I just wanted to post of how blessed we are.
We got the details of Gabriel's ear tube surgery today as it is scheduled for Monday. It isn't until 10:45am and we have to be at the hospital 90 minutes prior to that time. This is a different procedure than the last time he had tubes as we were home and back by 8:00am (granted this was over 1 1/2 years ago). We thought we could bring Noah with us as we know Gabriel is going to be a handful when they take him from us for the surgery and we need to support each other. Noah can't be at the hospital and be quiet in the recovery room for 2+ hours. We didn't want to send just one parent with Gabe and one to stay home with Noah as I know I cannot handle Gabriel crying and screaming as they take him from us (in addition to being crabby because he cannot eat or drink that morning at all).

Our good friends have just had a baby themselves and our other good friends have young kiddos too. With no family here we are stuck. But Nana Jan is coming to the rescue on Sunday afternoon to be here. Thank you Nana/Mom. You are the greatest! Thank God for her.
Also, with the Bjork family moving here next week we won't have these problems again hopefully since family will be close. Not that we don't want or need Nana because we do! Just thankful that we can have a super back-up too.
Onto a lighter note, Gabe has enjoyed the outdoors all week. See the new photos of our big boy and our outdoor garden!
