Some very exciting news.......

Mr. Avery has gained some much needed weight. WOOOHOOO. He is a whopping 18.1 pounds. This has taken alot of hard work over the last few weeks but has certainly paid off. He seems like a real baby, KWIM (know what I mean) for those wondering what those initials stand for!!!! He feels plump even though the average person would not describe him as that but for us he seems plump. He is just such a cutie. We are keeping him on the diet b/c he is doing so well. I just cannot believe how quickly he has transformed from such a frail little guy to a baby. I believe this is all prayer and God's work.

Isaiah is doing well, although his tone has changed which means he is having much more involuntary movements which affects other things. Even changing his diaper can be quite the challenge. Other than that he seems to be my Isaiah.

Janessa is really enjoying gymnastics. She is also signed up for basketball which is not at all thrilled about, probably b/c dad is a basketball coach. But we think she will be good at it and at least needs to give it a try.

All I can say right now is that we are blessed and life is good. I hope it is the same for everyone reading this. Our life could be sooo much worse. Just think of all the families in the Dominican Republican that are devasted by the storm (many dead, without food, homes and essentials) we are just blessed.
