin'the Behr avacado Hannah!) I love seeing something old become something new again:) Victor enjoyed helping Felipe. He kept saying, "Paint the chair!"over and over!

Like Father Like Son...

May has been a little crazy for our family. Felipe ended up in the ER via ambulance on his birthday in an incredible amount of pain in his back... he couldn't even walk. They did an MRI and discovered he has 3 herniated discs. Luckily he is feeling ALOT better.... but needless to say not the best birthday memories for him. Victor had surgery early this morning...he had his 2nd set of tubes put in and his adenoids removed. Poor boy has had unresolved ear infections for 7 weeks now, since his first set of tubes fell out. We had no luck with antibiotics and the fluid just wouldn't go away --- there was an incredible amount of pressure in both of his ears, poor boy. The surgery went great and the doctor who takes care of Victor is incredibly kind and gentle. Victor was happy to leave the hospital and watch "Buzz" and drink his "apple juice!" It has been such a blessing to have my Mom living so close to us... she helps us out so much and we are so grateful:) We are ready for a summer full of lazy days, swimming and having fun!
