Jed's Mom Update

Just so that you all know...my mom Sharon was diagnosed with cancer last Thursday and had surgery for it today. She underwent a "whipple procedure" and the doctors found that the cancer hadn't spread very much. They found a tumor around her bile duct, but they think they have removed all of it. She'll be in the hospital for the next week and a half recovering from the surgery, and then she'll probably have more treatment for the cancer in the coming weeks. We just want to ask that you keep her in your prayers! Thanks!

Josiah Update

Josiah had his "two month" check up yesterday...he's 11 weeks old now and he now weighs 14 pounds, 15 ounces (I just say 15, it's close enough) and is 25.5 inches long. Such a big boy. He handled his shots like a champ and smiled for everyone. Here's a great shot Jed caught of the kids a few days ago



This picture shows what our daughter does after we put her to bed at night. We don't know who she takes after!

There you have it, our month in a nutshell. Happy 2009 to all.
